Narlie the Buoyant Narwhal: A Tale of Laughter and Responsibility

Once upon a time, in the Arctic ocean, there lived a Narwhal named Narlie. Narlie was a unique Narwhal, with a long spiral tusk that he used to play with his friends in his pod. One day while they were playing, they noticed a buoyant object floating towards them.
As they got closer, they realized it was a blowhole disguised as a buoy! It was actually a prank set up by the whales to see if the Narwhals would fall for it. Narlie, being the curious one, swam over to investigate. As soon as he blew into the blowhole, he was lifted high into the air!
The other Narwhals couldn't help but laugh at Narlie’s silly expression as he tried to figure out what was happening. Suddenly, Narlie remembered his baleen and used it to filter the air and bring himself back down to the water.
But little did Narlie know, his blubber kept him so buoyant that he just kept floating back up! The whales couldn't contain their laughter any longer and started singing "Narlie the buoyant Narwhal!"
Narlie, feeling embarrassed, swam away to find a solution. He learned about the importance of not becoming extinct and reducing decibels in the ocean to protect marine life. From then on, Narlie only used his tusk for gentle taps and his voice for soft whispers.
And that's how Narlie became the most considerate Narwhal in the Arctic ocean.
