short stories by Vicky

Once upon a time, there was a small kingdom, high in the mountains. The road to this kingdom was dangerous, lost in a deep forest and no one gone there. The people from this kingdom lived in isolation, but they did not complain. The nature there was beautiful and rich, the air was fresh and healthy, the goats were many and the life for the highlanders was quiet and comfortable.

The king of that kingdom was good and wise, but as sometimes happens in the life – he had a big worry in his heart. His only daughter was so ugly, that even the most devotional servants were afraid of her look. To protect his only child, the king made an order – the mirrors in the kingdom were forbidden. The people were good and friendly. They loved their princess, no matter of her scary look. That because they throw away all the mirrors and this way nothing showed or told to the king’s daughter that she is different.
