Guardian of the Heart, and the Maiden of the Soul, Edited
Posted: Thu Feb 17, 2011 12:05 am
It was a brisk windy day on the moors. The Prince of Heart was walking about in his feilds. He owned many things, but never had a woman fallen in love with him. The Prince was an ugly thing.
But he was stricken with love for this particular maiden. She always stopped by his castle to smell the fresh flowers and listen to the songbirds. The Prince finally brought himself to her and asked for a date. She looked at his face scoffed and walked away.
This angered the Prince so much that he walked up to the woman and pulls the beauty right off her face. She doesn't notice at first and began her daily trip around town. she was laughed at and people dared not look at her. She noticed the princes trick and returned to him three times, each time with a different gift.
The first time she brings gold, the Prince rejects her, he had no need for gold. The second time she brought him food, the prince once again rejects her, he had all the best food in the world. The third time she brought her son and offered him up as sacrifice. The prince looked upon the woman with disdain. "You are so desperate you would trade life for beauty?" The man was sickened by her, he gave her her beauty back in order to allow himself peace away from the horrid woman. but left her with the one thing he said
