The Tale of the Princess and the Lost Princes

👑 There was a king with ten sons and one daughter, but their stepmother wanted to send the sons away.

🕊️ The stepmother used magic to turn the sons into birds, and they flew away to another country.

🌳 The daughter, Elisa, ran away to find her brothers and eventually reached their home near a great sea.

👫 Elisa meets an old woman who offers her food and listens to her story.

🐦 The old woman suggests that the ten white birds with gold feet and jewel eyes may be the princes Elisa is looking for.

🏡 Elisa builds a small house and is visited by her brothers who tell her funny stories and give her encouragement.

🌼 The princess gathers gold flowers and makes coats for her brothers.

🤐 The princess is forbidden to speak until she finishes making the coats.

💔 The princess's brothers misunderstand her silence and think she is bewitched.

👑 Elisa's love interest asked her to be his queen, and she couldn't say no because she loved him.

🌺 Elisa and the king took the gold flowers and her work to his house, leaving her brothers sad.

🌙 The queen searched for more gold flowers in a place where dead animals were thrown, but had to wait for night to avoid judgment.

👑 The queen is seen getting flowers at night when the king is away.

🌹 The king's brother, suspicious of the queen, accuses her of using the flowers for bad magic.

⚔️ The king's brother plans to kill the queen before the king returns.

🏰 The king sees a white bird and realizes it's a fairy from the Queen who wants him to return to the city.

🌟 The king and his men follow the white bird all night, while Elisa works with her gold flowers.

🔥 The people of the city gather in front of the King's house, and the white birds take some sticks but not all.

👑 The king becomes angry when the people build a fire and the queen calls white birds to transform her brothers into princes.

👦 The people refuse to let the queen die, and a little boy speaks up with everyone else in agreement.

🐦 The queen uses white birds to transform her brothers while the king's brother is thrown from the city walls and never seen again.
