The Story of the Girl and the Wolf

Once upon a time, a girl entered a terrible and vast forest. She went there of her own will, wearing a red cloak that allowed the forest dwellers to track her movements from afar. And indeed, one day a large wolf saw her. You might think you already know how this story continues: deception, violence, revenge. The purpose of that tale was to warn children against venturing into the forest, seeking adventures, or trusting wolves. But one day, two strong hearts found enough strength within themselves to change the story. The wolf refused to harm the girl or betray her, and she did not come to hate and fear the wolf. Without taming him, she loved him for his wild nature. In the forest she found her sanctuary and grew old, with the magical wolf always accompanying her.
