The Secret of the Swine Prince

The Secret of the Swine Prince

Once, in a distant and enchanted kingdom, a king and queen ruled with kindness and wisdom. One fateful evening, their castle was visited by three mysterious fairies. With a magical glow in their wings, each carried a gift for the queen.

The first fairy endowed the queen with an aura that would protect her from all male harm. The second fairy bestowed upon her a wisdom that surpassed all other women. But the third fairy, with a loving yet unsettling smile, foretold that the queen would give birth to a son who would take the form of a pig. This would remain his fate until he found love with three women.

Time passed, and the queen gave birth to a son who, despite his swine form, was loved by his parents. He grew up in the benevolent atmosphere of the castle and learned to speak with a human voice. However, his joy in wallowing in mud under the open sky was a constant reminder of the fairy’s prophecy.

One day, the swine prince, now a brave young man, proclaimed his longing for marriage. The queen, with a heart full of hope, searched far and wide for a woman who could see beyond the prince’s exterior. After countless rejections, she found a mother willing to offer her eldest daughter to the prince in exchange for a place at the throne.

But love did not blossom, and fear turned to betrayal. The young princess planned to betray the swine prince. When he discovered her plans, he was forced to defend himself with tragic consequences. The queen was heartbroken, but hope never died, and the search continued.

Under threats from the swine prince, the next sister was offered to him. But fate played the same cruel joke, and once again, the castle was shrouded in sorrow. However, when the youngest and most beautiful sister stepped forward, with eyes full of understanding and a heart without fear, a new era began for the swine prince.

She accepted him with open arms, and as they shared their lives together, the swine prince revealed his true form to her under the moonlight. The next morning, the kingdom awoke to see their prince in his human form, with his beloved princess by his side.

And as happiness spread through the land, the swine prince sat on the throne, with his princess and their newborn heir. Hope blossomed in the heart of the kingdom, and they lived happily ever after.
