Wonderful Mirror

BR Raksun

There was an empire. There are no mirrors in that empire. People do not know how they will look like.

There was a diligent farmer. The spring is ahead. The farmer was working with his land. It forked land and roughly dug. 

The roots of weeds exposed to the frosts that would follow. He is planning to plant over wintering vegetables like cauliflower and onions, garlic and leeks.

The sun is shining. It reflected in the mirror. It has come out from the land while lifting and digging the soil as he forked. The farmer could not recognize what it is. When he gazed in it, he saw his face.

The farmer thought that his father is hidden in the instrument and he has come to bless him. He took the mirror, carefully kept it in his trunk.

His wife is squabbling and discordant, bickering and conflicting. She saw her husband in the room, locked inside. He meets his father in the mirror and explains him his wows. He is not happy with his wife. She always shows her anger finding fault with him.

Whenever the farmer is in home, he is in the locked-room. His wife got fed up with him. What is he doing in the room? One day, when the farmer is not at home, she searched the room with a lot of investigation. Finally, she found the mirror.

When she looked in this, she saw her image. She was angry on her husband, thinking that he has relationship with another woman. She does not know that it is seeing her image in the mirror.

She decided to report the matter to the emperor. She dragged her husband to the court and reported to the emperor on her husband. She asked the emperor to view who is hidden in the mirror.

The emperor also knows not what mirror is. He examined it and looked inside the mirror. The emperor saw his own image in the mirror. It is in imperial dress with the sword hanging to his waist. The emperor knows not that it is his own image. He thought that the farmer has concealed his enemy in the mirror and brought him directly in to the court. He was angry at him and he hurled the mirror.

The mirror hit the ground and it is broken in to four pieces. The emperor saw his enemy in all the four pieces. So he is more annoyed thinking that more enemies are brought in. Just then, his smart minister came there. He is sharp by nature and so he found that it is a device which shows the image when we look in to this. He also does not know a mirror.

He named it reflector or imager. The scholars named it mirror. The emperor ordered to make mirrors in his empire. Later, this empire is called ‘Mirror Empire’.
