11. The Pet Falcon #Inspirational Moral Stories
Princess Qadira had a pet falcon. Once, she decided to
visit her friend's house, which was far beyond a great desert. As she was
leaving the palace, her pet falcon swooped into her palanquin and sat beside
her. "My trip will be so boring without you. Come along," she said.
Princess Qadira set off with her guards and camels laden with gifts for her
friend. It was afternoon and the princess was thirsty. After a while, the
guards saw a pond at a distance. Princess Qadira got off the palanquin and was
about to drink the water, when her falcon pecked at her hand. She tried to drink
the water again and her falcon pecked at her shoulder. Puzzled, she bent down a
third time to drink the water. Just then, she saw a poisonous snake swimming in
the water. She kissed her falcon and said, "Thanks for protecting
me!"
Moral of the Story: The moral of the story is that sometimes, the instincts and
actions of our loyal and trusted companions can protect us from harm, and it's
important to value and appreciate their presence.
