Story: once upon a rhyme.... wait that's not how it goes? Ok, I'll try again. *ahem* Once upon a chime... wrong again? How's it supposed to go then? ...Ah, yes, that's what I meant to say! Once upon a time, there was a skunk, and no, he did not stink, none of the skunks did back then. He smelled beautiful, like a summer rose garden. ... what do you mean roses stink? Stop interupting my story! Anyways, this lovely smelling skunk thought he was better than all the other animals because he didn't stink like musty fur. Soon the other animals grew tired of his bosting and ignored the skunk as often as they could. The skunk, caught up in his haughtiness, pretended not to notice. Then as summer turned to fall, and the wind blustered and bellowed, skunk met a dog. Now, this dog was ravenous. She has not eaten for a week, and when she smelt the skunk she thought, "mmm that would make a fine supper for me!" And if not for a small rustling of leaves, the skunk would have been gobbled up. He jumped back in surprise and ran as fast as he could, with the dog snapping at his heels! "Help, help!" He cried, but no animal came to his aid. "Oh please," he begged, "is there anyone that can save me?" "I can," a mysterious voice replied, "but you have to give up something you treasure" "yes, please, I'd give anything!" The skunk exclaimed. Soon he noticed a horrible smell wafting around him. The dog halted in her tracks, her appetite lost. Wide eyed the skunk celebrated his victory thanks to his unseen savior, and waited for the smell to go away... but it didn't. Dismayed he realized he had given up his beautiful smell in exchange for his life. But, after many months, with nothing to obsessively brag about, he made new friends, and word spread to the other skunks about his adventure. Soon every skunk asked the mysterious voice to help them too... and that is why skunks stink! ...now how did you like my sto- ... looks like you're asleep already, goodnight you little stinker.

Has anyone told you of the story of the witch's daughter?

Once upon a time in a land far from here, a land decorated in golden flowers and oaks taller than the empire state building, there lived a witch. This witch resided in the darkest and deepest parts of the Eastern Wicked Woodland, a place shrouded in black magic and creatures that ate grown men whole, a mile walk from The Kingdom. This witch was old and weary, never left the edge of the forest and was only seen from within the shadows of the trees, but rumor began to spread of her daughter. A mysterious little thing, all brightly coloured hair and soft features, she kind of looked like you now that I think about it.

This little girl wandered from the woodlands each day, walked the entire mile through feilds alone, and entered the kingdom village. It wasn’t long after her fifth birthday she started the daily routine, but she never missed a day. From the sidelines folks whispered about her, how she was an outsider, would grow up to be as wicked as the woods she lived in. Most days the parents pulled theie children awat in fear, but some days the unattended children chased her town with rotten tomates and horrible words.

It was the day of the witch’s daughter’s 10th birthday that the townspeople started to fall gravely ill, a small cold turning into full blown plague that wiped out a quarter of the village population overnight, the strange illness was named Dragon’s Cough and was highly contiguous. Most assumed only the witch could be responsible for this.

Soon The Princess, the kings only child, fell ill. The king in a rage and loss for explination called a manhunt on The Witch, a reward of one hundred gold to whoever brough him her head and ended the rumored curse. Hours later her daughter arrived at the King’s door.

“Dear King, I come here only to help. You see, my Mama fell ill with an ancient influenza that can only be cured with a plant from the swamp, and she allowed me to share some with your people when we heard of the princess suffering the same fate. Your majesty, I fear she will parish if you don’t trust me.”

Through that night the witch’s daughter crushed petals of golden flowers and toadstools, mixed them with indigo swampwater and a strange little plant never before seen by anyone, and spoonfed the mixture to the small princess.

When the princess awoke the entire kingdom errupted in glee, the manhunt called off, and the gold placed in the little girls hands, to which she shook her head.

“Why, my majesty, I do not wish for your gold, I simply wish for your people to have a more open mind towards people different than themselves. Instead of assuming us evil, get to know our insides before judging the out. It may just save you life one day, Dear King.”
