Answer:

He starts to regret the selfish decisions he has made.

Explanation:

Maibon selfishly wanted to remain young and never grow old. That was why he asked for a stone from the dwarf. He soon discovered that the stone's effect also affected all the things around him. For that reason, he did not grow older and neither did his produce in the farm not the animals he reared. He then realized the foolishness of his actions and decided to return the stone to the dwarf.

When he saw the dwarf, he lamented his woes to him and the dwarf instructed him to bury the stone with no longing for it in his heart again. He did this and was so glad to eventually grow old.
