THE KING THAT SPOKE IN RIDDLES.
Once upon a time, there lived a wealthy and powerful king that ruled over the city of Khulisa. He always love to speak in riddles and parables. He often asks witty questions and only men with great wisdom could provide answer for his question.
One day he asked a bizarre question that made his court attendants lost in words. The king noticed his court attendants as they murmured to one another.
Just in time, one of the king's wise men walked in and as if he knew what had been going on, he asked "may I know what question the king has asked this time that makes you all to murmur? "
The king replied him and asked, "how many birds do we have in the air flying in this great city"
The King's wise man without a single sweat said "there are 750,000 birds flying in the sky of this great city"
The king was surprised at his answer and asked him, are you sure of what you are saying?
The wise man replied and said "yes my king, you can send men out to make an aerial count and if you have more than 750,000 birds, it simply means there are some birds who came visiting and if we have less than 750,000 birds it simply means that there are some birds who went out to visit their relatives.
The king was astonished by the words of his wise man and he chuckled as he sat on his throne.
