Beauty and the Beast

Once upon a time, in a distant land, there lived a young prince in a magnificent castle. And although he had everything that the soul desired, he was corrupt, selfish and unfriendly.

Once, on a winter night, an old beggar came to the castle and promised him a rose flower for shelter and warmth. But her ugliness distracted the prince, he snorted at her gift and sent the grandmother away. She warned that appearances are often deceiving, because true beauty lies within.

But when the prince was deaf to her words, the grandmother’s ugliness disappeared and a beautiful enchantress appeared before him. The prince began to beg, but it was too late, she already saw that his heart did not know love. And she punished him, turning him into an ugly monster, and she put a terrible spell on the castle with its inhabitants.

Ashamed of his inhuman likeness, the prince locked himself in the castle and his only window to the outside world was a magic mirror. The rose given by the sorceress was also magical and was supposed to bloom until the day he turned 21. If he can love another person and win her love before the last petal falls, the spell will lose its power, and if not, then he will live as a monster for the rest of his days.

Over the years, he fell into despair and despair, because who would be able to love the Beast?
