Once upon a time, the king of Fantasy Kingdom died. A sly wizard came to power and banished the king's only son, a baby prince, so he could become king. However, the wizard was afraid that the prince would come back to control the kingdom, so he summoned his pet, a powerful dragon, to guard the castle.
When the prince grew up, he was determined to return to his kingdom and become the king, as the wizard was cruel to the people. On this way to the kingdom, he met a talking donkey. The donkey told him, "If you want to become the king, you must kill the wicked dragon. Let me help you!" In a flash, a magical sword appeared in the prince's hand. the prince thanked the donkey, who said, "You have no need to thank me. Your father the king was always kind to me." The prince was delighted and set off to kill the dragon. The prince fought the dragon bravely. He won the fight with the magical sword. Then the prince challenged the wizard to the throne. They had a duel for the leadership of the kingdom. The wizard was nearly killed and begged for mercy. The prince was sympathetic and forgave the wizard in the end. The wizard was thankful and he and the donkey became the prince's loyal counselors. Finally, they all lived happily ever after, with the prince ruling his kingdom justly.
The moral of this story is that we should forgive even though we may not forget. If everybody is kind, wouldn't the world be a better place?
