In the story of the tortoise and the hare, the rising action is when the hare challenges the tortoise to a race and confidently takes the lead, underestimating the tortoise. The tortoise remains steady and determined, not giving up despite the hare's speed and taunts.
Kinsmen are many of the characters in Things Fall Apart. Without kinsmen you probably wouldn't have a story.
Tis a funny parable. I wonder what tortoise looked like before he was rough and broken. It is funny to think of Mrs. Tortoise, and you wonder why she wasn't invited to the banquet. You also wonder who the people of the sky were, and how they got kola nuts in the sky. Perhaps the birds brought them as gifts. It's funny to think of a tortoise as a widely-travelled man when tortoises' are notorious for being slow! Perhaps it was an old tortoise. I wonder if Tortoise's wife was also a tortoise or if he took a different wife. She probably was not a bird at least. Could she have been treated like a man as well? With mosquitos, I usually get bitten in the leg myself, though I don't think I have met many African mosquitos. I wonder if African mosquitos are different than North American mosquitos. I like fables.
