Theresa | 16068 comments Once upon a time in a kingdom far, far away ... there was a very average princess who set out from the convent where she was preserved to rescue her trapped sister from an evil king and protect her kingdom. However, because this princess believed she was not a hero, she sought helpers - a dust-wife with a grumpy hen, an exiled knight, a goofy bone dog, and, of course, a fairy godmother. Wearing a nettle cloak, this very average princess heroically set off with her motley crew on her Fool's Errand of a rescue mission.

This was a delightful, funny, fairytale filled with classic elements all woven into its own unique story about good triumphing over evil and proving that even very ordinary younger princesses can save the world.
