This short story is about a lesson from disregarding an excellent moral compass.

Although this book highlights the peaceful, harmonious friendship between the Ajapa (Tortoise) and Ako (Great Heron) at the beginning, that friendship was tested because of Tutu's lack of self-restraint. After falling from the sky, Ajapa's action left an undeniable legacy of a cracked shell on the back of all tortoises.
