Prince Marcos was blessed with the power of flight. He could fly like a bird! However, he never used his power for good.
He refused to help anyone in trouble and one day his friends decided to teach him a lesson. They called him to a place in the clouds where important decisions were made. There, they decreed that he would have to visit another realm to learn to use his power for good. He wouldn't be able to use his powers of flight during the visit.
Prince Marcos visited a country where he found children playing all day long. He saw a little kid throw a ball high into the sky and it bounced... How cool! Then all of a sudden the ball got stuck in a tree and the child started to cry.
“Aha! - thought Prince Marcos. – I must fly to the tree and return the ball to the child.”
What a thing! He couldn't fly. He had to climb the tree and it wasn't very easy. He fell twice out of the tree and scraped his knees terribly! It was only then that he realized how easy it would have been to help others with his power to fly.
Prince Marcos returned home wiser, always ready to help others with his power.
