Once upon a time... Well, this IS a story.
So, once upon a time there was an unusual fairy.
Normal fairies never leave their wands behind.
But this fairy was so careless that she left her wand...
...with her best friend, who promised to take good care of it.
The fairy, unfortunately, had an arch-enemy called Black Troll.
The troll once proposed to the fairy, but she said no.
He then took an oath to take revenge.
He promised to ruin the small kingdom protected by the fairy.
As I said, the fairy had left her wand with her friend.
One morning she went to town to take part in a christening.
She flew over the magical streams in her kingdom.
The capital was as small as a little village.
Most were still asleep when mailman Gustaf went to work.
His cantankerous wife told him not to waste time.
Gustaf answered that he never wasted time!
It was against his principles. And off he went.
Well, he needs to stop and say hello to the barber Foxy.
And also have a refreshing glass of wine in the tavern.
They talked about the big party and the market...
...and about the carnival people that would arrive soon.
That same morning, inventor Franz decided to try his new...
invention, so it was important to wake up in time.
And, as he could only invent when he dreamt...
...he invented an alarm made out of water.
He called it the alarm shower.
It can be bought at your local watchmaker.
Gustaf drank his wine and wanted another one...
...but he was a bit scared of his wife, so he left.
All the while, the village had woken up.
All letters were delivered.
And they said that a relative would arrive by train...
...at 11:30 to join the party.
Mr Julius' trade was to post proclamations and news.
He was wide awake, reading an old paper.
His wife opened the shutters and ***!
The sun streamed in and awoke his family.
Oh dear! People said that the Juliuses had too many kids.
And that wasn't nice to hear.
Mrs Julius really tried to give her kids the best upbringing possible.
Each child had received a careful schedule.
"There is a right and a wrong way of doing things."
Mr Franz contributed with his knowledge.
"With more children, the more you have to give"...
...the couple said with a sigh.
Gustaf glanced at Lindqvist, the local carpenter.
He looked worried.
He was making an ironing board, which he was going to...
...give to the beautiful seamstress Lucidor.
He loved her with all his heart.
Gustaf realized that his presence and the letter...
...couldn't get Lindqvist's attention, so he left.
Maestro Ericson was a cool cat.
He was the fairy's music professor.
He was teaching the young student Charlie...
...so the mail man just left him the letter.
The letter was from his cousin, the poet Per.
He announced his arrival to the village.
Per was walking in the woods towards the train station.
Time really flies when you feel good.
He knew that, but he didn't care.
Because he was a true poet, who loved nature.
A waterfall tempted him to cool off in the heat.
Nature's wonder made him forget about the train.
The train never waits for one man.
Today the train went a bit faster than usual.
It was packed with festive people on their way to the party.
And the driver was in a hurry to meet Katja...
...the seamstress Lucidor's pupil.
The compartments were packed!
The young men and women gazed outside the window.
And their eyes twinkled with impatience.
The poet Per suddenly heard the train.
It roared and almost howled at him...
...as if it was his fault that it was late.
"Hurry Per! Hurry Per!"
Per realized that he was lost.
But then he saw a sign that showed the direction.
A train either runs or stops...
Per wasn't on the platform when the train stopped.
Per chased the train like a mad man.
It was like chasing a dream.
And his dream was leaving him!
Per increased his speed. He must reach the train!
Luckily August the scout passed the tracks...
...and the train pulled to a stop.
"Jump aboard", said the engine driver.
"In a minute", said August the scout.
While they talked, Per got on board.
People who ride trains can do lots of stuff.
Read, play, think or eat, but the most important is...
...to get a seat and defend it at any cost!
But wait...
The Black Troll had diabolic TV equipment.
He could see everything in the fairy's kingdom.
He saw the train in the woods, heading towards the village.
He also looked at the village, where Gustaf was meeting Lucidor.
Lucidor was getting her beauty sleep.
A bumble bee danced around and awoke her.
She got up and opened the window...
