The mind of an archontic parasite has no creativity all it can do mimmick twist and invert something that already exists

If you look at the original Grimm fairy tails, they have quite different endings than what is currently known.
This is just doubling down on a long standing process.



Exactly. The original CInderella story, for example, had each of her step sisters actually take a knife and cut off a portion of their foot to make the glass slipper fit, and the Prince believed them, both times, until the birds alerted him to a trail of blood they were leaving behind them on their way to the palace.

The song we used to sing as little kids, Ring Around the Rosies, is about all the people dying from Small Pox.


The current knowledge I have is that the first Cinderella story was Chinese and talked about fish scale slippers.

Ring around the Rosies, I have also heard as being about pox. With pocket full of posies being a folk remedy.
I've also heard "Ashes, Ashes, we all fall down."
Is a corruption of (modern spelling) "Achoo Achoo, we all fall down."
Which is an interesting thing to think about. Achu'n I think was the past spelling.

It is quite interesting to see what stories are changed and why.
