A king and queen who have long had everything they desire except a kid, are finally graced with one but are immediately confronted with tragedy. The queen dies on the day after her kid is born, however, not before she warns her man never to let their son's legs touch the bottom or else he'll be immediately used by an evil fairy. As he grew, individuals were careful to keep him from touching the bottom - using wheelchairs, litters, and even horses, which he especially excelled at. One day when he was out traveling, his saddle broke and he dropped to the bottom and immediately vanished. Beneath the control of the evil fairy, he's advised he must obey her every control or else he'll be greatly punished. Her first order was for him to cut down all the trees in a forest by using a cup axe - and NOT talk with a girl he could face on his way. Certainly, the cup axe shattered at its first contact with the tree. Frightened and hopeless, he curls up and falls asleep, and then be woken by the same gal he had been warned against. The lady is also imprisoned by the fairy, who is also her mom, and she offers to help the prince do whatever is asked of him, as long as he guaranteed to help her in exchange. When the evil fairy discovers both are helping one another, she actually is outraged and decides to consider her anger out on both of them. Both are then left to attempt to get away from and outwit the evil fairy on the search to be free. Andrew Lang (1844-1912) was a Scottish writer who accumulated fairy and folk tales from various ethnicities and put them jointly in twelve amounts of tales. He was noted when planning on taking the tales from as many original sources as you can, keeping the fairy tales near to their supposed meanings.
