The Princess and the Magic Mirror
The Princess and the Magic Mirror
Once upon a time, in a faraway kingdom, there lived a beautiful princess named Lily. She lived in a grand castle with her parents, the king and queen, and her two older brothers. Lily was a kind and caring princess, loved by all in the kingdom. One day, while exploring the castle, Lily stumbled upon a hidden room. Inside, she found a magnificent mirror with a golden frame. As she approached the mirror, she noticed that it was glowing with a soft, magical light. "Hello, Princess Lily," a voice echoed from the mirror. "I am the Magic Mirror, and I have been waiting for you." Lily was amazed and a little scared. She had never seen a talking mirror before. "What do you want from me?" she asked, trying to sound brave. "I am here to grant you three wishes," the Magic Mirror replied. "But be warned, you must use them wisely." Lily's eyes widened with excitement. She had always dreamed of having magical powers. "I wish for a beautiful dress," she said, imagining herself in a sparkly gown. The Magic Mirror waved its hand, and in an instant, Lily was wearing the most beautiful dress she had ever seen. It was made of shimmering blue fabric and adorned with sparkling jewels. "Wow!" Lily exclaimed, twirling around in her new dress. "Thank you, Magic Mirror!" "You have two wishes left," the Magic Mirror reminded her. Lily thought carefully about her next wish. She didn't want to waste it on something silly. Finally, she decided, "I wish for a feast fit for a princess!" Once again, the Magic Mirror waved its hand, and a table filled with delicious food appeared before Lily. There were roasted chickens, fresh fruits, and all kinds of sweet treats. Lily and the Magic Mirror enjoyed the feast together, laughing and chatting like old friends. As the feast came to an end, Lily realized that she only had one wish left. She wanted to make it count. "I wish for everyone in the kingdom to be happy and healthy," she said with a smile. The Magic Mirror's face lit up with joy. "Your wish is my command, Princess Lily," it said. And just like that, the kingdom was filled with happiness and good health. The people rejoiced, and Lily was hailed as the kindest princess in all the land. From that day on, Lily visited the Magic Mirror every day,
