The entertaining story of King Brondé, his Lily and his Rosebud
A royal household centers on a pale queen who seeks a fairy's blessing for her newborn; the elder sisters receive gifts and the youngest is granted a special boon. The narrative follows multiple linked episodes—encounters with fairies, rescues and escapes, visits to a cave and the sea-shore, scenes in a flower garden, and the lives of wood-cutters' children—that test loyalty and identity. Transformations, a mysterious white lamb, journeys, and reconciliations lead to discoveries about heritage and destiny, concluding with the establishment of new rulers.
