Wise Man of Pacific Tribe

Apo Isko, the one who discovered the use of "The Talking Book" became well-known in their tribe.

Many people line-up on his house daily to ask questions and guidance.

As they were a primitive tribe, they don't know a lot of things and they don't ask for complex things.

Most of them asks trivial things such as:

How can I eat? How can I build a shelter? How can I become stronger?

If Apo Isko asked "The Talking Book" he'll get answers literally.

When he asked "How can I eat?", it responded " First is you choose an edible food, then hold it with your hands or using utensils. You need to open your mouth to put the food inside your mouth. The tongue tastes the food and the teeth will be used for chewing the food. This is necessarily needed in order to swallow the food without hurting your esophagus, this will also help to digest the food quickly and breakdown the nutrients needed by the body..."

Apo Isko scratched his head and rephrased the question, "How can we find food?"

The Talking Book answered, "If you're in the wilderness, you can look for edible fruits and crops and this is the easiest option. But, it will easily run out as it takes time for trees and plants to produce fruits and crops. The most abundant food-source were the other life-forms, there are animals and insects that you can eat but you need to follow different procedures. Please watch this as an example."

Apo Isko was shocked when the Talking Book, showed images and played a video of a man dressed in a primitive way hunting and farming. Setting up traps and using weapons or tools that is very efficient on providing food.

After the video ended. "He ecstatically asked The Talking Book to show it again" and it replayed.

For almost 20-30 times, he watched it carefully and try getting all the details.

He managed to grasp techniques on catching wild animals and setting up traps for fish in rivers.

The next day, he gathered all the other elders and explained that he just had an enlightenment.

The first and the problem that almost every tribesmen is facing is the difficulty on finding food.

And he boldly said in front of every tribesmen, I've got a solution! It will help us to find food!

He made a list of edible fruits, crops, and plants and showed it to everyone.

He then explained, that it is not necessary to pluck and harvest all the fruits as it will go bad within a week. They don't have any preservation method at the moment. He gave instructions on how many fruit and crops should be harvested every day.

But the tribesmen is not fully convinced yet.

Then he draw an animal. The very same animal that owns the animal hide where he drew it.

A big deer like animal with sharp and pointed horns. Herbivore animal but very dangerous as it attacks anyone who enters its territory. A charge from this animal and you'll be impaled to death by its horn if you're not careful.

A muscular tribesman asked, "Apo Isko, that beast might give us food but it's very hard to hunt!"

Apo Isko laughed and said, "Says who? Not anymore! Here's the method on how to deal with that beast! Don't even call that a beast, its our prey from now on!" then he showed a trap design that is easy to build.

"Gather 10 of your men who's capable. We'll set out tomorrow to hunt!

We'll get a supply of food for everyone in one hunt!"

The Tribesmen were all happy as if they won a lottery.

All of them stared at Apo Isko with expectant eyes. They shouted in unison, "Long Live Apo Isko!"

'Tomorrow will be a history for the Pacific Tribesmen!'
