I like how the girl didn't deny what she really was at the end too. This had the feel of an original fairy tale, which I love :) I'm glad the girl also found someone who could love her for who she is :)Hazel Westhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01234157921832851920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3012189846533980168.post-5611255721852296232016-09-07T14:31:02.091-04:002016-09-07T14:31:02.091-04:00Ah, yes, an excellent tale.

I am of a logical mindset, therefore impossibilities being portrayed as possibilities always send me into a state of confusion, attempting to figure it out, which causes paradoxes and the such, so I am probably not the ideal reader of such a story. However, I still enjoyed reading it, so all's well!Joseph Leskeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01538730679002750119noreply@blogger.com
