South African Folktales

So this story is about how ants came together to find a place to retreat when they are being attacked. The story says the ants have many enemies since they are small and destructive.
When they held a meeting, there were many different types of ants to talk about the problems they face.
Basically the story is about how all these different ants couldn't come to one agreement so they separated and did their own thing.
The king of the insects heard that their ideas weren't working so he sent a beetle to tell them the secret of unity. The beetle never arrived so they still have no clue what they are doing.
So the story starts out with a great drought throughout the land. The lion summons different animals to see if they could find a way to collect precious water. So basically these animals that worked so hard to create this dam didn't take care of it.
I think I will try to combine these two stories.
