You may have noticed with fairytales that we never hear about what happened in the happily ever after bit and of course this is probably because living happily after is very boring and doesn't make a good story at all. A good story has to have lots of stuff go wrong so that it can be made right again or at least better than it was before. And in fact when you think about it, living happily ever after is very unlikely because life is just not like that and bad things (and good things) continue to happen to everyone and then eventually life ends and that's the true end of the story at least for that person.
