RE: Folk Tales from Gascony: Étienne the Clever.

in #story10 months ago

Etienne The Clever was indeed a clever boy just as his name. The king after making a promise to the people that anyone who guesses the name of the animal skin that covers the chest will get his daughter's hand in marriage. When Etienne the clever was able to guess the animal skin that the chest was covered with the king refused to hand his daughter's hand in marriage. Etienne the clever was lucky enough with the men he picked on his way to the King's castle. They help him when the king was planning to play tricks on him.
Hmmm, People and not keeping to their words, well all thanks to Etienne's friends they really helped him.
