Dunno how Chrom feels about this though...

Original Fairy Tale Name: The Canary Prince

Original Writer/Collector: ???

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Night who lived with her stepmother Ashera and father Malledus, who were the king and queen of Beginion. Ashera, however, hated Night, so she convinced her husband to lock Night into an abandoned castle. Satisfied, she didn't give Night another thought.

After a year or so, a prince by the name of Chrom was hunting bears in the forest when he stopped by Night's castle. He normally used this castle when he traveled through the woods, so it was quite natural that he flipped out upon seeing the castle being used.

"What in the blazes...?" He muttered to himself.

He approached the door and knocked. No response. Angered, he tried again.

"Damn," he mutters. He sighs and goes to leave, but notices a light in the tower. He runs over there and waves, trying to see if he could talk to its occupant.

Night was looking out her window when she noticed Chrom run up. She leans out the window to talk to him, but her stepmother had casted a spell to prevent Night from talking to anyone outside the castle. Because of this, Night and Chrom were reduced to making hand gestures to each other.

A witch by the name of Anna noticed this. She approached Night one day with a book in her hands and handed it to her.

"What's this?" Night asked, puzzled.

Anna smiled. "It's a magic spell book. I think you'll like it."

Around this time Chrom came back to say hi to Night, and Night quickly waved to him.

"Turn the pages towards the back," Anna commanded.

Night flipped the pages towards the end. "Um...."

"Wait a second," Anna replied.

Soon, a blue canary flew into the room. Night smiled at it, but Anna tapped her shoulder.

"Turn the pages backwards," she urged.

Night did so, and the canary fell to the floor, turning back into Prince Chrom.

"I enchanted this book so that you can- Night stop tormenting him."

Night had been busy turning Chrom into a canary and back again, laughing at his confused expression. Anna snatched the book away from Night and held it out of the princess's reach.

"Okay, that's enough for now. I thought that you wanted to talk to him," Anna reprimanded.

Night pouted but turned to Chrom, where they introduced themselves and instantly struck up a conversation. Anna smiled and walked away, as her work was done.

And so Night and Chrom slowly fell in love.

However, Ashera soon found out that Night had fallen in love, and rage boiled within her. When Night was away from her room, Ashera had spikes installed in the windowsill, laughing as it happened.
