Everybody liked King Motu the Magnificent except King Chhotu the Cheater.
One day King Chhotu was so upset just thinking about King Motu, that he flew into a jealous rage. All his servants saw this and went into hiding in case he took his anger out on them. That only made King Chhotu even more wild. He started kicking the walls of his palace.
Queen Lotu, the Duchess of Charming, was devoted to her husband King Chhotu. She heard all the noise King Chhotu was making. She came out to calm him down.
King Chhotu told her that the problem was King Motu. Queen Lotu listened patiently.
Using all the cunning that he had, King Chhotu painted a horrible horrible picture of King Motu as he talked. For instance, it was plain disgusting, yes really, how mean King Motu was to his people. He really did not deserve all the treasures he had taken from his people. King Chhotu said, with tears swelling in his eyes, that he would never find peace until King Motu's people were rescued from such a nasty king. And if that meant taking over King Motu's kingdom - and "er.. his treasures", well then so be it as he meekly said: "God help ME, I'd do it!" At this point, King Chhotu was so overcome with emotion, he sobbed silently in his sleeve.
Queen Lotu could not bear to see King Chhotu suffering like this, and to think, just because King Chhotu was such a softy, he was helplessly tormenting himself this way. Clearly King Motu "the Magnificent MEANY" had to go.
Queen Lotu wished she could help King Chhotu somehow. She thought very hard. Suddenly an idea came to her: "Of Course! Hey I can help you my noble King!"
"What? You mean to defeat King Motu?"
"Yes my King. To defeat King Motu utterly – but on one condition!!"
"WE would defeat and wipe King Motu off the face of this earth my Queen?"
"Yes absolutely without a trace being left of King Motu – but unfortunately, my dearest, there is one condition!!”
Although King Chhotu was overjoyed with the idea of defeating King Motu, he had a bad feeling in his heart about the condition of the Queen. He did not want to live to regret it. But may be, just may be, this was THE chance he had been praying for.
"In that case I would agree to anything, ANYTHING you say my darling Queen Lotu! Um, er, yes, what is your condition?"