...and heard another kind of music.
It wasn't the usual music.
The song teacher was her closest neighbor.
Sometimes it doesn't sound very beautiful...
...but today it sounded wonderful!
Today was so extraordinary, that the kids forgot their home work.
At recess labor turns to amusement.
And the amusement as just begun.
Maestro Pretentious, a famous painter,
was painting a portrait of Mrs Anderson.
Julius drove is crane, created by Franz the inventor.
He was busy posting posters about the party.
It was as good as it could get.
And the carnival people were slowly arriving.
But something was wrong.
The Black Troll was observant in his dungeon.
And he saw the caravans on his monitor.
"Ah, I have an idea!", he muttered insidiously.
"Hocus Pocus!"
Which meant "Hocus Pocus, lets begin!"
The Black Troll left his secret dungeon...
...and mingled with the carnival people, disguised as a baker.
That's when the misery started.
Fred the photographer was late because...
...he constantly needed to take beautiful pictures.
The train had finally arrived at the village.
Per looked outside his window and saw a poster of Barbara.
She was the star of the puppet theatre.
Per fell in love.
And beyond all wonders...
...the image on the poster winked at him!
"Impossible, I'm dreaming", Per thought.
But he threw her a flower, which she easily caught.
"There's no doubt, she encourages me!", Per thought.
Per was shaken when he went to visit his cousin Ericson.
Maestro Ericson was teaching his pupil Charlie.
They played the song of the fairy. A top secret song...
...that held the key to the box with the fairys wand.
Per was delighted, but as he couldn't stop thinking about...
...Barbara, he wanted to freshen up after his trip.
The train was already entering the village.
Per went out and mingled with the people.
There was a lot to look at.
Everything from the big balloon to the dare devils.
But Per had only one thing on his mind.
Barbara. Barbara. In person.
Fred came last but came with such speed...
...that he almost ran over everybody.
"Everybody" is an exaggeration. The beautiful people...
...were still at the barber, getting more beautiful.
"Oh no, ladies. It's not enough to suffer..."
"...to be beautiful. You have to die for it!"
"You will be beautiful. Just wait and see."
"Just a little patience. So, so. That's it!"
While this was happening, Lucidor's pupil Katja...
...boiled with anger.
Her fiance waited anxiously. But before she could leave...
...she had to finish a blouse for Mrs Anderson.
And Mrs Anderson tried on hat after hat...
in front of Lucidor, who was ready to kill her.
A couple of guys played pool, while they waited for the party.
Julie's oldest son was very good, but today was not his day.
Per was still crazy in love and went to...
...Ida and Irma, experts on love and relationship.
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Tonight, tonight."
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Oh, I see a blonde."
"A blonde!"
"There is no doubt. It's Barbara"
Barbara had given him a smile. It wasn't just a game.
Oh, no. The elusive smile was also a promise.
She stood by the window and smiled at Per.
But the Black Troll, the demon, looked at her with evil eyes.
He hated love as much as he hated the fairy.
The Black Troll pretended to be a baker.
And he had conjure forth lots of treats.
But he didn't care about business.
He wanted to lure Charlie, who couldn't say no to treats.
But Charlie wasn't there.
People gathered around Fred.
Mrs Anderson, who was known to exaggerate,...
...stated that she say a bird flew out of the camera.
Just as he took the picture.
"Nosy Parker!"
As Charlie didn't show up at the baker's booth...
...the Black Troll went out looking for him.
The shooting range? Charlie wasn't there.
And not at the tombola wheel. He was gone.
He didn't even show up to watch the dare devils.
Barbara performed her show in the little puppet theatre.
After the show, Per came to congratulate his star.
He was filled with delight.
And then they went to watch the fire works.
Finally the evil wizard found young Charlie.
Look how cunning he was to lure Charlie to his booth.
Who can say no to a lollipop?
There were pyramids of candied fruit and mountains of...
sugar candy on the shining and rotating counter.
