Rumpelstiltskin

✨👑 The Tale of Rumpelstiltskin 🧵✨
A miller boasted to a greedy king that his clever daughter could spin straw into gold. The king, eager for riches, locked the girl in a room filled with straw and demanded she turn it into gold or face death. Desperate, the girl was aided by a mysterious little man who spun the straw into gold in exchange for her necklace. The next night, the king demanded more gold, and the girl traded her ring for the little man’s help. On the third night, the king promised to marry her if she completed an even larger task. With nothing left to give, she agreed to give the little man her firstborn child in exchange for his help. 🧵✨💰
The king kept his promise, and the miller’s daughter became queen. When her child was born, the little man returned to claim his prize, but the queen begged to keep her baby. He agreed to spare the child if she could guess his name within three days. The queen tried every name she could think of, but none were correct. On the third day, a messenger overheard the little man singing and discovered his name: Rumpelstiltskin. 🎶🍼
When the little man returned, the queen slyly guessed his name. Enraged, Rumpelstiltskin stomped his foot so hard that it got stuck in the floor. He pulled himself free and fled, never to be seen again. The queen kept her child, and the court laughed at the little man’s defeat. The family lived happily ever after, free from his trickery. 👶👑✨
