The princess’s father, King Bernard IV of Shatilay, loved his daughter more than anything in the whole world. He wanted oh so much for her to find true love and live happily ever after! Night after night, he called her into his chamber.

“My dearest daughter, did you find yourself a prince that suited you today?’

“No father, I did not!” she would reply.

At this, the king would become angry. “Why will you not accept these prestigious offers of marriage? I am an old man, I have no son, no rightful heir. You must marry soon, my dear. In order to secure the safety of our kingdom!”

She wouldn’t want the king to hear she’d been out snooping around outside the castle walls. She peered into the well. Just as she did she saw something small and green flying up at her.

“Um, don’t you mean, who was that?” came a strange, squeaky sounding voice.
