Based on the Panchatantra tale involving King Sivi, here is a children’s story in narrative form:

A Tale of Compassion: The Sacrifice of King Sivi

Once upon a time, in a land graced by many wise rulers, stood a kingdom where King Sivi ruled with enormous generosity and kindness. His reputation for helping the needy spread far and wide, reaching the heavens where even the celestial beings took notice.

One bright morning, after King Sivi had performed his ablutions, he settled into his hall of justice to attend to the day’s duties. In the midst of his tranquil routine, a frantic dove, pursued by a relentless falcon, sought refuge at his feet. The dove’s eyes brimming with fear and wings fluttering with exhaustion, it pleaded, “O King, grant me your protection. Save me from the falcon’s deadly grasp!”

Image Prompt 1 (Random Seed: 12345678): A scared and trembling dove with wide, fearful eyes, seeking refuge at the feet of a regal king in an opulent hall of justice.

Hardly had the dove spoken, when the falcon landed gracefully yet firmly, imploring the king, “O mighty ruler, the dove is my prey, my sustenance; it is my right to claim it as food.”

Image Prompt 2 (Random Seed: 12345678): A majestic falcon with sleek feathers, landing in a dignified hall before a king, requesting its prey—the dove.

The dove argued for mercy, citing the rule that those who seek refuge must be protected. The falcon, driven by nature’s decree, stood determined to receive what it believed to be rightfully its meal.

Image Prompt 3 (Random Seed: 12345678): The king caught between the dove’s plea for protection and the falcon’s claim for its natural food.

King Sivi, compassionate yet just, found himself in a conundrum. He offered, “I shall provide you with meat from my kitchens, dear falcon, if you would spare the dove.”

But the falcon, unyielding, demanded, “We falcons feast on living prey. If you can offer flesh equal to the weight of this dove, I shall accept.”

Resolved to uphold his duty as protector, King Sivi consented to the falcon’s grim request.

Image Prompt 4 (Random Seed: 12345678): King Sivi in his regal attire, compassionately agreeing to a falcon’s harsh condition inside a grand hall filled with counsel.

The onlookers were horrified as Sivi placed the dove on one side of a balance and began cutting his own flesh to match its weight. No matter how much he gave, the scales refused to tip in his favor.

Image Prompt 5 (Random Seed: 12345678): A king cutting flesh from his own body, a set of scales with a dove on one side in a treasury room, onlookers watching in dismay.

In the ultimate act of selflessness, King Sivi stepped onto the pan himself, a sacrifice so great that the heavens took notice.

Image Prompt 6 (Random Seed: 12345678): A noble king, surrendering himself on a balance scale in a grand act of sacrifice, under the watchful eyes of celestial beings.

Miraculously, heavenly drums and bugles sounded, flowers rained down, and voices from all directions chanted praise for Sivi’s unparalleled sacrifice.

As the truth unfolded, it was revealed that the falcon was none other than Yama, and the dove, Indra—gods who had come to test the legendary compassion of King Sivi.

Image Prompt 7 (Random Seed: 12345678): The skies parting as deities manifest in their true forms, celebrating a mortal king’s selflessness in an opulent court.

They blessed him, restoring his body to wholeness, leaving all to marvel at King Sivi’s boundless love for all creatures.
