A miner left his three daughters each a Bitcoin unconditionally. The eldest 2 saved it and never touched it. The youngest however went up to the Citadel and spent the coin on the most beautiful flute she could find.
One day she went to a field and started playing her new flute. To her amazement a blue horse came out of the woods towards her. She mounted the horse, it grew wings and it took off for the sky.
Landing near an inn at the edge of a forest, it started grazing like mad. She went into the inn, tired from the journey and slept the whole night. When she woke up the next morning, the horse was gone.
Weeping she asked the innkeeper what happened to the blue horse. He said: “I’ve never heard of any blue horse before much less seen one. The only blue thing here I know of is the lake in the middle of the forest.”
Not knowing what else to do, she took off for the lake. When she found it, she felt enchanted by its deep blue color. She took a swim in it. Fatigued afterwards, she fell asleep under a tree.
The next morning she woke up and saw that the whole lake was gone. Only a deep pit was left with a rock in the middle. She climbed down and found it had writings on it. It said: ”I’m in the Blue Castle.”
She looked around but there was only a grey castle nearby. The tears could not be kept from her now. And she wept so heavily that the tears filled up the whole lake again. Done crying she looked into the lake and in its reflection saw the Blue Castle.
It was night time when she entered the castle. She searched through all the rooms. Finally in the cellar she saw a bright blue light. In there lay sleeping a blue Prince.
Next to the bed stood a bottle with a note that said: ”This is only my digital self. The evil Witch has enslaved the real me, and only the right key will set me free.”
She opened the bottle and drank all the contents. She fell into the deepest sleep yet. Only to wake up the next morning back into her father’s house.
Her sisters told her at breakfast that the queen’s son wanted to marry. And all the girls in the land were invited to the citadel. To try and propose in their best dresses.
First the eldest went to see the Prince, but she refused the offer. Then the second went to see the Prince, and she refused the offer. The youngest wanted to go, but she had spent all her money.
210,000 blocks passed. When the youngest daughter brought her old father to a blue bar. A sign above the door said: “the rich pay with Bitcoin, the poor pay nothing”
Her father walked right in and was served by a blue ugly robot. The girl immediately recognized the color. And took out her flute, that had now turned to a glowing blue, and played in the right key.
The robot transformed into the handsome Prince she remembered from her dream. He immediately liquidated the queen. For she was the evil Witch that had imprisoned him.
The Prince said: “My digital and real me have now become one. And now I have unlocked all my time for you”. So they married and became the first sovereigns of the Citadel.
