"Gold-Tree and Silver-Tree" is a Scottish Fairy Tale collected by Joseph Jacobs. The story is a variation on Snow White.Gold-Tree is the beautiful daughter of an unnamed king and his wife, Silver-Tree. One fateful day, Silver-Tree meets a magical fish, who tells her that Gold-Tree is lovelier than she is. Offended, the queen vows to kill Gold-Tree. One day, she lies to her husband, claiming to be very ill, and that the only cure is if she eats Gold-Tree's liver and heart. Fortunately, the prince from a faraway land recently proposed to Gold-Tree, and so the king sends them off to his country, tricking the queen with the heart and liver of an animal.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })One year later, Silver-Tree consults the fish again, who informs her that Gold-Tree is still alive in her new husband's country, and so the queen persuades the king to let her visit her daughter. Upon learning that her mother is visiting, Gold-Tree's servants lock her away for her own safety. However, the queen manages to sneak a poisoned thorn through the keyhole and into Gold-Tree's finger.When the prince comes back, he's horrified to see his wife dead, but she is too lovely for him to bury. So Gold-Tree's body remains in that room. Time goes on and he marries a new woman, but warns her not to enter that particular room. Her curiosity eventually gets the better of her and she discovers Gold-Tree, as well as the thorn in her finger. The new bride removes it, bringing Gold-Tree back to life.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })One year later, Silver-Tree learns about this from the fish and sets out to kill Gold-Tree again, but this time, Gold-Tree, her husband, and her husband's wife are prepared. When Silver-Tree offers her daughter a poisoned drink, the second wife tells Silver-Tree to take the first sip, claiming it to be their land's custom. As the queen raises the cup to her lips, the second wife forces Silver-Tree to actually swallow the potion. Silver-Tree is killed, and Gold-Tree, her husband, and her husband's wife live Happily Ever After.It can be read in the SurLaLune site and the Project Gutenberg. | |

Good Is Not Soft | |
| Gold-Tree and Silver-Tree / int_21f60711 | comment |
Good Is Not Soft: The second wife murders Silver-Tree when she targets Gold-Tree a third time. From there, the tale just laconically describes Silver-Tree's burial, and the heroes head forth into their Happily Ever After. | |

Parental Neglect | |
| Gold-Tree and Silver-Tree / int_a54534a0 | comment |
Parental Neglect: Zig-zagged. On the one hand, the king sends Gold-Tree away for her safety when Silver-Tree first requests for the princess' internal organs. However, he later has no problem with letting the queen travel to visit Gold-Tree twice. | |

Don't Touch It, You Idiot! | |
| Gold-Tree and Silver-Tree / int_ab17e948 | comment |
Don't Touch It, You Idiot!: Gold-Tree is more Genre Savvy than most princesses in these stories, locking herself in her room when Silver-Tree visits. Still, her mother persuades her to extend her finger through the keyhole on the pretense that she wants to kiss it, but in fact is just looking for an opening to use the poisoned thorn. | |
