Selling much of the ivory for gold, Sinbad used the gold to buy new rare presents, so he could still provide the caliph of his country with something as the gifts provided by the king of Sri Lanka were stolen by the pirates.

The first thing Sinbad did when he got home to Baghdad was present himself and the presents to the caliph, who admitted that while he was a bit worried about Sinbad after realizing how long its been since he left, had a positive attitude.

He loved Sinbad’s story regarding the elephants, claiming he would not have believed it if it were not for the fact that he recognized Sinbad’s strong honesty.

Just like what the king of Sri Lanka did, the caliph ordered all of Sinbad’s stories to be inscribed in gold and stored in the city’s written archives.

While thankful for the caliph’s recognition, Sinbad was just glad to be home. This time, he was going to stay home with his family, friends, and fortune for the rest of his days.
