The Proud King

Once upon a time, in a Victorian Castle, there lived a king who was searching for the perfect queen. He has sent thousands of invitations around the world & great ships carrying letters across the seas. But to no avail, no one could find someone who fits with the King's desire.

He heard about an amazing fortune teller who lives far away from his kingdom. Hiding in a deep forest no one ever dared to conquer. His servants dare to tell, "Rumor says he can find whatever your heart desires."

"But oh Our Mighty King, this servant doesn't dare speak ill, the forest is full of mystery where no one has yet to succeed."

The King did not deem to consider and immediately sent troops on trail, "Bring me to this teller and do not listen to these fools nonsense!"

They immediately arrived at the forest but they saw a panther guarding the entrance. Disbelief were painted on their faces, it had a glass half full in one hand and a knife on the other.

"How brazen are these mortals! Haven't you heard about the stories around here?", the panther mocking voice made every one wince on their position.

But the King did not budge, determine to set foot on the next path. "Well then," he told the king he can only see the teller if he could solve the riddle for the entrance's pass.
