Once upon a time, in a thick and lush forest, there lived two herds of deer. Each herd had five hundred deer, and both were led by a magnificent king. One of them was known as the King Banyan Deer because of his beautiful golden fur, which was as lustrous as the bark of a banyan tree. The other was known as the King Branch Deer because his antlers branched out like a beautiful tree.
The two kings were not only wise and fair, but they were also great friends.
Nearby, there was a royal city where the human king loved to hunt. He and his hunters would often come to the forest, chasing and terrifying the animals. The Banyan Deer and Branch Deer, seeing their herds scared and in disarray, decided to talk to the human king.
They went to the king's palace and explained their problem, "Oh, great king! We understand your love for hunting, but our herds are living in constant fear. It causes chaos and harm. Could we find a way to make it easier for everyone?"
Moved by their wise words, the human king agreed to a plan. "Each day," he said, "send one deer from your herds to my palace. This way, you won't be scared, and I can continue my hunting."
Both the deer kings agreed, and so it was arranged. Each day, one deer would go to the palace to be hunted, alternating between the two herds.
One day, it was a turn from the Banyan Deer's herd. A mother deer, who had a newborn fawn, was chosen. Tearfully, she approached the Banyan Deer. "Please," she pleaded, "let me live until my baby is old enough to survive without me. After that, I will go."
The Banyan Deer, full of compassion, decided to go to the palace in place of the mother deer. He walked to the palace and laid down, ready to be hunted.
When the human king saw the majestic Banyan Deer offering himself, he was astonished. He realized the value of self-sacrifice and compassion. He said, "Oh, noble Banyan Deer, your act of bravery and love has touched my heart. I won't hunt you. Go back to your forest."
The Banyan Deer, however, asked the king to promise not to hunt any deer from now on. Seeing the wisdom in this, the king agreed and even extended his promise to all the animals in the forest.
And so, the forest became a safe haven for all animals, thanks to the wise and compassionate Banyan Deer. And they all lived in peace and harmony, learning the value of sacrifice, compassion, and kindness.
Once upon a time, in a big, green forest that probably smelled like fresh cookies after rain, there were two herds of deer. These weren't the kind of deer that just nibbled grass and ran away. No siree! These were the cool kids of the forest.
Leading one herd was King Banyan Deer. He had fur so shiny it looked like someone gave him a glitter bath. "Hey, I'm not just any deer," he'd wink, "I've got the style and the brain!"
Then there was King Branch Deer, whose antlers looked like the prettiest tree you ever did see. "Life is like a big maze," he’d often say. "But hey, have you checked out my cool antlers?"
Now, these two, King Banyan and King Branch, were like Batman and Robin of the deer world. Best buddies. Besties. BFFs. You get the idea.
But close by, there was a city with a king who loved to play tag with animals. And not the fun kind of tag. The kind where he chased them. A lot.
So, our deer heroes decided to have a little chat with Mr. Chasey King. Strutting into the palace like they owned the place, King Banyan said, "Hey, Mr. King! Chasing is fun, but maybe we could play a different game?"
King Branch added, "Yeah, I mean, it's tough looking cool when you're always on the run, right?"
Mr. Chasey King thought for a moment. "Okay, how about one deer comes to my palace each day, and we'll play a gentler game?"
Deal made! Deer from each group took turns visiting. But one day, a momma deer with a baby was up. "King Banyan," she said with big, teary eyes, "Can I have a little more time? Just till my baby learns how to hop and skip?"
King Banyan, being the big-hearted deer he was, said, "You know what? I’ll go play with Mr. Chasey King today." And off he went, ready to play a game.
When Mr. Chasey King saw King Banyan ready to play, his eyes went big. "King Banyan? Why are you here? You're like... the superhero of the forest!"
King Banyan gave a big, toothy grin. "Sometimes, you gotta show a little love, Mr. King."
Seeing this brave deer, Mr. Chasey King decided, "No more chasing games, ever! Let's play hide and seek or duck-duck-goose!"
King Banyan did a happy dance. "Now that's a game I can get behind!"
From that day on, the forest was the happiest place, where everyone played fun games and no one had to run away. Every creature was laughing, playing, and if you put your ear to the ground, you might even hear the worms giggling.
Two deer kings in a forest so grand,
One with gold fur, the other antlers that spanned.
Friends they were, wise and true,
Leading their herds, through and through.
Close by a city, where a king loved to chase,
Scaring the deer, in that forested space.
Banyan Deer and Branch Deer thought, "This isn't fair!"
"To the human king's palace, we must go there."
"Your Majesty," they said, "we see you love the chase,
But our herds are afraid all over the place.
Can we find a way, so all can be well?"
The human king agreed, a new plan to tell.
"Send one deer a day, to my palace here,
No need to run, no more need to fear."
Both deer kings nodded, it seemed a fair trade,
So every day, a visit one deer made.
But then came a day, oh, what could be done?
A mommy deer worried for her newborn son.
"Please," she begged, "let me stay by his side,"
Till he’s big and strong, and doesn’t need to hide."
So Banyan Deer, with a heart pure and true,
Went to the palace, the king's eyes grew.
"Your bravery," said the king, "has opened my eyes,
No more hunting deer, it's not very wise."
"Promise me more," said Banyan, taking his stand,
"Let’s make this forest a safe, peaceful land."
The king agreed, extending his vow,
To protect all creatures, starting right now.
So thanks to Banyan, wise and dear,
All animals lived without any fear.
In that happy forest, they now reside,
Learning kindness and love, far and wide.
