• Why the Bat Flies at Night Aug 22, 2025

  

  Listen, children, to the tale of Ɔprapra the bat, who tried to belong to both worlds and ended up belonging to neither, teaching us about the importance of loyalty and choosing our allegiances wisely.

  Long ago, when there was a great war between the birds and the beasts, Ɔprapra the bat tried to play both sides.

I am surely a bird!” But when the beasts were victorious, he would crawl among them saying, “Look, I have fur and teeth like you! I am clearly a beast!”
