The Prince and the Foal
The Prince and the Foal (German: Vom Prinzen und seinem Fohlen; Greek: Το βασιλόπουλο καὶ τὸ πουλάρι, romanized: To basilópoulo kai to poulári, lit. 'The King's Son and the Foal') is a Greek folktale from Epirus, first collected by Austrian consul, Johann Georg von Hahn and published in the mid-19th century. It deals with a friendship between a king's son and a magic horse that are forced to flee for their lives due to the boy's own mother, and reach another kingdom, where the prince adopts another identity.
