[teaches values of loyalty, friendship, brotherhood]

Earth, Sol System, Syracuse Italy, in ancient Greek times:

Summary of the story of Damon and Pythias under the Tyrant Dionysius of Syracuse (ruled 405 to 367 BC, unless his son Dionysius II who ruled 367 to 356 and 347 to 344 BC)
Damon and Pythias were very close friends like brothers. Pythias angered the Tyrant Dionysius who ruled Syracuse, the major city of Sicily Island at the time. Pythias was condemned to death by Tyrant Dionysius. He was allowed to leave to settle his affairs in Greece before being put to death. This was allowed because his friend Damon agreed to take his place and be put to death in the place of Pythias should he not return.
Pythias was delayed for some reason but he did return to Syracuse, just in time to keep Damon from being killed in his place. Tyrant Dionysius was so impressed by the return of Pythias and their brotherly love that he forgave Pythias and asked both Pythias and Damon to be his personal friends, which was a great honor.

The Same is told of Khutsor and Akbor of the planet Tolars III. However in this case, Akbor was imprisoned, but not killed, by the King Cherukhan VI. Khutsor became a governor for King Cherukhan VI. Five years later when King Cherukhan was succeeded by his son King Shvaragdan V, Akbor was released from prison and reunited with his friend Khutsor. The descendants of Khutsor and Akbor are still governors of adjacent provinces to this day. There have been several marriages between these two lines of governors and also a couple marriages with the royal line. For example, Khutsor married Belita, first cousin of King Shvaragdan V, through his brother Tsardash.

The same story is also told of Talorgan and Prince Orkhan of the planet Beleri VII.

Prince Orkhan was the son of the King Biligtu-Khan XI of the planet Beleri VII and Prince of Dalogis.
Talorgan was from a commoner line and not royal like Prince Orkhan. Talorgan was a merchant in Dalogis and owned a store and restaurant at which Prince Orkhan often ate and sometimes shopped at. Somehow they became immediate and fast friends after getting to know each other. They became closer than brothers, which neither one of them had. However, King Biligtu-Khan XI thought that friendship with a commoner was beneath his son, of a royal line reigning for over 500 years. When Prince Orkhan and Talorgan refused to end their friendship, King Biligtu-Khan XI ordered the execution of Talorgan. When nothing would dissuade the King from his evil-minded desire to execute Prince Orkhan’s friend, Prince Orkhan stepped up and volunteered to take the place of Talorgan so that he may sell his business and say good bye to his family. One week was the agreed time. While the King was proud of the courage of his son, he despised that his plan of immediate execution had been delayed, by his own son no less!
Talorgan returned on the last day of the week after taking care of his family. He actually gave the business to his parents and all his belongings and money in the bank to his siblings. Their names are not recorded except that his mother was Talia the Merchant, through whom he inherited the store.
King Biligtu-Khan XI then realized his error and expressed that he was sorry for trying to break up such a good friendship that even God obviously smiled upon. The King freed them both and gave Talorgan his daughter Shushanna as a wife, made him vizier, and Prince of Dalokiya, that same Dalokiya which is the greatest harbor and largest shipping city on all of Beleri VII, even responsible for all space traffic to and from Beleri VII. The commoner who befriended the most powerful Prince became married to royalty and blessed by many riches and many children, ancestor to a line of “commoner” governors, the only commoners allowed to inter-marry with the royal family of Beleri VII.
