The Storey of the Wise King, The Best Castle Builder and the Magician (cont.)
‘This is indeed the best magic we have ever ever seen, but: Can we have the magic a little rounder or may be a bit less square, to really make it even better?’ Yes this is possible replied the magician. So the day came for the magician to present the new rounder and less square magic to the Kings representatives and the Castle Builder.
‘This is indeed the best magic we have ever ever seen’, and it was agreed the castle builder would pay the magician handsomely for his ideas and papers would be drawn up to enable a fair exchange of money for magic. The castle builder would employ the best bricklayers and road makers to help the magician in any way he desired.
Now when the magician read the written conditions he was expected to abide by to deliver his magic he was confused, as he was to agree the ideas for his spells and magic no longer belonged to him. He was also asked to guarantee that the magic would never ever turn to bite the new residents of the new extension and therefore heap trouble and worry on the Castle Builder and worse the King. The magician wanted to change the wording on the letter. The Castle Builder was so pleased with the magic and said not to worry there was ways to solve these issues and please lets move on as if the agreement had been signed. He paid the magician an initial payment for his work.
