Polar Bear

A story about Loyalty,
adapted from Tales of All Times
by The Mother
In the North,
where the sea is frozen into thick ice
and the ground
is nearly always white with snow,
lives a people
knownas the Inuit.
In this land,
a white polar bear
once saved the lives
of three men.
They had fallen into the sea
and had caught hold of a bear
as he swam,
and he carried them
to the shore.
They were very grateful
and wished to repay their debt.
“Thank you,” said the bear,
“I don't need anything for the moment.
But if ever you are out
with other men and
you catch me,
would you please ask them
to spare my life?
You will recognise me
by my bald head.”
So saying, he dived into the sea
and swam away.
Next winter,
the Inuit of the same tribe
saw a bear on the ice
and set off in pursuit.
Among the hunters
were the three men whose lives
had been saved
by the bald-headed bear.
They discovered
that it was the same animal.
They begged their companions
to leave him alone.
What is more, they prepared
a good meal for
him and spread it out
in front of him on the ice.
He ate heartily
and lay down on the ice
to sleep;
no one harmed him
and the children played
around him without fear.
When he awoke he
went down towards the sea,
dived in and swam away.
The Inuit
never saw him again,
but they always remembered
their friend the bear.
