Yes, your grandfather knew, as wise elders know (though they no longe exist) - what to teach you and what to leave you as his legacy (the green stone), but also what you had to become to use his teachings - and it took time, till the rooster called three times - actually it may take your whole life.
Clarification: You're not a ruler by being born one or being appointed one - but by developing to one - and you'll know it when you're there - and want to rule (as your calling) - and those that accept it are your kingdom - but it's not something you benefit from in any normally understood way - it's a service you provide - and that is reward in itself - that you can follow your calling - for your species and all life.
Maybe you then need (since you heard the call) to find allies and worthy causes (as your kingdom) - and in any new role you need to learn by doing, and be sure you'll fall on your nose, but that's how one learns.
That was short. A ritual of some kind? Grandfather seems to be some kind of shaman or witch or something. intrigued again... And the green stone. Is it the same one Grandfather used to treat the peck on his finger?
You are reading very closely. Yes, it is brief on purpose, almost ritualistic. And the green stone carries more than one memory. Thank you for noticing.

And you can also hear the third call of the rooster when it's already too late.
It’s never too late - maybe there’s just another call that tells you - that you are of age - are ready to be a ruler.

To be honest, the rooster’s call still lives in me. I know the message is there, I carry it, but sometimes I forget.
