When In Perfect Ease In A Relationship...
The emissary was too happy to share with the king about a strange martial art that he had witnessed while he was having supper in a wayside inn.
The inn was under the process of renovation and there were a lot of workers engaged in the renovation job. An old carpenter due to his carelessness got a lime on his nose. It was too tiny and thin as the wing of a fly, yet it was quite a thing on his nose.

The emissary could not help jumping off his seat in a fearful anticipation of the head of the carpenter getting chopped. The axe just passed right in front of the nose and whisked away the tiny piece of lime from the carpenter's nose sans a small scratch on his nose!
The king was spellbound and asked the emissary to bring the mason to his court in order to see the extraordinary feat.

When the king enquired the reason, the mason replied that he could only carry out his skill with his carpenter friend. The king said that the carpenter can be summoned. The mason said sadly that it was highly impossible as his friend had passed away!
