Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess as in fairy tales. She had black hair, blood-red lips, and fine white skin. Her name was Emma. She had a very bad father with whom she was arguing every day.
Her mother was very ill, she was dying.
One day, on the way to the stall, Emma met a goblin and he told her:
- I heard your mother is dying, I can help you with a cure for the disease.
- Of course! I would do anything just tell me what to do!
The goblin gives her a dry, colorless rose with only 3 petals left. The creature tells her what to do:
“After you get home, put the rose in a vase full of water and place it in your mother's room. You have to take care of the plant for four days and four nights, and when the rose shines at midnight, the petals will grow and the rose will come back to life. But don't forget to do that and your mother will heal. Follow my instructions!” He said gently.


She ran straight home, put the rose in water, and looked at it until she fell asleep.
The four days passed very hard but finally came the fourth.
The little girl was excited and counted every moment until the long-awaited moment came.
The rose blossomed as if by magic, a dazzling light came out of the little rose.
-Oh my God... I didn’t expect that! Emma said excitedly.



Immediately her mother felt better. They hugged each other in joy and happiness. A fairy came out of the dazzling light and said to Emma: “Your mother is healed but the goblin sacrificed his life for her and now he is dying.
A long time ago she helped him to escape from a monster, so he wanted to pay her back. Now you can save his life if you face three challenges.
The first challenge is about kindness, the second is about altruism, and the third one is about courage. For the first challenge, you have to look for a flower hidden in the magic forest. This flower has got magic pollen, which will help you pass the second challenge. That is the bees' favourite flower. I will come back when you complete the first challenge to tell you the next one.









Emma was desperate and sad: “How could I find a flower in such a huge forest?” Suddenly she heard some noise - her dad was hitting a beehive because he didn't want it near the house. She ran towards him and shouted: “Stop it! You're hurting them! Please, leave them alone!” At first, her dad didn't listen to Emma, but then, he got annoyed and went back home.
Emma couldn't believe what she saw - the bees were very grateful and they got together in the shape of an arrow, which led Emma straight into the forest and pointed to the right flower.
As Emma picked the flower, the fairy reappeared: “You made it! You were very kind to the bees, but now you have to pass the second challenge”.





I knew you would come. Here is the rose you are looking for.
You made me so happy.
“If you want to do the second challenge, you must reach the top of the mountain where you will find a witch. She is the only one who can give you what you need. You must find the red rose in this challenge,” she said.
Emma started to look for the mountain. She climbed it up and down and walked and walked. Finally, she found it and started climbing until she reached the top. Now she had to find the witch. It would be easy because there was only one house on the top of the mountain. She ran and ran and finally arrived at the house and knocked on the door. The witch opened the door. He said: ”I knew you would come.” She invited the girl inside and said: “You must give me two things. I want your most valuable possession. The second thing you have to give me is a souvenir from your mother.”
The girl answered: ”I would give you anything but just give me the right red rose!” The girl remembered her mother’s necklace and her grandmother’s ring. She gave both to the witch. The witch took these items and gave her the right red rose.



The girl returned happily to the fairy. The fairy said: ” Congratulations! You passed the second challenge, too. Now it’s time for the third, hardest challenge. For the third challenge, you must find a small chest in a big, haunted castle. To get to that castle, you must find the right exit from the maze.
She packed and started her journey.
She remembered that she saw the maze while she was climbing the mountain looking for the witch. When she finally made it to the maze, she was afraid of what she could find, but she entered bravely. She spent hours looking for a way out, but there was no luck. The moment she was thinking of giving up, she saw large prints on the floor. She followed them and found herself in front of the castle.
