The Hero and the Roller

 Once upon a time, there was a wall without color.  In fact, there were many walls without color, all within one castle.  The inhabitants liked how bright and open it felt (when it was clean) but it felt sterile with everything so white.
 The queen of the house decided that they would paint the walls.  But what color?  She tried many different kinds until she finally found one that she thought would work.  But, alas!  She was with child, expecting the newest princess in only 3 months.  How would they paint the castle?


Suddenly, a hero appeared, wielding a roller-full of paint with speed and accuracy.  Her brushwork was swift and deft.  Within two days she had utterly banished the white from the living room and front room.
 Not only that, but she was also pretty good at telling stories to the young prince and princess.
And they all lived happily ever after.
