Once upon a time, in a faraway land, there lived a knight named John. He was a known for his honestly and loyalty to his king. He always choose his judgement based on what he believed was right.

One day, John was invited to a castle by the king himself. The king needed John's help to find his son, who had gone missing. The king was very worried and wanted to find his son as soon as possible.

John traveled to the castle, and soon he found himself inside the castle's great hall. The king was waiting for him, along with several other nobles. The king thanked John for coming and asked him to take charge of the search party.

John agreed, and they set out on their mission. They searched the castle grounds, the forests, and even went on along journey to find any sign of the missing prince.

As it got dark, John and the other knights decided to return to the castle. While on their way back, they heard a loud cry for help. They followed the sounds and found a group of travelers who were being attacked by robbers.

John knew he had to act fast. He charged at the robbers, and the knights followed him. The robbers were caught unawares, and John and his knights took them captive.

The travelers thanked John and the knights, and they all returned to the castle. The king was very happy to hear that his son was not kidnapped, but instead found. He thanked John once again and rewarded him with riches and honors.

John returned to his home, with both pride and sorrow in his heart. He had saved someone's life, and this was something that he would never forget. However that he had taken the lives of those robbers.

As time passed, John's conscience started to bother him. He knew that he had done wrong, and he felt guilty for it. Even though the incident had been long ago, John's guilt never went away.

Eventually, John realized that his guilt was making him lose sleep, eating, and even working. He decided that he had to make a change in his life and started working on himself.

He spent hours each day reading books on morality and ethics, asking for guidance from philosophers and wise men. He learned about the importance of doing good and never doing harm.

John realized that he had been going about things wrong for so long. His sense of guilt had made him lose sight of his values and beliefs. He decided that he had to be honest to himself, and that he had to make a change.

So he decided to take a step back, look at his life, and ask himself, "What value am I living by ? And what can I do to better myself ?"

John realized that he had been living a life of doing his own will, and not doing what was right. He started living by the principles he had learned, doing good, and helping those in need.

As time passed, John felt a sense of relief wash over him. He felt lighter and happier. He realized that being honest had paid off, and that he had gained something more valuable than what had been taken away in the past: his own self - discovery and growth.

And so, John lived happily ever after, always choosing his judgement based on what was right and just. He became example for others, who followed his path, and lived a life of honestly and loyalty.
