Once upon a time there lived a poor servant couple Anastasia and Naveen in the kingdom of Complexia. They served King Rowan and Queen Willow night and day for 3 years straight so they could get land and get permission to start a family. Like the king and queen promised they gave them land and 3 months later Anastasia got pregnant. While they are not still serving the king and queen anymore they still had to go to the castle once a week to cook and clean for them for money to sustain a family.
7 months in the pregnancy Anastasia grew very ill. So she went to the woods and prayed to the gods to save her baby. Knowing the queen only allowed the women to get pregnant once and each family was allowed one baby. She cried and prayed wishing the gods will answer her, she was answered but it wasn't by a god it was by a coyote in a purple cape. The coyote spoke “cry no more my child your wish is my command” Anastasia responded “I’m not sure” He cuts her off and says “You know Rosemary?” “yes” replies Anastasia ”I help her with her baby” says the coyote, Anastasia remembers the situation and agrees to take whatever to coyote gave her. The coyote pulls out a cup full of tea she drank it but by the time she was done the coyote was gone. She walked home,and when she got there she went straight to bed and slept for 24 hours. Naveen had to stay over at the castle for a week this time so he had no clue what she has done.

The father misunderstood about his daughter's answer about loving him. He got angry and sent his princess because of his poor self-esteem. He was expecting his daughter to say "I love you very much" just like his other daughters but he misinterpret the different
Poverty and hardship are shown to create vulnerability in female characters, particularly the female servants, allowing powerful men to manipulate and sexually abuse them. Kent illustrates how poverty perpetuates maltreatment and abuse in a society like Burial Rites using the characters of Agnes’ mother Ingveldur and Agnes. Agnes’ mother is forced to make invidious choices as her children are “lugged along” from farm to farm, where she is sexually exploited by her employers. In spite of these circumstances, Agnes’ mother is commonly referred to as a whore in their society which abhors female promiscuity yet disregards male promiscuity as a harmless character trait; as in the case of Natan, who is merely “indiscreet” despite all his philandering. Born into poverty, Agnes experiences similar sexual coercion and manipulation from her “masters” and yet is labelled “a woman who is loose with her emotions and looser with her morals”. The severe poverty of Agnes is explicitly demonstrated to the reader by Kent through the intertextual reference of her entire belongings - a very dismal, piteous list to be “sold if a decent offer is presented”. Furthermore, Kent contrasts the situation of Agnes, a “landless workmaid raised on a porridge of moss and poverty”, to the comparative security Steina has experienced using a rhetorical question from

Once upon a time, in a time period of war and division, there lived a traveling businessman who was known for both his riches and his greed. The businessman had a daughter who was as beautiful as she was kind and that they called her Belle, a Southern Belle. Though her father loved her in his own way, his love for money was his ultimate love. But his riches could not last forever and the war between the north and south had taken a turn for the worst.

Both Penelope and Odysseus put others through trials in books 19, 21, and 23 in order to test their loyalty and identity. The trait of constantly testing others eludes to the little trust that Odysseus and Penelope have in others making them a perfect match for each other. In Book 19 Homer shows Odysseus in the presence Penelope describing to her how well she is known and why. He suggests that her fame “has reached the vaulting skies” and that the kingdom she has built is “proud and strong” and under her “sovereign way” her people “flourish” (19: 118-120, 124). All of these positive attributes Odysseus is mentioning serve the purpose of testing Penelope on if she is still loyal by acknowledging how these are all things Odysseus thinks he has
Once upon a time, there was a lost girl, and a lost boy. The lost girl faced many challenges, having been abandoned by her parents, leaving her on the side of a desolate road for her to die and only with a blanket with the name Emma etched on was covering the little baby girl. After someone had found her with the baby blanket covering her tiny baby body, she was stuck in a foster home close to a city until someone had adopted her.
Men dominate the household and women are treated cruelly and unappreciated. When Penelope tells her tale of how the suitors took over house, the men “ ‘are here to court me against my wish; and they consume this house… wasted with longing for Odysseus, while here they press marriage.’ ” (pg 27). Penelope, the queen
Nathaniel would ignore his daughter as she begged him not to force her into a loveless marriage. The king sent word three days after Emma's eighteenth birthday to the prince she would marry asking him to visit their kingdom. The prince accepted Nathaniel's request and immediately set off for the kingdom he believed one day would be his son. Two days after the prince set off on a cold winter's night Emma snuck out of the castle to experience one night of true freedom before she was to wed a man whose name she didn't even know. Emma stole a horse out of the royal stables as the stable boy slept and rode it out of the village surrounding the castle she called home since she was born. Emma traveled to a village thirty miles away from the castle praying no one there would recognize her. The princess came upon a little rinky dink tavern which smelt of the behind of a goat mixed with the sweat of weary travelers. The tavern looked like so poorly built that a simple gust could send its wall crashing to the ground. All its table and chairs wobbled something which normally didn't go well with a room full of drunk men and

Humbleness and hospitality do not only brings joy and calm to our hearts,but unbelievable rewards,too. By sharing even when you do not have enough with people who need it more, and have nothing is admirable. And this myth illustrates this the best by showing how an old couple receives two wayfarers in need..
The other two were conceived the same night with her husband. But these children came into the world because Zeus raped Leda, “a shudder in the loins engenders there” (9); which led to problems with Helen of Troy. Helen of Troy was kidnapped and happened to be the woman “whose beauty would bring about the outbreak of the Trojan War” (https://interestingliterature.com/2017/01/25/a-short-analysis-of-w-b-yeatss-leda-and-the-swan/#more-9841 ). Later on, the war led to the destruction of Troy and caused problems with Leda’s other daughter Clytemnestra. Clytemnestra kills her husband, Agamemnon: “for sacrificing their daughter in exchange for fair winds from the Gods” ( https://interestingliterature.com/2017/01/25/a-short-analysis-of-w-b-yeatss-leda-and-the-swan/#more-9841 ). After all, it is Leda’s fate to have become Helen and Clytemnestra’s mother. Leda being raped caused her children to be the reason of a King is dead and a destruction of a
