The prince agreed, but he did not dare to climb the tree.&nbsp;

The prince and princess were very excited. They promised that they would do their best to rule over a happy kingdom for their people.

The tree was owned by a tree elf. It stopped the princess.

If you want to climb my tree, you must fulfill my wish first! Give me a flower that never withers!

They knew they would certainly get lost without a map.&nbsp;The prince was very upset.

The princess and prince told their parents how they had persuaded the tree elf to let them climb up the tree, and how they got a map of the maze. The king and queen were very proud of their children.

One day a monster took away the king and queen and trapped them in the middle of a large maze.

After some time they arrived at the entrance of the maze. The maze was so large.

With the map, the prince and princess successfully saved the queen and king.

They all returned to their palace safe and sound.
