Folklore I I: Tales of Yanibo Print

Growing up, we were told the tales of Ijapa (the tortoise). the most mischievous character in all lores. Ijapa, the trickster. He has a knack for going against the rules. Well, it doesn't usually end greatly for him. Always losing more than his greed could get him. This was how we knew actions have consequences. All that glitters isn't gold. And sometimes, less is more. Ijapa is not alone in these stories. He has a partner, a wife. She doesn't seem to like taking the spot light. She's humble, well meaning, cautious, and sometimes victim of Ijapa schemes herself. In one story, Yanibo and Ijapa were a quite successful couples. They were rich. But Yanibo couldn't bear a child. One day after learning that a herbalist could cure their barriness. Ijapa went to the herbalist. The Babalawo handed a concoction he had prepared with bush meat, mushrooms and fish stew to Ijapa with clear instructions that he must not eat out of it, only his wife. Well, he did the exact opposite and ate it all. This is basically, the life of Yanibo the wife of Ijapa
