Pataki from Ogbe Otura: The Dog and Orunmila's Secret

Shango whoever was waiting for Orunmila at the foot of the ceiba tree had already noticed that the dog was acting suspiciously and tried to warn Orula.

But he did not think it possible that his trusted animal was capable of betraying him.

The dog was a cunning animal, it had served the soothsayer well, a fact that once allowed him to gain the trust of the Orisha.

Shango was sure of the bad intentions of the dog, but when he warned Orunmila, he had denied it, which is why the Orisha of fire felt disgusted and ended up leaving the town.

Orula continued to trust in the great power of loyalty

The next morning Orula went to his meeting point with Shango and when he noticed that he had left he thought that he was not alone because the dog would take his place, but when he looked for the dog he did not find him either.

When Orunmila returned home he found the dog talking to Obatala, he gave complaints to the white Orisha of the distrust that Shango had in him and the sage then answered what reasons he would have to do so.
