Once upon a time in the heart of Africa there was a small village.
The villagers lived in harmony with the land, tending their crops and livestock with care and love.
But one day, something began to change in the valley.
The grasses started to wilt and the trees began to droop, the villagers were concerned and they called upon their wise elder Nomvula to help them understand what was happening.
The elder sat with the villagers under the shade of a spreading Baobab tree and listened to their worries.
Then, she went up a hill and started to pray to the village ancestors and Gods for rain and for their land to heal.
After two days the rain poured and the villagers were happy again.
