ATU 300: The Dragon-Slayer

**ATU 300: The Dragon-Slayer** is a wonder tale type in the Aarne-Thompson-Uther Index.

## General Description

The hero acquires helpful animals (dogs) through exchange or because they were born with him. He can also receive sometimes a magic object, like a sword or stick. A princess destined to be sacrificed to a dragon is offered in marriage to whoever can rescue her. The hero kills the dragon and cuts out his tongues. An impostor brings the dragon's head to the king saying it was him the one who defeated the monster, and forces an oath of secrecy to the princess. Sometimes the impostor kills the hero too, but he's resuscitated by the helpful animals. The day when the impostor is going to marry the princess the hero appears and proves he was the true Dragon-Slayer showing the dragon's missing tongues, and sometimes another token as proof, usually a gift given by the princess like a ring or a handkerchief. Unmasked the impostor the hero marries the princess.

## Characteristics

The ATU type 300 is the first wonder tale type in the ATU Index, and the first in the category *Supernatural Adversaries*. All the tale types that fall into that category have in common plots revolving around the defeat of some supernatural antagonist. In this case, the antagonist in most of the variants is a dragon with several heads, usually seven. The motivation to defeat the dragon in this stories is to rescue the princess that's gonna be sacrificed to the dragon.

Like in type 301, the second half of this tale, once the princess is already rescued, consists in the hero proven to be the one who rescued the princess, who's forced to marry a false hero who took credit for the hero's feat.

This tale tend to appear in variants combined with other tale types, specially ATU 303 *The Twin Brothers* and ATU 315 *The Treacherous Sister*.

Albanian tales

**Albanian tales** is the denomination given to the tales collected from Albania.

## History

### 19th Century

The first Albanian folktales were published as early as in 1864 when the collection *Griechische und Albanische Märchen* by Austrian consul Johann Georg von Hahn (1811-1869), which was made up mostly of Greek folktales and originally published in German. Despite that Hahn collected some noteworthy tales of Albanian origins, like a variant of *Snow White* that starts with the princess, called Marigo, persuaded by her governess to murder her own mother so she could marry Marigo's father. Instead of a magic mirror the stepmother asks the Sun who's the fairest, and instead of seven dwarves Marigo lives with forty dragons.

Thanks to the rise of the nationalist movement in Albania in the second half of the century Albanian authors started to collect the folktales and publishing them in their native language. Thimi Mitko (1820-1890) published in 1878 a book titled *The Albanian Bee* in which he included all kinds of folklore from southern Albania, included folktales.

Interest in collecting Albanian folktales by foreign authors in the late 19th Century was mainly because of the interest in the less known Indo-European languages. French folklorist Auguste Dozon (1822-1890) published in 1881 a collection of Albanian folktales originally writen in French, titled *Albanian Tales Collected and Translated*. Danish linguist Holger Pedersen (1867-1953)
Basque tales

**Basque tales** is the denomination given to the tales collected from the Basque Country, a region located around the western end of the Pyrennes on the coast of the Bay of Viscay.

## History

### 19th Century

Interest in Basque folklore and oral tradition raised in the second half of this century, although most of the people interested on it weren't Basques themselves. Because of that most of the collections of Basque folktales weren't originally published in Basque but in other languages instead, mostly in French although there were some in English too. Jean-François Cerquand (1816-1888) was one of the pioneers collecting stories from the Basque oral tradition, publishing them in his four-volume collection Légendes et récits du Pays Basque, whose first volume was published in 1875 and the fourth and last one in 1882. Anglican clergyman Wentworth Webster (1828-1907) was interested on the Basque language and traditions, publising in 1877 the collection *Basque Legends*. Julien Vinson (1843-1926) was another French linguist interested on the Basque culture, publishing in 1883 *Le Folk-lore du Pays Basque*.

### 20th Century

Linguist Resurrección María de Azkue (1864-1951) started to publish in 1935 *Euskaleriaren yakintza*, the first collection of Basque folktales collected by a collector with the Spanish citizenship, in contrast to the collections published the previous centuries, most of them done by foreign collectors. Azkue finished it in 1946, and it was a bilingual collection, with the tales published in both Spanish and Basque.

