Once upon a time, long, long time ago a king and qeen ruled over distant land. The queen was kind and lovely and all the peope of the realm adored her. The only sadness in the queen´s life was that she wished for a child but did not have one.

One winter day, the queen was doing needle work while gazing out her ebony window at the new fallen snow. A bird flew by the window startling the queen and she pricked her finger. A single drop of blood fell on the snow outside her window. As she looked at the blood on the snow she said to herself:Oh, how I wish that I had a daughter that had skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood and hair as black as ebony."
