“This musical mushroom has a magical story from where it came from. This magical mushroom that glows and sings actually came from a beautiful princess,” Old Grandma Turtle started.

In a land beyond the forest, there is a place called Brighton where it has been peacefully reigned by King Anton and Queen Louise. Since they have ascended in the throne, they have been well loved and supported by their people. They were kind, humble and down to earth royals that would even find time to really mingle with the poorest of the poor. However, as they grow old, they have been yearning for a child of their own. And, for the last try and wish of her husband, they were able to successful carry a child.

But, the pregnancy was even more difficult. The Queen has to stay in bed most of time that she became weak and sicklier. The palace was in such distress, they tried everything to make this work. The king searched high and low for a magical cure to help his beloved. Then, one day, he stumbled upon an old man asking for food. His guards were too preoccupied that they disregarded the old man’s plea. However, the king noticed him and even though he was too stressed out, he offered a piece of his bread. Delighted, the old man gave him mushrooms.

Even in doubt, the king accepted the mushrooms, hid them in his pocket and went back to his queen in great dismay. He has no choice but to choose between his wife and his future child.

When the day of giving birth came, the king was weeping by the side of his queen for in any minute he might have to lose one of them. However, when the queen was about to take the last push and her last breath, the mushrooms suddenly serenaded the room. The mushrooms instantly glowed radiating such warmth and life to his wife and newborn daughter.

“See dearies, the kindness of the king paid off to save the lives of his loved ones. And, since then, this musical mushroom never left the side of their Princess Anin.” Old Grandpa Mouse ended.