ATU 451: The Maiden Who Seeks Her Brothers

**ATU 451: The Maiden Who Seeks Her Brothers** is a wonder tale type in the Aarne-Thompson-Uther Index.

## General Description

Brothers leave the parental home because their father plan to kill them if the next baby their mother has is another boy, or are cursed by a family member, normally the mother or stepmother, to become birds (ravens, swans, eagles). The mother gives birth to a girl who after discovering she has siblings and why she never heard of them goes out to find them. When she finally finds her brothers, usually at the top of a glass mountain, they tell her she must keep silent for a period of time, for example one year for each brother. Sometimes she can't laugh or cry too. She also has to sew shirts and other pieces of clothing during that period of time. One day before the enchantment is over a king finds the heroine and brings her to his castle to marry her. The king's mother hates her daughter in law because she's mute, and each time she gives birth to a baby she abandons the baby and accuses the heroine of killing her own children. After so many allegations the heroine, who can't defend herself because she can't say a word, is condemned to die. The execution's day the brothers appear carrying the heroine's children and say to her sister that the spell is over, and that she can't talk now. The heroine reveals all her mother-in-law's scheme, and proven her innocence the mother-in-law is executed instead. Normally although the spell is broken one of the brothers is left with a wig instead of an arm because her sister couldn't sew the missing sleeve, or missing an eye if she shed a tear when she was supposed to not cry besides not talk.

Boris Cliff

**Boris Cliff** - jeden z przywódców Kościoła Srebrnego Wilka. Pełni także rolę opiekuna Nazuny, w czasie gdy ta jest guru Kościoła.

## Wygląd

Boris ma długie blond włosy i kwadratową szczękę, a swoją twarz zasłania maską. Jego strój składa się z białego fartucha, szarych rękawiczek i zielonkawego munduru sugerującego, że jest duchownym Kościoła.

Boris to Zwierzoludź wąż. W anime nigdy nie przybrał swojej postać zwierzęcej, jedynie kilka razy można zaobserwować u niego wężowe oczy, a w czasie kiedy zapadł na chorobę nirwasylską przemienił się w w poskręcaną hybrydę człowieka i węża o wielu głowach.

## Osobowość

Najlepiej można go opisać jako zimnego, wyrachowanego i manipulującego. Stara się nie dopuszczać nikogo do Nazuny, a ją samą traktuje jak swoją "zawsze piękną" lalkę, czym wzbudza przerażenie u Michiru. Sama Michiru wielokrotnie ostrzega przyjaciółkę mówiąc, że Boris jest przerażającym dziwakiem.

Boris sprawia również wrażenie osoby głęboko wierzącej w idee Kościoła, jest to jednak część jego manipulacji mającej na celu wypełnienie planu Alana Sylvasta odnośnie zwalczenia choroby nirwasylskiej.

Armenian tales

**Armenian tales** is the denomination given the tales collected from Armenia.

## History

### 19th Century

Undoubtely the most important figure in regards to Armenian tales this century is Ghazaros Aghayan (1840-1911). Besides a folklorist and writer he was also an educator, and he believed on the importance of fairy tales in children's education, as we can see in his tale *Anahit*, the story about a commoner girl who refuses to marry a prince until he learns a trade. The prince learns to wave, something that will become handy when he's made a war prisoner. The fact his enemies are illiterate plays also an important role in the story, another way that Aghayan defended his thesis of the importance of education.

### 20th Century

After what is known as the Armenian Genocide, many Armenians were forced to leave their homeland. That population migrated to several countries, including the United States, where several important communities of inmigrants appeared, included in the city of Detroit. It was there were Susie Hoogasian Villa, studying Armenian traditions from the Armenian community that lived there collected an impressive amount of folktales that ended up published in 1966 in the collection *100 Armenian Tales*. Among the tales included in that collection we should mention *Nourie Hadig*, that combined the tale type of *Snow White* with *The Sleeping Prince*, and *Yeghnig Aghpar*, which combined *Little Brother and Little Sister* with *The Kind and the Unkind Girls*.
Joe Deweese

Joe is a very cool man on the phone helping mom save the alternate world?

