Due to the raping of the young maiden, the Knight shall be beheading
Queen
Instead of immediate death, the Knight must return to this court in exactly a year with the answer to our question. If he is right he may live, but if he is wrong, he will be killed. The question he must answer is "what do women desire most?"
Knight
What is it that women desire most?
What is it that women desire most?
Honor
Riches
Throughout the whole year:
clean of sins
But he knew none of them were the answer the queen wanted
To be wise
What is it that women desire most?
What is it that women desire most?
A year later on his way to the court house:
Do you know what women most desire?
Ok, deal. What is the answer?
ugly, old hag
24 women dancing and singing
I know the answer but I will only tell you if you agree to give me anything I want from you if I am correct.
The thing women most desire is sovereignty over their husbands.
At the court house:
After the court:
Your answer was correct, and I get to live. What do you want from me.
That is correct. You get to live.
It has been one year. Do you have the answer to my question?
You must love and marry me.
Yes, the thing women most desire is sovereignty over their husbands.
At their wedding:
You are old, ugly and repulsive! I can't believe I have to marry you!
You choose if you want to marry me or not!
If I were young and beautiful many men would be after me. Would you rather a beautiful, unfaithful wife, or an ugly but faithful one. It is your choice
You have not looked at me all night, why?
And they live happily ever after
She had won sovereignty over him
Kiss me and you will find me faithful and beautiful.
