“Italian Stories. Princess Bear. This is the story of the beautiful kingdom of Belliot, where a king and queen lived. It was a great day. The queen had given birth to two princesses and had invited the fairies to celebrate. Welcome, dear fairies. It is a pleasure to have you all here. Let me introduce you to my beautiful girls. I have named the eldest Cleo and the youngest by a few seconds Berdin. Absolutely on high. Now wish and it shall be given to you. I wish that my eldest daughter be the most beautiful. Simam zim zim zim. Wish that the eldest be as beautiful as a shining flower. And the youngest will be so pretty and sharp even without ever resorting to make-up. May the youngest be sharp and have the face of a bear. Suddenly the young girl's face changed into that of a bear. Fairy Magotin, what have you done? I said without resorting to make-up, not with a bear's face. You are saying the same thing. I meant without making-up, without make-up. Ah, I am old-fashioned. The golden tongue is tricky. Please fix it, Fairymotin. Oh no, it's a birthmark. What? Your mistake has ruined my daughter's future. Ernore, did you say bear face? I won't even explain. This is just the beginning of Magotin's wild acts. Megotin left while the other fairies consoled the queen. Don't worry about your highness. Your daughter, like her name, will be brave and have a beautiful life regardless, I promise. Fortun sprinkled some fairy dust on the Bear girl and left. The other fairies followed her. A few years later, the twins grew up. Cleo was a lovely girl, while Berdin was a bear girl. Everyone made fun of her. Sometimes she was hurt, but most of the time she played along. Berdin was witty and smart, she loved reading books. I can't believe this kingdom has a bear princess. Me too. What are you gossiping about? I want to know too. Nothing about your highness. You know what my bear ears do? They can hear twice as well as you. We were talking about trees. No, that's not true. Run, it was fun. A few days later, Cleo's wedding came. She was marrying the most handsome prince and everyone attended the event. They were all happy until Berdin arrived. Then there was silence. Some muttered jokes and others left. Whoops. Berdin ran to her room. The king and queen came to her right after the wedding. The guilt I have had since that day will never leave me. I can't see her suffer like this. Again. This is not your fault. It's Megotin's wild actions. I'm so tired. Life in the kingdom is tiring. Please, dear, tell us what we can do. I want to go on vacation. I won't hear these sharp murmurs anywhere. Where would you like to go? Shells? Oh, dear, it's too far. How about going to the island nearby? Well, it might work, but don't escort me there. I want to live with my bear self. Berdin left the kingdom. The queen prepared some food and juices. She walked away. After a small hill she reached the coastline where she saw a boat prepared for her. This one is definitely dad's. Berdin sailed towards the island. It was wonderful to look around at that beautiful sea, until the clouds thundered and the rain fell heavily causing high tides. Berdin grabbed hold of the flagpole. Nature really doesn't want me to live in peace. The boat hit a rock and Berlin fell on it. Well, what a nice place for a vacation. Berdin looked around and saw nothing but the sea. The island was still far away from her. I'm in the middle of the sea where the sharks can get me. But hey, no one complains about me here. Oh dear! Oh, dear! I thought only we mermaids came here. Look what's here. Begrils without gills. I spoke too soon. Poor thing. Can you take me to that island instead of complaining? Okay, I'll take a nap. Berdin slept and when he woke up later he found something he couldn't believe. Wait a minute. Where am I? Berdin wasn't on the same rock, but on the island of the Pagodins. These little elves who lived there were made of precious stones and crystals. They were busy with their tasks. Lower the table, silly girl, stop screaming. Verdin turned to one of them. Hey, where am I? You're in the land of Paadin, princess. Oh, princess! All together. The princess woke up from her sleep. The Pagodins came together and carried Berdin away. They celebrated, gave her a luxurious room with endless books. She lived well and had a nice friendship with the Pagodins. Once the Pagodins talked about their king who was away on business. So he's handsome? Absolutely. So I have no chance. You