Allerleirauh

In the magical kingdom of Silberwald, King Silberhaar is heartbroken after the death of his beloved queen. His daughter, Princess Aurelia, finds solace in her dreams of marrying her father, a desire amplified by his own grief and loneliness. When he proposes marriage, Aurelia flees, aided by magical creatures and dons a cloak made of a thousand different fabrics, becoming Allerleirauh. She finds refuge in a castle where she works as a scullery maid, all while evading her father's search and holding onto her own desires.
