The story is about a king who causes death to a hundred innocent tigers. He does so because a tiger has been predicted as the cause of his death. In his pride of power, he takes so many lives of the tigers. But in spite of his hunting so many tigers, the prediction comes true. One day, he is playing with his son with a wooden tiger which has sharp slivers of wood. One such piece pierces his hand. The wound takes his life. Thus, it is a fine example of dramatic irony.

Dr Sadao brought the wounded enemy soldier at home. Later on his mind was torn by the conflict between ms loyalty to his country and his duty as a doctor. It was his moral and ethical duty as a doctor to treat an ill or wounded person, irrespective of his nationality. Finally, his duty as a doctor compelled him to help the enemy soldier thus resolving the conflict, Sadao believed in human values above everything else.
