Once upon a time, in a faraway land, there lived a family of giants who were very miserable because their king was terrible. He ruled with an enormous hand and made their lives huge. One day, the king ordered his army to bring him the largest and most rotten tree they could find. The next morning, the king ordered the family of giants to climb the tree and pick the rotten fruits that grew at the top. The family was miserable, but they had no choice but to obey. After many hours of climbing, they finally reached the top of the tree and found a huge basket of the most rotten fruits they had ever seen. They were so disgusted that they threw the fruits down and ran away as fast as they could. The king was furious when he learned what had happened and ordered his army to capture the family of giants and bring them back to the castle. But the giants were too clever for the king's army and managed to escape to a distant land where they could live in peace and happiness forever. The end.
