Helper: Yes, of course! today is your birthday and you are eighteen!

 

Snow white: Yes, eighteen.

Helper: You know my wish for your birthday?

Snow white: You can’t make a wish for me…

Helper: One day you are going to get your kingdom back and you are going to be the Queen. This is for you my princess.

Snow white: For me?

Helper: Is your father’s knife... the kings’ dagger..

Snow white: What can I do with this?

Helper: You must see with your own eyes what goes on in your kingdom.

Snow white: What’s happening?

Helper: (looking and pointing out to the public) Everybody is sad, really sad. They never have parties, they never smile. They need your help, they need to see who you really are, and you need to believe…
