Then he said to the guards and attendants, I find no sickness. He seems to be grief-stricken due to the loss of a friend. Do you know if this elephant had a very close friendship with anyone?
They told him how the royal elephant and the stray dog were best friends. What happened to this stray dog? asked the minister. He was taken by an unknown man, they replied, and we do not know where he is now.
The minister returned to the king and said, Your majesty, I am happy to say your elephant is not sick. As strange as it may sound, he became best friends with a stray dog! Since the dog has been taken away, the elephant is grief-stricken and does not feel like eating or drinking or bathing. This is my opinion.
The king said, Friendship is one of lifes most wonderful things. My minister, how can we bring back my elephants friend and make him happy again?
My lord, replied the minister, I suggest you make an official announcement, that whoever has the dog who used to live at the royal elephant shed, will be fined.
This was done, and when the villager heard of it, he released the dog.from his house. He was filled with great happiness and ran as fast as he could, straight back to his best friend, the royal bull elephant.
The elephant was so overjoyed, that he picked up his friend with his trunk and sat him on top of his head. The happy dog wagged his tail, while the elephants eyes sparkled with delight. They both lived happily ever after.
