Prince Fallacy, Heir To The Kingdom Of Peccance

Fairytale

Once upon a time, in the faraway land of Clandestia, Prince Fallacy, heir to the Kingdom of Peccance, was feeling largely dismayed by the lousy damsel before him. They were currently stood in the Peccance castle, shaped by points (-9, -17), (-5,-17), (-9, -14) and (-5, -14). "Please, Fa," she pleaded. "The last time I let Drogher run wild, he ate all the kingdom's pasties and everyone blamed me." "For the last time, Finis, I am not chasing down your demented cow." Princess Finis of Herald shook her head at the young prince's words and headed for the window. "My griffin, Fa, my griffin. Meet me at the crossroads tomorrow at daybreak. Farewell!" And so, before the prince could object, gone was the princess, clambering out the

~ Their destination was ever growing closer. Soon, the prince and princess were nearing the point where the road conjoined with y=-3x. A blackbird, or perhaps a crow, flew overhead. The prince made no effort to look at it, as he'd already had enough experience with terrible black things to ensure he didn't see his own shadow without jumping. The bird, however, was attempting to make itself known; it began to circle overhead, following the prince wherever he went. "Leave, you miser, you- ow!" Fallacy shrieked. The bird had descended and appeared to be trying to gouge his eyes out. "No, no, no, stop! I am a prince, I-" Finis walked up to him serenely. Between dodges, Fallacy made sure to curse her mentally. "Fa, stop doing that funny little dance. There's a crow attacking you, you know." "I know!" Fallacy cried, twirling around and bobbing his head up and down. "Why else would I taint my name like such?" "Stop, good sir," said Finis, poking his …show more content…
She knew, no, she had known of his true nature. Catching Fallacy's gaze, she grinned widely, and he could feel a smile gracing his own face. Finis raised a pale hand to brush one of his raven locks behind his ear, before leaning up and planting true love's kiss on his lips. The kiss was tender, chaste, even with his sharpened teeth dragging against her lips, and Fallacy barely felt an impish crow perch on his shoulder and caw. The two only broke apart at the sight of the sky opening up, or rather the clouds changing. They morphed and twisted, as if even they could not quite figure out the form they required. They distorted until they finally formed a beautiful, and somehow familiar, face. "Lady Clandestine," Fallacy breathed, immediately kneeling. She was pale, with lavender eyes and deep black hair, and while she was not the Land's image of beauty, she was more than that. Hello, young prince, the goddess crooned. You have discovered yourself, young man. That's quite a feat to be proud of. "Th-thank you," he uttered. I believe you understand true goodness, Fallacy Lewis Peccance. The face in the clouds curled up into a

    All young girls dream of being royalty. Kindergarten fantasies consist of glitter, tiaras, and undoubtedly a handsome prince. “Cinderella and Princess Culture” written by Peggy Orenstein and “The Princess Paradox” written by James Poniewozik are two articles that compare fairytale life to the real world, analyzing the purpose of princesses in today’s society. While both authors use feministic points of view to convey how being exposed to princesses impacts a child’s future, Peggy Orenstein believes marketing strategies and princess trends set unrealistic goals for young girls and James Poniewozik believes modern princesses teach girls how to control their own destiny.…
