Thank you for commenting on my story. It is much appreciated. I have taken your advice and now shortened the story summary. As the story progresses you will find that the characters will become less symbolic and more realistic IMHO. I find that POV changes are a pet peeve with some and with others it isn't a problem. Although I have endeavoured to avoid making too many POV changes in subsequent chapters. The story uses fairy tales as a thin framework, and you will recognise parts of Snow White and the Snow Queen throughout.
