Now that IS quite and night and much more exciting and creative than the Cinderella story. I like that the prince and Amy found each other through their originality and that she was brave enough to free herself from the assassin's grip. Congratulations on the win!!

I really enjoyed reading your story. You painted a vivid picture in my mind of a masquerade ball. The characters you described quite well and they were likeable. I thought the costume of your heroine was very creative and imaginative. I found the story charming, cute and sweet. I was glad Amy got her Prince Ivan at the end and it was truly a happily ever after. You're really talented and I thank you for sharing your tale. Best wishes in the contest.

A fairy-tale story with a happy ending. The atmosphere of a royal ball is well developed. Some edits you may want to make before the contest:
"...the idea of a tree truck (trunk)..."
"His parents(,)being who they were(,) planned..."
"as his (he) kneeled by his father's side."
"And he has given me (an) order."
You may also want to consider changing the "criminal" to the "assassin"
Good Luck
Dick

We all need a few fairy tales to bring us back to some amount of normalcy. What a beautifully written story! Please check your paragraph breaks.

Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day and God bless.

This was a nice story, I enjoyed the writing and the chosen aesthetic for the piece. There are some very minor errors that need to be refreshed in editing but other than some small details, I thought you did a really good job here. Thank you for sharing, later daze.

This was a lovely Cinderella-type story. Like Amy, it took imagination on your part to come up with it. I haven't seen many entries for this so you stand a good chance of winning the contest. Nicely done.
