Vicky was a weaver by profession and his actual name was Victor Prince.

However,
because of small and weak build, he was called Little Vicky. But, this did not stop him from
being valiant. One day as he was weaving, a mosquito settled on his left hand. Suddenly,
the weaving shuttle slipped from his hand and landed on the mosquito, killing it. 

Vicky considered this a big achievement and was determined to show his valor. He even
imagined being called Prince Victor. However, his neighbors mocked at him when he told
them about his determination. So, he set out to prove himself in another land. He soon came
face to face with an elephant that was killing the inhabitants of the land. He decided to
confront the elephant himself and refused any weapon that the king of the land offered him.
All that he took with him was his shuttle. 

He put down the food bundle that his wife had given him and approached the elephant.
Unknown to him, his wife had poisoned the food because she did not love him. The elephant
loved the smell of the bread and gobbled it. Suddenly, Vicky was overcome by fear and
started running. But, soon the elephant caught up with him. He suddenly decided to turn
around and run between the elephant’s legs. In fear, he bumped against the legs. Just at
that moment, the poison took effect and it fell dead. The onlookers were shocked to see the
elephant fall dead and even more surprised to see Valiant Vicky sitting on the elephant’s
head. They rushed to the King and told him all that happened. The king made him his
Commander-in-chief. 

Soon, he was sent to confront a tiger that was attacking the people. In fear, he climbed up a
tree. As the branch swayed, his dagger slipped from its sheath and went through the tiger’s
mouth into its stomach thus killing it on the spot. He beheaded the tiger and took its head to
the King. He also managed to save the kingdom being attacked by a neighboring prince by
fluke with the help of his new wife who was the King’s dinner. The King then gave him half of
his kingdom and Valiant Vicky lived a peaceful life till his end.
