Once, in a kingdom far, far away, ruled this king named Arthur who had many talented people in his kingdom. Among one of these talented people there was an architect named Sid who could make almost anything from any material.
The king was a bit greedy and also loved eating chocolates. So, he asked Sid, the architect, and Ben, the chocolate maker to build a chocolate palace. Both of them disagreed to do this because the palace would melt and eventually lead to a chocolate flood. The king didn’t think about what Sid and Ben said and got very furious with both of them. He said, “If the palace isn’t built on time, I will execute both of you.”
Sid and Ben now had to work on the palace. It took some time but was a success.
The king started to live in the palace, sometimes eating the wall or the floor. One day, while he was enjoying some chocolate, sitting on his couch, he realized that a drop of chocolate fell on his face…and happy realization! The palace had already started to melt and as Sid and Ben had said, there did actually occur a chocolate flood.
The kingdom was now full of chocolate. There were people eating and drinking chocolate all over the kingdom.
Once the chocolate was cleared, Arthur was put in jail by his own people and there was peace once again. But now, Sid and Ben were the main highlights. Some people blamed them, some were impressed. Both of them said, “The king wanted a palace, we gave him one, but now if he wants a chocolate jail, then he is done.” The two were never seen again.
