7. THE TWELVE HUNTERS
#Inspirational Moral Stories
The king ruling over
the Kingdom of the East was dying and asked his son to
promise to marry the
Northern queen. The prince was in love with the
Southern princess,
but promised to do what his dying father desired. When he
did not meet her for
some time, the Southern princess grew desperate. She
selected many
handmaidens, and disguising themselves as hunters, they went
to the East. They
were taken into the prince’s service, who did not recognise
his beloved. When
his wedding was announced, the Southern princess
fainted. The prince
went to her aid, and found his ring on her finger! He now
realised he loved
her more than anything else in the world. The Northern
queen, seeing how
happy the two lovers were, returned alone to her home.
