A love story.
Once Upon a Time, an overly generous King loved his overly diminutive Queen just too much. One day the Queen said, "I would like a stable of dancing horses!" The King said, "My dear, you can have whatever you want."
So, the Queen went and got a pedigreed Sard. Then she got another pedigreed Sard. And then another. And another. Soon there was no room in the stables and the dancing Sards were in the rose garden and in the castle hall. They didn't always dance. Sometimes they lounged around. Sometimes they drank the king's wine. The King would just step around them and go about his business.
Then the Queen said, "Darling, don't you think it is time for us to extend an engraved invitation to the Goblin King to come and visit? He's quite famous, you know." The King said, "Whatever you would like to do." So, the Queen invited him. She had splendid clothes made ready for his arrival.
The Goblin King wasn't arround for two seconds when it occurred to her: She would rather have a Sard. Poof! With a wave of her hand, she turned the Goblin King into a Sard. And that is why when you see the Goblin King in Fairyland that he he looks just like a Sard. It is because he is one.
And the King could care less.
