Stories and patakíes

Ebbo was the one who saved them

A man was in a very bad situation and they advised him to go have osode done with Orunmila.

He went and Ebbo came out for him to do, but as he was a party man he did not obey Orunmila and sent his son with the Ebbo.

That day was the eve of a great circus festivity and this brought many animals and as advertisement the beasts were exhibited all over the city.

It happened that when the man's omo who did the Ebbo passed by a street the elephant and the tiger smelled the Ebbo the boy was carrying and followed him.

The boy, who was already tired of walking through the town, thought it was the same thing to put it in one place as in another and some curious people saw that when the boy put the package on a roof the beasts came closer.

The next day the beasts were at their apogee and the king's son, accompanied, was walking from one place to another looking at the beasts and other attractions, then he stopped in front of a cage to look at the tigers, the Ebbo was on the roof and suddenly the horned owunko's head got stuck on his head.

The Oba was frightened out of respect for these things and ordered an investigation, and they told him who had placed it there and that it had fallen on him because a gunugun went to eat it and knocked it down.

The Oba ordered the boy's father brought before him and said: I have your omode under arrest, si omode ni Iku omi otuku a su omode.

The father of the boy who was under arrest went immediately to see Orunmila and with great sorrow, sadness, and fear explained his case, alleging that the Ebbo had caused that misfortune.

Orunmila told him to make the same Ebbo again, but now the boy's father had to take it to the foot of a tree.

The man did so and the king's son recovered in a surprising way.

When the man went to see his son, the king asked him how he had managed to make the sick man get so much better, and he answered: it was with the Ebbo.

As the Oba had another sick son he asked him to cure him too, that he would reward him with a great fortune.

He went again to see Orunmila and asked for advice, Orunmila told him: with Ebbo for the sick man and he also solved the case and the king's other omode got well and was happy.

The disobedient fisherman

There was a fisherman who spent his life fishing and the more he fished, the more fish he wanted to take out, and so night caught him and every day he brought them to the town, but it turns out he could no longer sell them and so they went bad on him and he had to give away the ones that were good and throw away the ones that went bad.

There was a fisherman who had caught beautiful varieties and showed them to the other fisherman telling him that that was nothing compared to what was at the bottom of the sea.

The fisherman, in the face of the bad situation he was in, went to see Orunmila, who saw this Ifa for him and told him: you have to do Ebbo and you cannot bath in the sea.

The man did not pay attention and then he looked for a fishing mask and went to the sea.

He went into the depths and there Olokun appeared to him, who, when he saw him with that mask, said: you have seen the secret and so that you cannot reveal it, you will have to die.

Then Olokun took the mask off him and the man began to swallow water and died.
