in #fiction6 years ago

The King and his head wife then arrived and sat on their stool in the middle of the square, all the people saluting them with their usual greetings. The King then addressed the people and said that he had called them together to hear a strong case at the request of the young man who had been the victor of the wrestling and who had promised that if the case went against him he would offer up his life to the guards.
The King also said that if, on the other hand the class was decided in the boy's favour, then the other party would be killed, eve though it were himself or one of his wives; whoever it was, would have their heads cut off by the guards.

To this all the people agreed, and said they would like to her what the young man had to say. The young man then walked round the square and bowed to the King and the peole, then he asked the question. Am I not worthy to be the Son of any chief in the country? and all the people answered, you are worthy!
The boy then brought his sister out into the middle, leading her by the hand. She was a beautiful girl and she was well made, when everyone had looked at her, he said: is my sister not worthy to be any chief's daughter? and the reply he got was that, she was worthy of being anyone's daughter.