certainly do. He doesn't even know me. If he does know you and thinks you're pretty. No way. Eventually Berdin met the King of Pagodin. She was surprised to see no one. So you are invisible? Alas, I was cursed by Megotin, just like you. I lived an invisible life and you are kind. I will gladly accept you just as you are. But my dear, I must warn you because if you see my visible form I will have to repeat my penance. I will never do that. So the two truly fell in love and prepared for marriage. Berdin sent the news to her family. Her mother, however, was rather skeptical about her decision, so she replied by saying: "I am worried, Berdin, you must know what he looks like. You say that his love is unconditional, but what happens if you marry a monster?" Berdin thought about it and finally followed her mother's advice. She installed a mirror in the house so that she could see him when he passed by. Well, that was the day it happened and Berdin shrieked in shock. Ah, the invisible king, he was none other than a green snake. After all the affection I have given you? No, just then the fairy Megotin arrived. Curiosity piqued the bear. Too bad. Your future husband will repeat his penance. He will remain in prison for 2 years. No, please, you should have thought twice. Don't worry about me, Berdin. Fairy Megotin captured the king, now a green snake, and locked him in prison. Now you put on those iron shoes and climb the purple mountain. This is your punishment. Oh! Good. So Berdin put on the iron shoes and began to climb the purple mountain which was not far away. However, the iron shoes weighed her down. My feet already hurt. What have I done? I have brought misfortune to this beautiful kingdom. Don't be discouraged. Who is there? I am the fairy Fortunia. I am the one who gave you happiness. M. Where is this happiness? It has already begun, child. Go to the top of the mountain and wash your face with the water from the fountain. It will be exciting because you will be happy forever. Why? No questions asked, go ahead and do it. So Berdin bravely climbed the hill thanks to the fairy fortune. He found the fountain. Oh! Wow! The water in the fountain is amazing. I'll cool off here. Verdin washed his face and when he looked at his reflection he had a human face. Oh my gosh, I can't believe it. Am I like this? Well, yes. But there's a clause. You have to stay here for 2 years and live a life without flaws. But what will become of the king? Keep him in your heart. True love will make bad luck disappear. M Okay. Berdin stayed on top of the hill for 2 years. She always thought about her husband and wished him the best. I hope he's doing well. Suddenly a bright light came out of the tree and Mr. Valentine arrived. Wow! And who are you? I felt love in the air, so I had to go down and see for myself. I am Mr. Valentine and you are Berdin, who is not a bear. Oh, you know me? Now your dear husband will no longer be a snake. Really? How? Like that. And with a snap of his fingers Valentine teleported with Berlin to the land of pagodas. Wow! Your love is in prison. Regio meant. I love you. What's this chaos? Hello, Scurvy. Shut up, get out of my sight before I lock you up. Valentine. Why are you falling in love? Oh no! So what's the matter? Let's free the king. Mr. Valentine opened the prison and the recc immediately. No, how did you open it? Because love is stronger than anything, my darling. My dear, how have you been? And poof, the king transformed from a green snake to a handsome prince. My God, Verdin, what happened to your face? Unrecognizable. It's time for you to go to prison. Oh, how would you like that? Fortune told me you could reverse the spell, but you didn't. You wanted to see me suffer. Well, that's fun. It's time to stop playing games, Megotin. Mr. Valentine shrunk the Megotin and put her in a bottle. Stop, let me out. I can't hear you. I'll never hurt anyone again. Wow, apology, accepted. But I'll keep you in my pocket for a while longer. Thus ended Berdin's vacation. The kings and Berdin celebrated a grand wedding and the Pagodins applauded. I'm so sorry for breaking my promise. Everything went well. Berdin returned to the kingdom with the king and they couldn't believe their eyes. Her Highness is gorgeous as always. You didn't like me with my bear face, so you don't deserve me now. Everyone laughed. and Queen Berdin returned to their land of Pagod and lived happily ever after.”— Italian Fairy TalesWatch clip
