The king send his four generals to search for water in all directions. The first general went east, the towards the sunrise the second to the south, to dust and heat the third went west, where the sun sets, and the fourth followed the North Star.
They searched day and night, night and day, high and low they searched everywhere but in vain. Three of the generals returned, empty-handed but general who had gone north determined, not to fall his king finally reached a cold mountain village.
As he sat at the foot of the mountain an old woman came by and set next to him. The general pointed at the horizon and said, “I belong to a beautiful kingdom, where it has not rained for a whole year can you help me find water ?” The woman motioned the general to follow her up the mountain and inside a cave. “We have no water in our country either”, she said. Then, pointing to the icicles in the cave, she continued, “We call this ice. Take some, and your kingdom will water go thirsty again.” The general broke off a hug piece, loaded into his horse-cart and court.
The enormous icicles had melted into a small lump of ice. Nobody in the court had ever seen ice so everybody gazed at it with wonder !” This must be a water seed.” One of the ministers exclaimed suddenly. The icing ordered the ‘water-seed’ to be sowed immediately. While the farmers dug a hole, the lump dwindled in the sun. The swiftly placed the seed in the hole, but, before they could cover it, it had vanished. The farmers there got confused and worried. They dug the earth deeper and deeper at into the night, looking for the mysterious seed.
At the break of down, the king found the farmers fast asleep around a hole curiously, he peeped in and cried out in amazement, “Wake up my worthy men, the water-seed has sprouted ! There’s water in the hole!” This is how the first well was created.
