Here's an up-close rendition of the Grimm Brothers' fairy tale of The Golden Bird.
Follow the travels of a naive, charismatic, foolhardy young man who earns treasure, friendship, a princess, all while falling in love. BUT NOT WITH THE PRINCESS?
Well, no story is as simple as it seems. Ronin may have read the story of the Golden Bird in his past life but he was 6 years old at that time! How was he supposed to remember the details? All he knows is to listen to the talking fox , follow the gold (wow this world is obsessed with gold huh?), and go back home as soon as possible...maybe?
The story had a happy ending, right?! Now if only he could remember how the original protagonist did it, everything should be fine. Why couldn't he have been reincarnated into cinderella? or rapunzel? At least Disney made movies out of those!
Noor, a dancer in the Royal Court of the Al-Yauzhan Empire wants nothing more than to pay off her debts and lead a nice, simple life-but a chance encounter with the crown prince and his brother brings her into the dangerous world of court politics. As Noor and the princes investigate their uncle and cousin's possible treason, she grows closer to the crown prince, but in order to save the kingdom and the person she loves, Noor will have to risk everything...
A romantic adventure set in an imagined Arabic kingdom, THE DANCING GIRL is a story of court intrigues, romantic entanglements, and secret meetings as Noor and her best friend Amir try to help the princes they're falling for expose corrupt court officials with plans to seize the throne. Noor and Amir are close to having everything they've ever dreamed of...now all they need to do is survive.
