Once upon a time, there lived a king with his two daughters, Stella and Layla in a kingdom called Alfea. The king ruled Alfea for many years. As time passed, the king grew old and it is time for the king to pass the crown to one of his daughters. He was unable to choose the rightful heir between his two daughters.

Soon Alfea is hit by an epidemic virus and the people began to die. A wise minister finds out that the fairy of healing power can heal the citizens of Alfea. But the problem is the fairy resides on the top of a tall mountain and whoever goes to ask her for help may face many difficulties.

The king summoned his two daughters and told them that whoever brings the medicine from the fairy will get to rule the kingdom after him. Stella and Layla agreed on the condition.

The princesses climbed the tallest mountain for so many days and reached the top of the mountain and prayed for the fairy of healing power to appear. Impressed by their prayers, the fairy of healing power appeared infront of them.


When they both asked for the medicine, the fairy put forward a proposal to both of them.

"Princesses of Alfea, I can grant you with my healing powers. No virus or no disease can touch you again. You will be free from all the suffering and pain that occurs due to diseases or I can give you the medicine you want. Choose Wisely.", The fairy said.


Layla thought for a while and said, "I will choose your healing powers because people eventually die with this virus or some other disease. I don't want to waste this opportunity for them."

Stella thought for a while and said, "I will choose the medicine because there are a lot of people waiting in Alfea with the hope that their princesses will save them. I can't let down my people and their trust on me. I will protect them at any cost."


"Stella, You won my heart with your selflessness. I will grant you my healing powers. With them, you can cure any disease and no disease can touch you.", The fairy said and disappeared.

Stella cured all the people of Alfea with her healing powers and ruled the city as the queen. While Layla spent her life regretting her decision.


Moral: Never deviate from your goal owing to temptations and materialistic pleasures.
