The advisers of the King identify that throne as the throne of King Vikramaditya. King Vikramaditya was very well known and respected for his judgment, which was always proven to be the best and just. The advisers tell the king that if he sits on this throne he will also be able to pass the best judgment. Therefore, the King sits on the throne, now happy that he will also be well known for his judgments. However, as he sits on the throne, one of the angel statues on the throne comes to life and explains to the king that it's not only about sitting on this great throne of the great king that will make him the best judge. There are many more superior qualities that are needed which he lacks. The angel tells him one story related to one quality that a best judge must possess and flies away. In the same manner, one after another, the angels tell a story related to a quality and fly away. Thus, all the angels fly away after making the king realize that he does not possess the qualities to make him eligible even to sit on this throne. Some of these qualities are selflessness, complete honesty, lack of bias or favoritism and a true urge to give justice.
