the tortoise heard there was a head of lettuce at the end of the rainbow. he told the sage this, and the sage said, “tortoise, that is a myth. the real treasure is inside yourself.”

but the next time the tortoise saw a rainbow, he decided he couldn’t risk it. he had to see for himself.

so he hiked through the dark woods and over the high hills, around the vast lake, and up into the mountains where the rainbow ended. he climbed the rugged terrain until he was exhausted, and finally, he came upon the end of the rainbow.

and there was a head of lettuce!
