| Graciosa And Percinet | comment |
"Graciosa and Percinet" (French: "Gracieuse et Percinet") is a French Fairy Tale by Madame d'Aulnoy. Andrew Lang included an English translation of the story in The Red Fairy Book.Once upon a time, there is lovely princess named Graciosa, and a hideous duchess named Grognon who is jealous of the princess. When the princess's mother dies, her father goes out hunting and finds Grognon's castle, where she shows him all of her riches, inducing him to marry her. Graciosa, knowing the duchess loathes her, goes to her garden to cry, where she meets a fairy prince named Percinet, who promises to aid her as he has fallen in love with her. Many times he tries to prove his love to her, but Graciosa is hesitant about returning his love. And when the princess finds herself in danger, her life will depend on whether she agrees to go to his palace...This tale is in the public domain and can be read here, here and here. Also see Cupid And Psyche for a tale of the same type and this tale's likely inspiration.Author Josepha Sherman adapted the tale into her book Child of Faerie, Child of Earth (1992). | |

Spoiled Sweet: When Graciosa's mother was alive, she gifted her daughter with a golden dress every day, and Graciosa grew up having a whole lot of sweetmeats and jam for lunch. Despite this, she did not grow up vain or conceited. | |

Even Evil Has Standards: The fairy who assists Grognon with giving Graciosa impossible tasks is described as being nearly as wicked as Grognon, yet when the fairy realizes exactly who she has been punishing, she begs Graciosa's forgiveness and gives Grognon her Karmic Death. | |

Impossible Task | |
| Graciosa And Percinet / int_bd6b86df | comment |
Impossible Task: Grognon gives Graciosa three: to untangle a hopelessly tangled skein without breaking a single thread, to separate a pile of bird feathers into piles of each species's feathers, and to deliver a box to her without opening it. Percinet uses fairy magic to help Graciosa with each. | |
