Once upon a time, in a kingdom nestled amidst lush forests and majestic mountains, there lived a wise and benevolent King who cherished his most prized possession - a magnificent parrot endowed with unparalleled intelligence and a melodious voice that enchanted all who heard it.
The King's bond with his beloved parrot was unbreakable, until one fateful day when the parrot expressed a longing to visit his parents who dwelled deep within the forest. With a heavy heart, the King granted his feathered friend permission, but not without a condition - to return within five days.
Filled with joy, the parrot embarked on his journey and reunited with his parents, relishing every moment of their company. As the fifth day approached, the parrot bid farewell to his family, his heart brimming with love and gratitude.
On his way back to the palace, a noble idea struck the parrot - to present his benevolent King with a gift that would grant him eternal youth. Guided by this noble intention, the parrot sought out a legendary nectar fruit rumored to possess miraculous properties.
Under the moonlit sky, the parrot found the sacred fruit atop a towering mountain. However, fate took a cruel turn when a venomous snake tainted the fruit with its deadly bite while the parrot slept peacefully nearby.
Unaware of the danger lurking within the fruit, the parrot journeyed back to the palace, his wings heavy with the weight of his noble mission. Upon presenting the fruit to the King, a wise minister, ever vigilant, cautioned the King to test its edibility.
Reluctantly, the King fed a piece of the fruit to his loyal dog, only to witness it suffer a tragic demise. Enraged and deceived, the King, consumed by anger, hastily sentenced the parrot to a swift and unjust execution.
With a heavy heart, the King cast aside the poisoned fruit, believing it to be a sinister ploy orchestrated by his faithful companion. Little did he know, the fruit held no malice, only misunderstood innocence.
Years passed, and a tree sprouted from the discarded seed of the fruit, bearing wholesome and rejuvenating fruits. Despite the King's decree, fate intervened when an unsuspecting old man stumbled upon the tree, unaware of its origins.
In a twist of fate, the old man tasted the fruit and was miraculously restored to youth. When the truth came to light, the King was overcome with remorse and shame for his hasty actions, realizing the depth of his folly and the purity of the parrot's intentions.
And so, amidst the shade of the tree, the King sought redemption, vowing to cherish the memory of his beloved parrot and the lesson learned from the misunderstood gift.
