Sofia the First: Once Upon a Princess Page #4

---

Hmm?

Just up the stairs. Come along.

And this, my dear,

is where the magic happens.

Oh, that's just Wormwood, my raven.

Now, you stop it, Wormie!

You're scaring the princess.

Now, I make all the royal potions

right here.

Wow! This is really neat, Mr. Ceedric.

Hey, that looks just like my amulet.

Well, I'll be a dragon's uncle,

you're right.

Oh, but if you had the Amulet of Avalor,

you'd know,

for it contains powerful magic.

With each deed performed,

for better or worse,

a power is granted, a blessing or curse.

- Really?

- Well, yeah, you know,

if it's the real amulet.

But only a certified sorcerer,

such as myself, could tell for sure.

If you like, I can take a quick look at it.

I don't know.

Oh, I'll give it right back. I promise.

But I promised never to take it off.

And my mother says, "A broken promise

can never be glued back together."

How irritatingly charming.

Oh, well, look at the time.

Hope you enjoyed the tour.

I know how hard it can be

adjusting to royal life.

So, if you ever need any help,

my door is always open.

Ooh! I'll get that amulet.

Well, should we wake her up?

Are you kidding? The girl screamed

like a banshee yesterday.

And I got sensitive ears.

- I'm not going to scream.

- That's a relief.

- You can hear us?

- You can talk?

"Can he stop talking?"

is a better question.

Hey!

So, what are we dealing with here?

Some kind of a magic spell

or something?

Hmm.

"With each deed performed,

for better or worse,

"a power is granted,

a blessing or curse."

I helped a baby bird yesterday

and I think the amulet gave

me the power to talk to animals!

Oh.

That is great, kid,

'cause there's a few things that

I've been meaning to talk

to you princesses about.

Clover, not now.

She needs to get dressed for school.

It's okay, Clover. Tell me.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. You ever heard of

personal space, momma? Put me down.

Oh, sorry. You're just so cute

and cuddly I couldn't help it.

- Yeah, well, please, help it.

Okay. Now, why do you think

us woodland creatures

have been helping you princesses

for all these years?

I don't know.

Tell me.

'Cause we gotta eat.

And you got the food.

We've helped princesses

for many eons

But you treat us all like furry peons

We make your bed

Clean up your messes

Wake you up

And put on all your dresses

And what's our reward?

What thanks do we get?

Not a crumb, not a morsel

No brie, no baguette

Did you really think

after all these years

When we did your chores

we were volunteers?

A little bit of food is all that we seek

A little bit to eat

- Fill our tummy

Wet our beak

A little bit to munch

- Like breakfast

- Dinner

Lunch

A nut, a seed, a bean
