Cyrus spares Croesus' life when he realizes he is an ordinary man. First Cyrus orders that Croesus burns to death on a pyre because he wants to prove that he has supernatural powers that would prevent him from burning. Then Cyrus changes his mind. However, his servants can't put out the flames, so Croesus prays to Apollo and a storm extinguishes the fire.
In the end, Cyrus is certain that Croesus is a good man and makes him his advisor.

It teaches more about culture in general. You would get "used" to your culture. Let's say your Muslim and you don't pray often, once you do you'll be used to it and pass it on to your children and enrich your culture. Culture could mean anything from clothes to decor. Passing it down to future generations would enrich it. Hope this helps (;❤️
