Once upon a time, in a land far to the north, there lived a little bear named None. None was different from other bears, as he had an incredibly long nose. This long nose would often get him into trouble, as he would accidentally bump into things and make a lot of noise.
One day, None was walking through the forest when he noticed that there was an eerie quietness all around. Not even the birds were chirping. He realized that something was not right, and started to look for the source of the silence.
As None was searching, he heard a faint noise coming from behind a bush. When he got closer, he saw that it was a small bird with a broken wing. None wanted to help, but didn't know what to do.
Just then, he remembered that his mother had told him that "sometimes, the best way to help is to do nothing". So, None just sat quietly with the bird and kept it company until it felt better.
After a while, the bird's wing was healed and it flew away, chirping happily. None felt proud of himself for noticing and helping in his own special way. From that day on, None learned that sometimes, not doing anything can actually be the right thing to do.
And so, the number of friends None made in the forest increased, as he was known to be a kind and thoughtful bear with a long nose.
