12th: Rumpelstiltskin

Once upon a time, there was the miller's daughter who was very beautiful, shrewd and clever. Her father was so proud of her that he told the king of the land that his daughter could spin gold out of straw. The king loved money, so his greediness was raised by hearing that. He made the miller's daughter come before him, and ordered her to make gold from a great heap of straw before morning. Though what her father had said was only a lie, she would be killed if she couldn't complete it.

She sat down in the corner of the chamber, and began to cry. Suddenly, the door which had been locked opened, and a droll-looking little man came in. After he heard her fate, he said that he would complete the task in exchange of her neckless. He had done it before the next morning.

When the king came and saw this, the king was greatly surprised, and he became more greedy of gain.  

But she didn't know how to do it, and sat down once more to weep. Then the dwarf soon open the door and said that he would complete the task in exchange of her ring. He had done it before the next morning again.

The king was greatly delighted, but he became to want more. He ordered her again. This time, if she could do this task, she could married with him.  The dwarf came and needed some exchange with his work, but she didn't have anything to give him. Then, he suggested that she promised him to give her first child that she may have when she became queen. She accepted the promise, and the dwarf completed the task. She met demands of the king, so she really became queen. When she got her first little child, she forgot the dwarf and the promise. But one day, he came into her room, where she was sitting playing with her baby. He said that he allowed  her to keep her child if she could tell him his name in three days. After that, she started to think of his name.

I think it was a very difficult question. Do you think she could tell him his name?
