The story ofEleanor andthe kingof Winter by Xenos 77. 78. In the fairyland an everlasting Spring used to light up the subjects life, and everyone enjoyed a cheerful prosperity.The magic and enchantment of jewelled palaces and fabulous gardens crowded with trees laden with fruits were though overshadowed by the overwhelming belle Eleanor, the Princess whose beauty had no equal. One day, the King of Winter was flying across the clouds escorted by the icy wind when his eagle-eye captured her and suddenly he couldnt help but falling in love with the belle. He then asked to marry the Princess but she didnt accept and told him kindly she would never leave her fathers land, a land devoted to water nymphs, gnomes and fairies.. The king of Winter flew into such a rage that he had the Spring land caught into a deadly darkening freeze, and everything turned into ice, death and darkness. If I cant marry the belle Eleanor, Spring will disappear forever! he icily shouted himself hoarse. Then he decided to go and live on his own into a fortress built in the mountains, waiting for her to be pushed into his arms. Meanwhile, in the magic land, the once cheerful subjects, fairies and all animals in the woods were going through hard times suffering like they were not used to. 79. My dear daughter the wise King said to Eleanor Im afraid we have no choice, and youll have to get married and live with him in his land; you must leave us but your supreme sacrifice shall give our land its Spring back as well as all the joy which we barely remember with longing. Eleanor thus accepted to make the supreme sacrifice; her favourite horse was saddled and some escort provided to take her across the mountains toward the cruel kings fortress. An everlasting storm surrounded the mountains but as soon as the eagles foretold the coming of the belle Eleanor, thewinds and fog cleared up and the Princess was accompanied by a fine bright day, as there used to be once.She reached the icy fortress and was warmly welcomed by the Lord of the Storm; he honoured her with charm and sweetness longing for sadness to leave the belle Princess, and again in vain. Then he said If you accept to marry me,you might spend a part of the year in your fatherland bringing along Spring and hot Summer.But you must come back to me and then in your magic land my own seasons will replace yours. There shall come the melancholic Fall and the Winter of hibernation for all living beings. Princess Eleanor accepted and thus the four seasons followed, and after every Winter there comes the Spring. 80. Eleonor: I love my people and I shall do whatever to make them happy 81. Winter 82.
