Description

Many a young water-splasher should be too horrific to be mistaken as one of our own, too Brobdingnagian or Maleficent to even be contemplated as kin, yet it is when the imagination seizes upon a deep and hidden beauty - which it believes has no equal - that the truth of this is often found in the heart of the beholder. Re-deep-affirmation lies in the sanctity of the heart's affections and the truth of imagination, for there is only one happiness in life - to love and be loved. As for the princess? Much like her grandmother, Snow White, she yearned for a true prince, but found them all too short for her tastes; much like her cousin, Cinderella, she tried going to dances, but her would-be suitors couldn't see the real her; and much like her sister, Sleeping Beauty, the princess had an arranged marriage, but found she'd rather sleep than spend time with her betrothed. The moral of the story is this - you have to toss a lot of frogs before you find your true prince. - I. Newt Onsalamandra
