ORIENTATION

A long, long time ago, a child was born.


This child was the son of a great king, but
he was born in the body of a dragon.
Rejected by his royal family, he lived in a
cave. For many long days and nights, he
asked the gods to turn him back into his
true human form and dreamed of life as a
boy
COMPLICATION

One day, a nearby village held a festival in honor of their god. A group of hunters went into the
forest to find food for the feast. One of the hunters stuck his spear into the ground for safekeeping.
But the moment he put it down, blood started flowing from that spot. The men acted fast and killed
the dragon.
As the festival begins, a small boy, dressed in rags, dirty clothes, walks to the center of the village
asking for a morsel of food or a drop of drink. The villagers immediately chased the boy away.
An old grandmother saw the boy in rags and told him to go into her house and eat the food he had
prepared. The child thanked and told his grandmother to prepare a mortar and a ladle.
The little boy came back with a stick and stuck it in the ground. Then ordered all the villagers to
pull out the stick. More and more villagers tried, but even the strongest among them couldn't move
the stick in the slightest.
RESOLUTION

Finally the villagers, shouted at the boy to try it himself. The boy walked up
to the stick and easily pulled it off the ground. The people were amazed,
water started gushing from the hole where the stick was stuck. It gushed
and gushed and gushed until the center of the village was one big pool of
water.
As the water continued to flow from the hole, the boy ran back to the kind
old granny's house. The boy told his grandmother to climb into the mortar
with him and paddle away from the village. The center of the village, the
houses, the delicious food and drink, and all the other villagers quickly
disappeared under the rising waters. The boy said "The hunters didn't even
offer me a taste of the meat they took from me! So now, in judgment, the
village will be flooded and become a lake forever".
MORAL
MESSAGE

1. Don't be arrogant don't underestimate


small, weak or bad people. Because it could
be, that person has an advantage in him.

2. We should not have a vengeful nature towards


people who have been mean to us, even though
they have been evil but it would be better if we
could accept it gracefully without having to take
revenge
