The Last Unicorn #1

She is a woman, Your Highness, and that's riddle enough.

Luca Stromann

"There is much misjudgment in the world. Now l knew you for a unicorn when I first saw you, and I know that I am your friend. Yet you take me for a clown, or a clod, or a betrayer, and so must I be if you see me so. The magic on you is only magic and will vanish as soon as you are free, but the enchantment of error that you put on me I must wear forever in your eyes. We are not always what we seem, and hardly ever what we dream."

"Two long and one short," he sighed presently. “Awell, tis no more foolish than the time he’d have no password at all, and shot any who answered the challenge.“

"I like being brave well enough, but I will be a lazy coward again if you think that would be better. The sight of her makes me want to do battle with all evil and ugliness, but it also makes me want to sit still and be unhappy. What should I do, Molly?"
