New wall-story say right-side big-men try make Great-Mud-Cave better. Their rule-changes bring many new bad things.


A new wall-story by wise old-story-teller, called Mason, now say many bad-thing happen. The big-brain men from the 'right-side' tribe, they try to fix rules for little cave-people learn-time, for sleep-caves, and for stop-bad-man-talk. But this new wall-story say their big-fix-ideas make things more broken, like sharp rock in a soft berry patch. Many people now scratch heads and wonder if old ways were better than new 'fixes' from loud-talkers. This big news makes us think hard about our own fire-circle rules here. If big-men in Great-Mud-Cave make big mess with their new rules, maybe our tribe must be extra careful with shiny new ideas. We need strong caves and big hunting for mammoth, not new rules that stop our spear-throwers or make our warm fire dim. Bad rules can scare away even the fastest deer or make the berry bushes dry, leaving us with empty bellies. ### Local Commentary Pebble: Local Berry Picker: "Me try find sweet-berries, but new rules make paths dark and scary. Not good for safe picking!" Stone-Jaw: Mammoth Hunter: "Me saw big-men argue 'bout best way hunt. Too much talk, not enough hunt! Mammoth got away!" Wise-Grug: Village Elder: "New ways sometimes make old problems bigger. We must learn from wall-stories, listen to ground, not just loud talk. Fire must stay warm for all."
