Description
Once upon a time there was a king and a queen who could not have children. And by a bad spell, God granted them a little chick as an heir. But a few months later, this chick became a young rooster and demanded a wife!
Several young girls attracted by the royal reward came forward. It was only when one of them showed a real interest in the rooster that the marriage could take place. In the bridal chamber, the miracle happened and a splendid prince appeared under the feathered cloak. But in telling the adventure to her mother, the young woman broke the oath she had made to her husband and he had to flee. The princess's quest to find her husband was long and full of trials. Finally she succeeded in joining her beloved and delivering him forever from the fate that had overwhelmed him since birth. On their return to the royal palace, they were acclaimed by all their future subjects. Their wedding was celebrated once again and they had many children.
