Rapunzel and Prince Sketch

Story by the Brothers Grimm

Once upon a time, there was a girl with a very long hair. Her name was Rapunzel. Her father stole some Rapunzel (radish like plant) from a witch's garden for his wife who was pregnant and was craving for it.
Rapunzel was kept in a magical tower with no door or stairs. The only way up was using her long hair. The witch would cast a spell "Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair, so that I may climb the golden stair".
One day a prince heard her singing, saw her and decided to court her. The prince learnt how to use Rapunzel's hair from observing the witch. When the witch left he proceeded to let down her hair, climb up and made her acquaintance. He also proposed to her and she agreed.
However, the witch found out about the prince and angrily cut off Rapunzel's hair and cast her into the wilderness. The prince came back that night and he climbed her severed braids only to find the angry witch at the top. The witch told him he'll never see her again upon which he lept from the tower and fell, blinding him.
He wandered the woods for months. One day as Rapunzel fetched water he heard her singing. He followed her voice and they were reunited. His blindness was cured by her tears.
He brought her to his kingdom where they lived happily ever after.

My version of the ending..
The witch cut off her braids and turned her into a snail.. The prince was also turned into a frog. But they still lived happily ever after in the woods :D
~fin~

Hahaha.. actually these two sketches are of my friend I call 'LS' short for Lil Sis. She asked me to draw these so..
