[It's been a while since Namine has drawn on the network. And her pokemon feels the need to correct this. So the gear perches itself mysteriously held by one of her pokemon as she sketches out something from something she's been recently told.]





... the tale of Snow White. I wonder if there are any other... tales out there like this.

That's a very beautiful drawing.

I think there are many fairy tales similar in nature. Cinderella, Snow White, the Twelve Dancing Princesses. The story of the tinderbox and the dog with eyes as big as saucers.

It's not an entirely moral or pleasant story, but I'm fond of the dogs. A soldier was tasked by a witch to retrieve a tinder box from a cave beneath a tree. In the first room, sat upon a chest of copper pieces, was a dog with eyes the size of saucers. In the second room, upon a chest of silver pieces, was a dog with eyes the size of mill wheels. In the third, was a dog with eyes the size of a castle tower sat on a chest of gold pieces.

Of course, the soldier fills his pockets with gold, but then he kills the witch and takes the tinder box as well. He ends up killing a king and queen and marrying the princess.
