Summary

After his father kicks him out due to his brother's betrayal, Rosamund meets a fairy who gifts him an enchanted ring. This ring has the powers to make its wearer invisible, and to take on the appearance of the prince. Careful not to misuse the power, Rosamund uses the ring to set right his familial relationships and ingratiate himself with the king. Understanding the responsibility of carrying the ring, he chooses to return it to the fairy. The fairy then gives it to his wicked brother, who uses its power to do awful things, which ultimately get him executed.

In the fairy's words:

"The same things are often a healing medicine to one person and a deadly poison to another."
