  8. Back in the day.
    Sometimes the only remedy of false love was to put their intended to death. Not so much these days,I hope.
    Good take Suz, sad but true!

  9. Great, sad one, Suz. The prompt was hard for me this time, too. I wanted to do something silly but just couldn't seem to come up with it. Love yours! Have a great week!

  11. That's a sad ending to that fairy tale.

  12. I don't know who I feel more sorry for--the princess or the king. Both are likely to live the remainders of their lives with regret..

    Have a great week. Cheers!

  13. I'm another one who didn't think much of the picture when I first saw it. Now I'm amazed because so many people read completely different things into it. I never even thought of how the king felt. Good for you.
