And Laufer remained with Lineik as her friend and sister, till they found a husband for her in a great nobleman; and all three couples lived happily until they died. The Six Hungry Beasts Once upon a time there lived a man who dwelt with his wife in a little hut, far away from any neighbours.
'But where is the Princess Lineik? asked the prince when she had ended her tale. 'Here, answered the queen, bringing forward the girl, whom she had hitherto kept in the background. The prince looked at her and was rather disappointed. The maiden was pretty enough, but not much out of the common.
Could she hope that they would be forgotten, and that Lineik would come to her rescue for the third time? And perhaps Lineik, who had not forgotten the past either, might have left her alone, to get on as best she could, had not Sigurd, her brother, implored her to help just once more. So Lineik again slid out of her tree, and, to Laufer's great relief, set herself to work.
Therefore she was easily captured, and the next day was beheaded in the market-place. Afterwards the two princes marched back to Greece. Lineik had no longer any reason for putting off her wedding, and married the Prince of Greece at the same time that Sigurd married the princess.
'Lineik, my sister, he called, softly, 'Laufer is weeping; help her, I pray you. 'Have you forgotten the wrongs her mother did to us' answered Lineik, 'and that it is owing to her that we are banished from home? But she was not really unforgiving, and very soon she slid quietly out of her hiding-place, and taking the silk from Laufer's hands began to weave it.
