AUTHOR’S NOTE

I have written this story on behalf of my knowledge of tragedies written by William Shakespeare. Hereby, I have decided to create my own tragic novel. In it, you will find a girl raised in a snowy forest of mutant animals, such as mammals with four eyes, or a lizard or frog with only one eye. This story shall take place somewhere near Eastern Europe in a future time of years of snow, much like an ice age in Mesopotamia.

The protagonist visits a castle belonging to a cruel lord who wants to dispose of her. This antagonist will find a way to kill her.

That mother died in the cold as the basket flowed down the river about to enter a forest of dead trees with no leaves.

CHAPTER II

T he baby’s basket flowed down a nearby creek next to a forest with green grass surrounded by snow. A four-eyed squirrel named Atticus, saw the basket knowing that there must be something important inside. He slid down from his tree to take a closer look.

This baby could be a use of the forest, Atticus thought. Far ahead,
