Crocodile Balances the World, preview

The world had fallen out of balance. 
The Dragon King of the South Ocean is missing (Where did he go?) 
Nothing is on its axis. 
Who will hold up the world? 
There are no more Dragons.  

A Crocodile offers to try. 
He says, “I am large, and the closest thing to a Dragon. I will try”. 
He steps up onto the back of the Great Turtle and grasps the World
And lifts it up and balances it on the end of his nose. 
As he does this he himself becomes a Dragon.


“Crocodile Balances the World and Becomes the Dragon King” 

The world had fallen out of balance as the Dragon King of the South Ocean had gone missing (Where did he go?). Nothing remained in its proper axis, and there were no more Dragons to uphold the world. 

Amidst the imbalance, a Crocodile stepped forward and offered to try. He stated, “I am large and the closest thing to a Dragon. I will give it a shot.” With determination, he mounted the back of the Great Turtle, seized the World, and carefully balanced it on the end of his nose.

In this selfless act, the Crocodile underwent a transformation, becoming a Dragon himself—the savior the world needed. 

The style of this tale draws inspiration from my Bee micro-dramas, where the Crocodile embodies the role of an Everyman, earnestly striving to restore equilibrium to the World. His humility only enhances his noble efforts and aspirations.
