When the son was taken back, the parents had to take care of him. When he grew up, they sent him to live with his grandmother. He helped her working in her garden. One day, Princess Lun, the daughter of King Intapat came to the garden where Tao Kam Ka Dam was working. Tao Kam Ka Dam saw her and felt in love with her. It was love at first sight. He talked to himself, “So beautiful you are! What can I do to have a chance to talk to you?”
One night, Tao Kam Ka Dam went to the town and playing his Kaen, a local music instrument. When the King heard his Kaen, he was very happy. He asked his servant to ask Thao Kam Ka Dam to go to play Kaen in the palace. Tao Kam Ka Dam decided to go there because he thought that this would be a good chance for him to get close to the Princess.
