Answer:
Your Majesty,
I want to bring a matter to your notice that my kid has been held captive in your court. I am the mother of that baby elephant you captured yesterday for a mistake he did not make.
He is in fact just a kid who has the least knowledge about wrong and right. It was not his intention to dishonour or hurt the sentiments of the royal family.
I request you to give my kid a chance to improve himself and learn from his mistakes. After all, at his age, we have all made some mistakes, intentionally or unintentionally. I love my kid more than anything in this world, he is the only hope that I live for.
Please release him; I assure you he won't commit any mistakes from now on that affects the imperial power.
Kindly forgive him and reunite me with my kid; I love my kid as much as you love yours. At least, to honour your love for your family; release my son giving the last chance.
Thank you.

Momma Elephant,
Green fields.
Dear King,
Hail your majesty! This is to plead you to release my son (2 months) who was captured yesterday when we were on migration from the square pond to the dark green grasses.
Our herd is very much aware that we were not supposed to cross the blue streamline as ordered by you. But, because my son was a child, he was innocent. While we were busy planning the quantity of our food for the day, he just slipped and walked away with his tiny feet.
As the blue stream was too narrow, ignorantly he slipped and crossed it. The soldiers immediately captured him and pulled him away. By the time we ran to plead for his release, it was too late.
We know that we are not supposed to place such matters before your majesty, but I found no other way to save my son. Please understand the feelings of a mother from my shoes.
Humbly, pleading you to accept my request to release my son.
Thanking you sir.
Yours Sincerely and with full of pain,
Momma Elephant.
