One night, a shadow knocked at princess Irene’s door and said, “Princess, please open the door.” “Don’t be scared. I will not harm you,” the shadow said. The princess opened the door and noticed that the shadow was of a man wearing a prince’s crown. She asked, “Who are you?” “I’m a prince from a far-away land. I saw you in the garden and fell in love with you. Will you marry me?” he asked. Just then, two evil men entered the room to kidnap the princess. The shadow prince took out his sword and defended the princess. The princess had fallen in love with the prince. She kissed the prince’s shadow. As soon as she did this, a handsome prince appeared from the shadow. The prince told the princess, “A wicked wizard cursed me and I became a shadow. Only true love could break the spell.” The prince and the princess married and lived happily, ever after.
