1
The Princess Prince A long time ago, there lived a king with two daughters.
2
He used to be strong and powerful, but now he had lost the battle with the Emperor.
3
Father, setbacks happen.
4
We will fight back.
5
We cannot.
6
Why not, father?
7
Because the Emperor makes every king he defeats sign a pact
8
that the king or his son will become the Emperor's servant for ten years.
9
Now that I do not have a son, I shall have to become his servant.
10
Father, let me go!
11
But you are not my son.
12
I can't let you go.
13
But the princesses entreated with their father so much, that finally the king let his first daughter go.
14
Get the grandest deed from the stables for my travels.
15
Nobody knows the battlefield better than a war horse horse
16
if I were you I would take father's faithful horse oh
17
that old fellow who lost the battle no the first daughter had barely reached the bridge to the forest
18
that the princess was so terrified as you turn her horse around and rode for dear life.
19
The king was thoroughly disappointed.
20
Father, please let me go.
21
See what happened to your sister?
22
I will never let you down.
23
Father, trust me.
24
So, thinking that she too will come back like her older sister, the king allowed his second daughter to go.
25
She sought out her father's old, old horse.
26
Oh dear horse, you have been with father throughout his great winds and this great loss.
27
I have, your highness.
28
There are not many warriors as brave as your father.
29
Will you come with me and help me with your wisdom?
30
Ah, nobody but your father recognized that horses too are warriors.
31
You are just as wise.
32
I shall be happy to ride you through any trouble or trial that may befall you.
33
Thank you.
34
The second princess rode off on the horse the next day.
35
She had barely reached the first bridge that she saw the massive bear growling menacingly.
36
Remember, Princess, your greatest weapons are your mind and your heart.
37
Can you run faster than the bear?
38
Much faster.
39
Then here's what we'll do.
40
Sorry, dear bear.
41
I hope you're not hurt.
42
Good start, princess.
43
If this is the start, then the forest must be full of far deadlier creatures.
44
Wait a second.
45
Next, the princess was attacked by a group of ferocious lions. But she was ready.
46
Right on!
47
Any other warrior would have killed at least one or two of the lions.
48
They are just trying to protect their homes from intruders and feed themselves.
49
No king or queen is allowed to punish them for that.
50
You are just like your father, noble and kind.
51
Princess, now we are in the territory of the dragon with twelve heads, and there is fire coming from each of those heads, straight at you.
52
Twelve heads?
53
He won't know which head to turn where!
54
Oh no!
55
AHHHHH!
56
AHHHHH!
57
Now that he is burning himself over with his own fire, time to ride.
58
Dear Princess, I have seen you have ridden so far without harming a single animal or tree of the forest.
59
Take these trees and plant them with the flowers.
60
Good will follow.
61
Thank you.
62
The horse took the princess to a cottage in the woods.
63
This cottage belongs to a genius and his mother, who is a witch.
64
Mind you, if the witch learns that you are a woman, she will make you her servant. Be careful.
65
The princess went to the cottage.
66
Yes?
67
I am a soldier, and I have lost my way.
68
Could you spare me a place for the night, please?
69
The witch let her in, but in a while, she suspected that the soldier was a woman.
70
She is definitely a woman.
71
A woman in this forest?
72
Impossible.
73
I will prove it to you.
74
These flowers were wither, if kept at the bedside of a woman.
75
So the witch kept the flowers beside the princess's bed.
76
But the princess was alert.
77
The moment the witch left, the princess souled the seas.
78
The spirit of the jungle had given her.
79
Mother, I told you, this is a soldier.
80
I don't believe that for a second.
81
And I will imprison and make a servant out of her.
82
Well, good luck.
83
I have to tend to Eilina, beyond the Seven Islands.
84
You have her captive!
85
Just force her to marry you!
86
If she doesn't agree by the end of the year, I will.
87
She got away!
88
Whatever you do, do not pursue her.
89
For the moment you reach the lake, the spirit of the jungle will not spare you.
90
The princess rode off and finally reached the emperor.
91
Your Highness, my father, the King of Ferdimal, has, as per your treaty,
92
sent me as your servant for ten years.
93
Ah, join my other pages.
94
The princess lived and worked like the other princes, who had been made servants by the emperor.
95
How does a lazy man like him win wars?
96
Especially against someone as brave as my father.
97
He doesn't go to war.
98
He simply sends his best commanders and us pages.
99
My Eileena, the love of my life.
100
Whosoever tells me the whereabouts of my Eileena, I shall set free.
101
Eileena!
102
She has been held captive beyond the Seven Islands by the Genius.
103
Oh, how do you know that?
104
My travels have taught me a lot, your highness.
105
Very well.
106
Then you go get her back.
107
But she is the love of your life!
108
Else I shall increase your sentence to twenty years of servitude.
109
The princess went to consult with her wise horse.
110
The genius goes home every night, and that is when we must reach, and this is how.
111
Your Highness, I will go, but I need twenty ships of the finest merchandise of your kingdom.
112
The princess sailed off in one of the ships, along with her horse.
113
When she got to the island beyond the Seven Islands, she pretended to be a merchant,
114
and took with her a bag of the most beautiful collection of things. Who are you?
115
I am the merchant and I explore the different lands.
116
They sell my goods.
117
There is no customer here for you.
118
Go away.
119
Oops!
120
Zyamzori, Zy-Zal Go inside the palace and meet Princess Eilina Buh
121
Go!
122
You saw his wares?
123
Our master, the genius Has been trying to impress Princess Eilina for a long time now
124
Maybe if he buys her these precious things, she might be pleased.
125
Princess Eileena!
126
Here are my wares for zoo!
127
Go away!
128
I am here to rescue you, Princess.
129
The Princess, the who go to my sheep, the who see them rest.
130
The moment Eileen got into the ship, the princess sailed off.
131
When the genius and the soldiers came to know, they were furious.
132
Princess, come on!
133
Go near the lake of the spirit of the jungle!
134
I will get you now!
135
Welcome to my territory!
136
How could you?
137
Now you must fight me!
138
They will take care of you!
139
Your Highness Princess Eileena.
140
What took you so long?
141
Huh?
142
Eileena.
143
Oh, you are far more beautiful than I had heard.
144
I want you to be my wife.
145
But I don't wish to marry you.
146
I am the one who rescued you from the genius.
147
Not you.
148
Your page rescued me from the genius.
149
Woman, how dare you.
150
You will marry me because I say so.
151
Women do as men say.
152
You have no right to force her to marry you, even if you had rescued her.
153
She is not your slave just because you are a man.
154
I will teach you some manners.
155
Set all of these pages free.
156
Princess Eilina will be sent back home respectfully.
157
And finally, my father deserves to be the Emperor, not you.
158
And thus the princess was reunited with her father and in this empire, No woman was ever treated as second to a man ever again.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