Joe is a man trying to fix the other-world and help Kate Greystone. He is an expert on gadgets. In *The Strangers* he helped the Greystone kids rescue the Gustano children. In *The Deceivers* he was rescued from the other-world by the Greystone kids and Natalie Mayhew, other-Natalie, and maybe Lana. It was also revealed his full name is Joe Deweese.
Rocket

**Rocket** is the pet cat of the Greystone Family.

## Personality

Rocket seems to be very curious yet self-reliant, as he is unbothered by being left home alone. He seems relatively well-trained with his litterbox and in not stealing food, but he is known to investigate strange things, such as stray cords and open doors. He tends to wander, though he is very good at locating his owners, and when nobody's home he often goes to Kate Greystone's room to curl up by the window.

Finn Greystone seems the most attached to him, and pets him when depressed.

## Physical Appearance

Rocket is small and fluffy. On the cover of *The Strangers*, he seems to be illustrated as a white or pale gray tabby.

Kate Gustano

**Kate Gustano** is the matriarch of the Gustano Family. She is the peaceful world's counterpart to Kate Greystone.

## Physical Appearance

Aside from personal style and more tanned skin, she looks completely identical to Kate Greystone. This Kate has her same voice, mannerisms and dark eyes, though her hair is cut shorter into a pixie style. She tilts her head while upset and develops twin worry lines on her forehead when worried, which then erase when she tries to sound more optimistic and cheerful than she feels. She also has a steady gaze.

## Trivia

* The name "Kate" is a diminutive of "Katherine," which derives from the greek name Αικατερινη *(Aikaterine)*, which has many possible derivations: due to this, it could mean "each of the two," "torture," "my consecration of your name," or "pure."

Finn Greystone

**Finn Michael Greystone** is the youngest of the three Greystone children. He is the Other World's version of Finn Gustano.

## Personality

Finn is very wild, imaginative and impulsive. He can often be scatter-brained, with his thoughts flitting from one place to another and leading him to forget things. He is very energetic, mischievous, and incredibly daring, and gets confused when older children and adults are more careful and fearful.

He is very attached to his family, especially his mom, Kate Greystone; when she leaves on business trips, he gets very upset and often cries when considering it or other unpleasant things. He is also very close with their pet cat, Rocket, and pets him when stressed.

His most dangerous vice is his impulsivity and inability to think before speaking, which causes him to blurt out information that should have been hidden, put his feelings on display for all to see, and sometimes draw unwanted attention, such as when his outburst at his mother's trial almost got them caught and arrested. He is noted to be a good actor when the situation calls for it, though, and he ends up close friends with Natalie Mayhew, as the two of them usually worked together to deceive her mother into believing nothing was wrong.

Finn also gets upset when he is treated as a child and unable to understand things by his siblings, and insists on being told the same things as them.

## Physical Appearance

Finn has wild and uncontrollable brown hair with cowlicks, and as his mother is unable to tame it, he "claims" that his hair has superpowers. His ears tilt slightly, making him look "a little elfin," and he has a mischievous smirk. He is noted to be one of the shortest kids in his class. His skin is a bit lighter than Finn Gustano; he mentions himself to be white.

## Trivia

* His first name, "Finn," is an irish name meaning "fair" or "white."
	+ His middle name, "Michael," comes from the Hebrew מִיכָאֵל *(Mikha'el)*, meaning "who is like God?"

Greystone Secrets Wiki

*Seeing is Deceiving*
**What makes you *you*?**
The Greystone kids thought they knew. Chess has always been the protector over his younger siblings, Emma loves math, and Finn does what Finn does best—acting silly and being adored. They’ve been a happy family, just the three of them and their mom.

But everything changes when reports of three kidnapped children reach the Greystone kids, and they’re shocked by the startling similarities between themselves and these complete strangers. The other kids share their same first and middle names. They’re the same ages. They even have identical birthdays. Who, exactly, are these strangers?
