The Vulture was once the king of all the birds, but he was
very oppressive. The birds could not built their nest without permission from
him and in order to get this permission they had to work for the Vulture and his
family. This went on for a long time and everyone got used to the situation.
After a passage of time the family of the Eagles revolted but they did not make
any change as the Vulture had them sent them into exile and they were permitted
to fly not lower than an Iroko tree. The family of the Hens revolted and was
banned from flying. Soon everyone gave up his or her attempt to resist and
revolt against the oppressive rule of the Vulture.
Unknown to the rest of the birds, the family of the
Peacock started getting close to the Vulture and the Vulture was glad to
associate with such a family of beautiful birds. One day contrary to what the
Dove, the god of the birds destined, the Vulture married the Peacock. The
Peacock was so very good at cooking that the family of the Vulture came to love
her very much. One day during a get together party she prepared a delicious meal
for him and his greedy family. They ate the meal and all died because it was
poisoned. Thus the beautiful lady Peacock liberated the whole kingdom of the
birds.
