Plot
There was a great procession on the day of Prince Dolor baptism. Her rich nurse was playing with her skirt hugging the prince in her arms, and she dropped him damaging his spine (probably). But she didn't tell anyone about it. The fairy godmother appears to the nurse and reveals that she knows what happened. The crown prince (empress) dies. The prince's legs never get stronger. I can't walk, he can only crawl with his arms. The king also died. The regents settle in the castle (with many children) and the prince's uncle reigns over the kingdom. Things are going well across the country, but Prince Dolor is being ignored. The new king hunts Dolor and tells everyone he is dead.
Dolor was sent to live in a lonely tower in the middle of a vacant lot. The tower has no doors. The height is 100 feet. But it has a lot of books, toys and maps. His only companion is his nanny. And the deaf, deaf black knight brought them food and belongings. The nurse is also a "prisoner". They use a ladder to climb the tower. The Dark Knight comes once a month. The prince liked to shut up and look out the window of a deserted plain. Do your homework and homework. He loves books. He knew the existence of the Kingdom of Norman's Land. But he finds it sad to read without looking at things. I want it if I can only fly. And he wants a nice person from him. He's all alone
An old gray woman appeared. He said I was his godmother. Dolor asked, "Would you like to bring a boy?" She said no. But give him a gift: a travel cape. She disappeared when she entered the room to see who the nurse was talking to. The coat looks like a coat. He didn't know the magical power he had.
One day he got sick and a fairy godmother visited him. He asked him why he couldn't walk. He told him he would never work. He is sad. Where is your dress? He's got it in the closet. She teaches him to use it with magic words and invites him to open the skylight.
When he spoke the word miracle, he grew. At first he forgot the word ignore it. And he forgot to open the skylight. He felt good when he finally flew around the tower. But he only saw dull planes, stars and satellites. It's very cold. But he forgot the magic word that brought him home. The cloak carried her further and further out of the tower. I'm scared. He begs his godmother to please, remind him of the magic words to bring him home. And he heard voices talking to him. When he gets home, he puts the cloak away, which will shrink and roll up. The nurse didn't know he was gone, but she was mad at him for opening the skylight. Freeze here!
When Prince Dolor went to bed that night, I was looking forward to flying again the next day. The next day he did his homework and homework quickly and put his coat back on. He saw all kinds of flowers, trees and grass, birds and small animals moving away from him. He wanted to see better, so his godmother sent him the glasses.
The next day he was playing with toys, thinking about toy horses and longing for a real horse. When he went out that night, he took food, water, and a coat and flew a long way. He fell asleep during the flight. He was no longer in the desert when he woke up. He is in his hometown. He sees rivers, hills, animals, trees and even waterfalls. He wished he could hear things better, and his godmother sent him silver ears to match him. He wondered if he could meet everyone. She wants to have children and plays very badly. His flying cloak fell and he approached and saw a young boy running in the field with his horse. While watching, the little prince cried because he knew he could never run this way. Then Nightingale jumped to his knees, and was happy again because it was strange and wonderful.
He wonders about his mother and father. He wondered what had happened to them. Nightingale was with him and lived right in front of his skylight. When he saw the boy running, he was sad and decided he didn't want to fly anymore. A few months later, he wondered if he would become king as the prince had planned. Her nurse wrote on a piece of paper, “You are the king,” and ended up writing her whole story. He was afraid to speak in case he heard the spy who broke the rule not to tell him.
That night he used a cloak. And he asked me to indicate "what I have to see", not what he wanted to see. The flying cape takes him to the big city of Normandy. A magpie walks past him and speaks to him in a strange and friendly voice. The magpie showed him the palace (the largest building he had ever seen), showed him the deceased King Regent, his uncle, and lay there like a wax figure. The bird shows him that the city is beginning to rebel. A revolution is underway. He was watching a terrible fight on the street. He didn't want to see it anymore, so he went home and slept in the tower. When he woke up, he noticed that his nurse had noticed his nurse.
