Indian folk story: King's eldest son

a few centuries ago, there was a dynasty in central java, called mendan waj, which was brutal.

his queen's name is balabe mendan waie.

one day, king mendwai went to hunt in the forest under his rule and met a hermit who predicted that queen balabou mendwai would give birth to three sons and that the king would be killed by his eldest son.

the king listened to this prophecy and was very angry and shiversed in order for his servants to kill the hermit.

but no one dared to carry out that order and the king himself did not dare to kill him.

so he said to the hermit, “because no one dares kill you, now i order you to leave here, wherever you go.

i swear, if my eldest son were born, i'd kill him." and the king, day and night, remembereth the prophethood of the hermit.

soon his prince was born.

one night, he ordered a nanny to bring him a prince when she fell asleep.

after the nanny held the prince to him, he ordered a trusted servant to carry the king to the sea and kill him and to throw the body into the sea.

the servant had to take the baby to the sea because he feared the king.

when he arrived at the sea, he cried out to the sea god, cabron, "i can't bear to see that my king, the holy almighty, ordered me to kill his new prince.

so, please tell me, what do i do with this baby?" only in the sea of the waves, the caberone replied, "hey, servant, you're not as cruel as your king.

that's good.

put that baby in the first stone hole you ever met! then you will return to your king and say, "your majesty, the little one has carried out his majesty's orders! the prince is now under the authority of the god of the sea, cabron.

'your king must have been happy to hear that and not ask you how you killed the boy.

don't worry, i'll protect the baby." when the servant put the baby in a stone hole, he went back to the king.

king mendan waye asked him, and he replied, “your majesty, the little one has carried out his majesty's orders! the prince is now under the authority of the sea god cabron." "fine! go! " the king said.

by the way, that night, the queen woke up from a dream and found the prince missing.

her fear of grief has caused her acute illness.

he died that night.

the next day, the whole palace was sad.

a few months later, king mendan waye forgot the queen's death and married the princess of king becharan.

this second queen then gave birth to two sons, one called laden alone and the other known as alyabara.

the king loved the two princes, and the other one was happy that his eldest son was dead and never thought of him again.

when the servant left the prince in the stone cave, the sea god cabron made a fisherman who had no children to pray to the fairy-brahama to go to the cave.

shortly thereafter, the fisherman went to the stone hole; he heard the crying of the baby, and he stayed and listened carefully to the direction of the crying.

when i heard it, i walked into the cave.

only one baby lies on a dry algae pile in a dark corner.

he was shocked and pleased, and he picked up the babyand he said, "maybe it's from the fairy-brahma! "mallahama of god!" he took the baby home.

his wife was sitting at the door of the hut, and it was strange to see her husband walking in a bag of things, and thought that he was carrying something heavy, and said, "what are you holding? gaman?" her husband gaman called, "the fairy brahma to our boy!" his wife, rashura, was inexplicable, and then she saw the baby, and she said, "aah! a boy! "brahma of god! he has fulfilled our demands!" thus, the eldest son of king mendon waye was raised by the fisherman gaeman and his loving wife, rasura.

after many years, king mendun waie was very old, but still as violent as ever.

his two princes, laden alone, and albaba, were as brutal as he was.

the first son of the king, raised by the fisherman, is smart, kind and handsome.

"he must be a special person," gaeman whispered to his wife.

"look, his skin is yellow, and he's handsome." perhaps he was taken by his father's enemies to hide in that cave, and we will always know who he is.” "just hope he doesn't get taken back!" rasura says.

"that's why i want to know if he really is a special person." that fisherman said.

because he wanted to know, so he went to the forest and asked a hermit.

but the hermit did not tell him who the child was born, but said, "take him to the kingdom of burchacharan and teach him iron-fighting." now i'm not saying anything else to you." gaman took his adopted son to bachalán, where he was given an apprentice by a skilled iron master.

after a few months, the child learned well and the fisherman was convinced that he must be a special person.

a few years later, because of his high iron-fighting skills, the prince was known throughout the kingdom of bachalán, and many people liked his products.

king mendun waj also heard his reputation and wanted to see him and his finished work, and one day he went to his house.

the king saw the blacksmith at the workshop.

when he saw the blacksmith's face, which was red by the light of fire from the bear, he was surprised that even his lips were shaking.

for he saw the young man as though he were the queen who died.

the king stayed a moment before he said to the young man, "what's your name, wise blacksmith?" your parents may be noble." the young man answered respectfully and respectfully: “i do not know, your majesty.

i was found in the stone cave by gamanburg when i was a kid.

he took me home and raised me with his wife, rachel's mother.

i see them as my parents." the king was very confused to hear and left without saying a word, and quickly entered the sedan, ordering the servants to go back and to return to the palace before sunrise.

in the middle of the night he returned to the palace.

they immediately ordered their men to bring in the servants who had been ordered to kill the prince several years earlier and to throw him into the sea.

this servant is old nowWhen he arrived, the king cried out, and said, "Have you done my orders before? Did you kill my eldest son and throw his body into the sea?" The old servant replied timidly: “The first son of His Majesty, whom I had carried to the sea, but I couldn't bear to kill him, cried out to the sea god Cabron, and he called a fisherman to save ” The king heard his breath growling and ordered the old servant to be killed immediately and said, “If you, like him, do not carry out my command, I will kill you all.” This old servant has been a slave for his life, and this is the grace of the king.

The old servants then withdrew with a few young servants who had executed them.

After the death of the old servant, King Mendun Waye ordered Gaman, the fisherman.

The King asked several ministers and servants to carry the palanquin to pick up the fisherman immediately.

He was restless, waiting for Gaeman.

When Gaeman arrived, the king said to him, "Tell me, fisherman, where did you find your man who taught you like a prince? Do you know who he was born?" "Your Majesty," the fisherman replied, "I found him in a stone hole.

And he was very young, starving in a stone hole.

I do not know what he is but that he is a lively and sweet child, of good taste, and that his skin is yellow and clean, which shows that he is from a good family.

Therefore, Your Majesty, I have educated him as a prince.” "You're a fisherman.

What do you know about the kid? You told him to learn iron-fighting like the princes, because his skin is softer than yours? Can no man's skin be whiteter than his? Everything you say doesn't determine he's from the emperor's house! “Yes, Your Majesty.

But his voice, his spirit and his manners clearly indicate that he is a special person.” The fisherman replied.

And the king of Mendun Wai said, "The blacksmith I saw last night was nothing like the son of the king! Now go home!"
