The Giant of the Flood:
- A giant goes out of his way to guarantee his survival through the floods by making Father Noah help him.
- Og basically became Noah's slave. Sacrificed a lamb, a pig and a monkey to bless wine so when man drinks too much he behaves silly.
- Og eventually turns against Noah's word and opposes the Israelites. His plan to use the mountain to harm them failed and Moses was able to mortally strike him with a sword. Years later he perished.
- King gets mad at the Holy Book and tears out any pages that he dislikes because he is unwise.
- Goes on hunt and with no success ends up getting stuck in woods to learn a lesson from a Genie.
- He is forced to do be the servant of a troop of blind beggars as a punishment for his sin.
- After he has completed his punishment, he returns to throne and rules with kindness and sympathy to his subjects.
- Cat and dog were best of friends until the winter came. Dog became depressed and Cat became restless and angry.
- Cat suggests they split up because they cannot find enough food together to share. Dog is upset by this but reluctantly agrees. They make a pact to never cross paths again.
- Cat goes to Adam's for mice as food and forgets about Dog. Dog doesn't fare well and nearly dies. He finds Adam's house by accident.
- Cat is unhappy Dog now lives there. They fight constantly because Cat is upset Dog broke the oath and this is why they all always fight.
- Princess Bathia finds Moses floating on the Nile river.
- Princess throws Moses a birthday party and at the party he puts on the Pharaoh's crown. Bilal takes this as a sign that he means to steal the throne. Everyone else brushes it off as nothing because he is only a child.
- Bilam requests that he be judged.
- Moses has to choose between a burning coal and jewels to stay alive. He chooses the coal.
- Reuel gives the Princess a staff that was given to Adam when he left the Garden of Eden and said that it will passed down to Moses.
- Years later when Moses became a man, he was able to read the magical words on the staff and with that staff he did the amazing things that he did in Egypt (when he free the children of Israel as related in the Bible).
From Shepard-boy to King:
- David understood the world around him. He heard someone whisper that he will be the king of Israel one day.
