The King Rooster story is a powerful allegory set in an ancient Middle Eastern city, where a proud and territorial rooster fiercely guards his flock, believing himself to be the rightful king of his courtyard. When rival roosters and unexpected challenges threaten his rule, his instinctive aggression leads to unforeseen consequences. Through the rooster’s journey from a prideful protector to a fallen warrior, the tale explores themes of pride, intolerance, and the costs of defending one’s territory without understanding. It ultimately reflects on human nature, urging readers to question whether we can ever truly learn to coexist peacefully.