But when Charlie reached out to take a praline...
...a cover dropped and covered the sweets.
And there was a piano.
"Play the tune you have learned.", said the Black Troll.
"Play the song of the fairy and I'll give you all the treats."
"But you have to play first" "Play!"
"Play!" "Come on and play!"
"Play the song of the fairy."
It can't be dangerous, Charlie thought.
The wand is here and, the baker will leave tomorrow.
If he plays the tune, it will be in another country.
That's what happens when you forget to keep a promise!
As the party continued, Per celebrated his...
...engagement with Barbara. Charlie sat at the piano...
And just like that, the secret was in the open.
Charlie was tied down so he wouldn't move.
The Black Troll hurried to Maestro Ericson...
...who left his door unlocked, as he didn't expect a thief.
When the Black Troll took the magical wand...
...luck turned to misery and sorrow.
Come dawn, the village looked deserted.
Maestro Ericson took care of Barbara.
The poor girl had turn to stone.
Per cried by her side.
Per went to seek the advice from an astrologer.
The astrologer said, "In order to restore happiness..."
"...you must defeat wind, earth, fire and water."
"You must also free an innocent creature from the dark forces."
"The Black Troll has got the fairy's wand."
The Black Troll let out an evil laugh in his dungeon.
Ha ha ha!
Nobody can take away his magical wand.
On his monitor he saw the big balloon lift up into the sky.
Per and Maestro Ericson were sitting in the basket.
"Hocus Pocus", said the Black Troll.
He had super demonic thingumajigs.
He pulled a secret lever... ...and swish!
A secret hatch opened up.
Out of the hatch came a remote controlled rocket.
"Fantastic. Ha ha ha!" "A direct hit!"
He was so pleased that he didn't see the 2 parachutes.
When they awoke from the fall, they thought they were doomed.
They landed in a dreadful place.
They landed by a monster, who was the troll's faithful servant.
Per thought that it was best to get cracking.
The monster sat on his throne and enjoyed...
...the thought of eating poor Charlie.
"He's a real snack, perfect for a monster."
But Per, who came to be known as Per the Brave...
...didn't hesitate a second.
He jumped the monster.
The cloth covered the monster, and Per freed Charlie.
Charlie had learned a lot during his time in the prison.
At the gate they found the monster's vehicle...
...which was half mole, and half fish.
Poor them. The journey was troublesome...
...among whirling water streams until they reached surface.
The place they arrived at was inhospitable.
A giant spider lived here!
Behind impenetrable sticky web stood the innocent...
...little creature that Per promised to free.
The giant spider didn't have time to say any famous last words.
They say that love has wings.
Love can therefore take you anywhere.
Carried by wings of love, they came to the kingdom of the doves.
The doves were daughters of the good fairy.
The moon shined above. The night was peculiar.
Take a bath and you'll become invulnerable, said the doves.
Then we will show you which road to take.
Our three friends were very tired.
But did as they were told.
"The dark forces can't hurt you anymore", said the doves.
In the morning they went to the Black Troll's mountain.
Ericsson decided to stay behind.
Per and Charlie went directly into the dungeon.
The Black Troll was waiting.
"Ha ha ha!" "My little friends!"
"So here you are." "I will turn you into stone!"
But? What's going on?
Why didn't they turn to stone?
"It doesn't seem to work."
"I will try it on a bird."
"But it should work..."
"It's peculiar that I can't turn them into stone."
"Let's see. Don't get nervous"
"Turn to stone!" "Turn to STONE!"
The troll was so angry that he waved the wand...
...carelessly and...swish! He himself turned to stone.
At that moment, the fog that covered the village...
...dissolved and arose to the sky.
The wand was returned and placed in its box.
Per saw the beautiful Barbara come alive.
The flowers blossomed everywhere.
Everything was reborn!
At the end of this story...
...our unusual fairy turned to a normal fairy.
And she never left her wand behind.
Not even to a reliable friend!
