    Study Notes

    The Origin of the Scattered Stars

    • Ojishonda, the ruler of Starland, was responsible for placing stars in the sky, doing so every night.
    • One evening, Ojishonda fell asleep before starting his task, leaving his sack of stars unattended.

    The Mischievous Red Fox

    • Ojishonda's pet red fox, a cunning creature, took advantage of the situation and stole the sack of stars.
    • The fox's actions caused the stars to spill out and scatter all over the sky.

    The Consequences

    • When Ojishonda woke up, he realized the stars were scattered too far to be gathered again, and they remained that way.
    • As a result, Ojishonda now takes all night to walk around Starland, lighting the stars one by one.

    Variations in Star Visibility

    • Due to Ojishonda's limitations, particularly on snowy nights or when he's tired, not all stars are lit.
    • This explains why not all stars are always visible in the sky, especially during winter.
