New magic-eye rock make long waits for cave-people! Sky-bird stops, tempers short. Chief say it get better, keep tribe safe.


Ugh! New magic-eye stone make big problem at sky-beast landing places. Cave-people stand in long, long snake-lines, grunting and stamping feet. Not-from-this-side tribes cannot pass quick, make many mad faces and loud shouts. This mean much trouble for trade and good food for tribe! Important supplies of shiny-rocks and warm furs stuck. Big-brains in charge say new magic will smooth out, make tribe safe from bad-stranger. But for now, much waiting, much hungry! ### Local Commentary Ug, local berry picker, say: 'My basket get empty! Cannot bring sweet berries to market if stuck waiting for sun to set many times!' Grom, brave mammoth hunter, grunt: 'Saw many small cave-children crying, their mothers tired. Sky-beast was there, but no fly for them! Bad magic!' Korg, our Wise Village Elder, wave his stick and boom: 'Tribe must be patient. New ways sometimes bring much pain first, then much gain. We watch, we wait, we keep fire burning bright!' Story by Zog from Caveman Talk Fire, on the scene.
