**Please use your own judgement before sharing these stories with children. Although I do my best to keep the language friendly, the content may not be everyone's cup of tea.

Summary

The little soldier manages to catch the attention of the royal family and is given an audience. He tells the King and Queen of Ludovine's promise to marry him and seemingly they agree the promise should be kept, but only if the magic money purse is given to Ludovine. Despite his misgivings, the soldier hands it over.

True to their natures, and in possession of this great treasure, the royal family avoids the soldier. Remembering he still has the mantle, he takes Ludovine to the end of the world. Cleverly, she gets the mantle away from him and leaves him stranded.

On his long journey back to the Low Country, the soldier finds some magical fruit which he ultimately uses to teach ludovine a lesson and retrieve the magical objects loaned him by the Seagull.
