Beast and Princess

Surrounded by a verdant forest is the Veke Kingdom where many people and animals live peacefully. In the beautiful Rozum Castle that everyone sings praises of rules the kind king and queen that protect all their subjects. However there is a princess there that was born from a concubine of the kings that died in childbirth. That princess was locked up in a tower of the castle and rarely allowed to go outside. Why was she treated like that? The castle soldiers all talked of various rumors, but nobody knew the real truth. Aa, what an pitiful princess. But even when she couldn't leave the tower the princess wasn't lonely at all. She loved spinning thread and sewing clothing, and spending time with her pet animals. But one day the king's younger brother showed up in front of the princess and handed her a short sword. "The king and queen are dead, now you too shall thrust this sword into your chest and meet death." he said. Trembling, the princess took the short sword and made to comply with the orders. But then the animals that loved their princess very much attacked all at once to save her. They escaped deep into the forest. The only thing the princess managed to take with her was a small bag that was a memento of her mother that had an interesting book inside. "If you ever get into a seriously bad situation, hold this close to you." The princess remembered those words that her father had told her when handing over the memento and timidly looked inside the book. Suddenly it seemed to sparkle like a beautiful jewel and she received a mysterious seven colored powder!
