Snow Black was the fairest princess in the land, but the queen wanted her dead. The queen sent guards to kill Snow Black, but one took pity on her and let her escape into the woods. Snow Black found an empty cottage with eight tiny beds, where she rested. Later, the eight dwarves who lived there found Snow Black and let her stay. Weeks later, the queen used a magic brush to learn Snow Black's location. In disguise, the queen tried to poison Snow Black, but ended up poisoning herself instead. Snow Black then met a prince who asked for her hand in marriage. They were wed and lived happily ever after.
