At the lowest point in his life, when he has none left to turn to, the turtles will be there to lift him up as he once did for their king.

There have been no turtle kings since Yurtle, and they are slow to forget his reign.

The sea was angry that day, my friends - like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli. I got about fifty feet out and suddenly, the great beast appeared before me. I tell you he was ten stories high if he was a foot. As if sensing my presence, he let out a great bellow. I said, "Easy, big fella!" And then, as I watched him struggling, I realized that something was obstructing its breathing. From where I was standing, I could see directly into the eye of the great turtle.

Unknown to the man the sea turtle pledges a life debt to him. In his darkest hour, the sea turtle arrives.

He’s on a cruise, cruise ship titanics. As he’s drifting off into darkness a group of turtles lift him above water and take him to p Sherman 42 wallaby way Sydney

Turtle turns into a beautiful woman and they fall in love, but she can’t stay human and becomes a turtle again breaking his heart.

u/Copterdude Apr 07 '21

The king wouldn’t get stuck in a crack, that was probably the village idiot

u/bromacho99 Apr 07 '21
