Big tribe make new rule. Let police bonk car-drive-self. Ugh. But rule no say what happen after bonk. Rule sleep. No work for many suns.


Big news from Tribe of Sun! Big chiefs make new rule for Magic Moving Caves. These caves on wheels move with no person inside. Sometimes, Magic Caves do dumb thing, stop in middle of path, or get confused by squirrel. Now, tribe Club-Carriers can give angry grunt when Magic Cave break rule. Club-Carriers can point special rule-stick and say, "You bad Magic Cave!" But new rule make many heads scratch. Rule say Club-Carriers can be angry, but no say what happen after. Does Magic Cave have to give up shiny rock? Does it get a big bonk on the wheel? No one know! Even stranger, new rule sleep for many, many suns. It not wake up until after six more cold times. Is big strange rule. We see what happen. Grok, a mammoth hunter: "Me see Magic Moving Cave stop for no reason! Block my path to good hunting spot. Me glad Club-Carriers can yell at it now. Yell loud!" Zola, a skilled berry-finder: "One time, Magic Cave try to join mammoth herd. Very confused. But if Club-Carrier give it angry look, what then? Does the cave feel shame? Me think rule need more think-time." Chief Korg, Keeper of the Stone Tablets: "Rule is first step. Like laying first rock for new cave. First, we say 'can bonk.' Later, we find right size rock for bonking. Is slow. Have patience." Story by Ugg from Caveman Talk Fire, on the scene.
