“Cry no more now and go to sleep, and if you cannot sleep, I will tell you a story, a pretty story of flowers and gems and birds, of a young prince and a little princess. ... For in the world there is nothing more than a story.”
Gigantically massive, with three hundred towers, on the summit of a rocky mountain, rose the king’s castle high into the clouds.
But the summit was broad, and flat as a plateau, and the castle spread far out, for miles and miles, with ramparts and walls and pinnacles.
Louis Couperus
