Description
In this Norwegian fairy tale, the queen makes a mistake.
That's not the whole story.
There's also a dragon. And an opportunity to reflect on our fallibility, the tendency to blame, our story inheritance, and the empathy we might develop through imaginative engagement with what angers and disturbs us.
I hope you enjoyed the story.
