About Rufi

Rufi was born in the Black Forest in Germany. One day he wanted to explore the forest by himself. After begging his mother, she finally allowed him to go alone.

The Rules of the Forest

She had already taught him the Rules of the Forest, but before he could go, he had to recite them. When he was able to do so, his mother let him go.

Lessons Learned

Unfortunately, Rufi broke almost all the rules and he got into some real problems. Rufi learned the hard way that when elders teach rules, it is important that they be followed always.
