The Emperors New Suit There once was an emperor who believed that the clothes that he wore were the greatest source of popularity. He held his fashion in the highest regard. This leader didn't care about what he ate, or how he ruled, or anything that didn't pertain to his clothing. This emperor had a different outfit for each hour of the day. Everyone in his kingdom knew that this emperor always wore the most expensive threads. One day two swindlers came into town. They heard all of the townsfolk talk about the emperor and his beautiful clothes so they developed an idea to swindle the emperor out of his fortune. These two swindlers took two looms and started to tell the townsfolk that they were the weavers of the greatest garbs in all of the land. They have sewn for kings and queens all across the land and now they have come to this kingdom to sew for the emperor. The emperor caught wind of this and demanded that they come to sew him the finest clothes at once. These s...

The Singing Bone Epilogue After the evil son had been found out they decided to give him a proper punishment. For the crime of killing his own brother and claiming a reward that wasn't his the evil brother was tied to a large stone and thrown into the ocean to drown. The good brother was then taken out from under the bridge and given a proper burial in the king's graveyard. The bone that was chiseled into a mouthpiece, however, stayed in the horn owned by the man who found it. After all of the wrongs were corrected the horn played usually and the bone sang no more. Life finally seemed to be balanced in the kingdom, until it wasn't. When the king threw the evil brother in the lake he neglected to think about the power of his bones. If his brother's bone had the ability to sing, the other brother's bones must have the power to accomplish something. The king realized this after he had thrown him in the lake, and at that point, it was too late. The king shrugge...

Deaths Messengers One day a giant was walking along a highway when a man jumped out at him and told him to stop. The man said, "I am death, you have to listen to me." The giant denied him and told death to move out of the way. They disagreed and began to wrestle. It was a long and tough battle but the giant gained the upper hand. He defeated death and left him on the side of the road. Death laid on the road concerned with what the world would look like without him. He was concerned for the people who wouldn't die in his absence. The world would be full of people and nobody would be able to move. Then a young man walked up out of nowhere and started to assist death without knowing who he was. He let death drink from his canteen and he nursed him back to health. Death finally was able to speak to him when he said," I am death and I am extremely grateful for your help. Because of this, I promise to not kill you without warning. When your time comes I will send ...

The Singing Bone There once was a wild boar that terrorized an entire country. This beast was so massive and awful that it would kill entire flocks of animals, and dig up farmland with its tusks. Everyone in the kingdom was so terrified of the beast to the point that nobody would do anything about it. Then the king of the land made an announcement saying "Whoever shall kill the beast will have my daughter's hand in marriage."  There was a pair of brothers in the land, and when they heard this message they decided to take the challenge and kill the boar. The brothers were different from one another in many different ways. One brother was driven by pride and glory, the other brother was driven by his good heart.  They went to the king for the challenge and he instructed them to start at opposite sides of the forest where the beast lives so he could not evade them. The brothers went off to the forest to kill the boar. The good-hearted brother went to the far s...
