My immediate thought upon that utterance was, "That's the most Aussie thing Dael has ever said on this channel." (Almost thought I was watching How Ridiculous for a mo'.) Totally brilliant.
"What does the king think she's doing during all of this?" Like father like daughter; if Snow isn't too bright maybe she got her dose of 'bad brain' from dear old dad
"The queen was very clever" Uh, I guess relatively speaking, she was, but overall, I kinda doubt it, she failed four times to eliminate a small, gullible child.
For sanity's sake, I'm imagining the prince as a seven-year-old, as well. Snow White, on waking: "You not funny whistle guy. You poo-poo head!" Prince: "How wavishing! We will... be mawwied and... I have hot shoes at MY home!"
I doubt you care but i feed on people thinking i'm smart. chucking a wobbly is a reference to the international workers of the world who called themselves wobblies. they were/are a union who were anti war and they would strike when any of their work benefited wars, which is why it's called chucking a wobbly. it became shorthand for complaining. i need validation.
@@ShankarSivarajan not as far as i know. my old history teacher had been a member of the IWW for like 60 years and she brought it up in class one day. Her speciality was Australian history so I'm inclined to believe her. It could be wrong but i really don't think so.
When you stopped after biting the apple, I thought maybe you had poisoned the red side for authenticity's sake, and then remembered one bite too late...
I think it's one of the most beautiful, heart touching details that the dwarfs put so much work into caring for Snow White's dead body. Admittedly, one of them probably should have stayed with her while she was alive, too, but still XD XD Also, I adore the way you tell stories :) Your style has a very 'chatting over coffee/tea' kinda vibe, very comfortable and chill :)
Honestly, you're one of my favourite UA-camrs. I love the way you tell the stories. Always had a fascination with mythology and fairy tales and the way you tell them makes them easy to understand and incredibly interesting. Even when I knew the story already, I tend to learn something new as well as just enjoy the video. You tell it like you're talking to a friend instead of an audience and your own enthusiasm makes it even better!
I feel that a woman who can disguise herself that well and mastered potions and poisons could have focused on something else besides her appearance for self worth. Also the Prince comes off as creepy as hell here.
Ebony Black should be her Rogue name for when she needs to fight for the people. "Snow White is too good. We'll overrun the town, and she'll be powerless to stop us." "My name is Ebony Black, and you've just made your last mistake."
Scott Smart And then Blood Red is the name she takes after slaughtering countless enemies of the town, and she’s become cold hearted and distant, but you can still see a red storm brewing in her eyes.
Honestly, the queen was a slower learner than Snow White. Snow white at least got progressively more distrusting with each murder attempt, but the queen never got any more thorough. If I was in her position I would have taken a knife with and made sure to come home with the right heart after the lace trick, and I certainly would have after the comb even if I couldn't eat it because of all the poison.
Note: the Disney movie is called "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs", because that was considered the correct plural of dwarf until Tolkien insisted (against the protest of his editor) that it should be "dwarves".
Dael - you being unable to whistle reminds me of my mum... My mother always used to claim that women couldn't whistle - even straight after I caught her whistling along to something... Even though I was small, I wasn't that gullible!
-pale white skin -goes long periods without breathing on several occasions -comes back from the death repeatedly are we even sure this "little girl" was alive in the first place? sounds a bit suspicious, even for a Faerie Dael. hmm...
1) Kinda makes you think about how this kid was born genetically made up, lipstick and all. Add that one to the disturbed list. 2) How you gonna disprove Australian stereotypes by backing out a Crocodile Dundee knife so casually? 3) Didn't they do the usual thing of asking the queen how someone who'd done such and such a crime should be punished? Because that punishment sounds like one of those.
I always thought there was a chance that Snow White was actually with the Dwarfs for a few years. So, she might have at least been a teenager by the time the Queen did the whole deadly bodice lace thing. That's how they do it in the Cannon Films version.
Okay so one version of the queen trying to kill Snow White has her suffocating, another has her effectively choking on food. Is it possible the idea that the prince brought her back with a kiss was because he had to do mouth to mouth to revive her?
i told a version of snow white quite different from this 1 where the mirror actually questioned the very idea of fairness, the queen threw out the mirror, snow white found it, it questioned her fairness, she threw it out, also the dwarfs complained that the mirror was questioning the whole idea of shaving while they were trying to shave to it, then the prince found the mirror and the prince actually loved the way the mirror thought, in my version the prince and the mirror lived happily ever after.
I heard that in an older version of the story there was no stepmother, the evil queen was the same character as her actual mother. Somehow makes the story even worse
I remember a movie version from like the 80s version where the stepmother was a witch and her immortality was tied to the mirror. She chucked a goblet or something at the mirror the final time it told her snow white was prettier and she started to age as the mirror was cracking and finally exploded. I always thought that was a fitting ending to the story. Ps grandma says hi
"What the he'll mirror, be cool" ~me, every morning For real though, that mirror is a snitch. Sure it only speaks the truth, but it didn't need to tell her snow's location.
The trick is to not breathe the air in with your lungs, it's to suck it in with your lips against your teeth, with the right shape and a bit of experimentation it can be done. You can also whistle by exhaling as well but i've only been able to do that with limited success.
Snow White and the seven *Dwarfs* with an F, because only tolkien was wierd enough to change the spelling of Dwarfs, and he specifically said that his dwarves were nothing like the seven cartoonish little men from the disney film, and he would never call them the same thing because tolkien was insane.
If you are disturbed by the whole 'Snow White was seven years old' thing do what I do. Make it so The Mirror only works every 3 years. That way 3 years pass between each of the 3 attempts to kill Snow White making her a slightly more acceptable 16 when The Prince finds her. Still an adult woman trying to kill a child but less 'child bride'.
I feel like I'm looking right at Snow White Blood Red Black Embroidery Loop all grown up and wearing a superman T-shirt. You are looking a little redder lipped than usual... your hair is a little darker than usual and your skin has always been snow white but I can't tell if it is intentional or not. Very subtle Dael. I once ran a short campaign I called "Snow Wight vs the Seven Dwarves", but the dwarves were based on the Disney names. Grumpy was a Barbarian, Doc was a Cleric Bashful was a thief etc. I wish I knew she was only 7. I would have done things differently. I'll teach you to whistle if you can teach me to snap.
Fair originally ment pale, and being pale was a mark of beauty. Sort of, because the rich didn't work in the fields and didn't get tanned. Of course, that doesn't explain why Snow White wasn't proclaimed the fairest at birth. Maybe the mirror didn't think it mattered until she was of an age to get married?
In the original Grimm version, they had the iron shoes waiting for her on hot coals and carried them over to her with tongs. They knew she would show up, since she was invited. The whole making-her-dance-till-she-dies thing was planned. Snow White's father is only ever mentioned once in that version. Like, wth dude??? But maybe, since everything happens withing a couple of days, he was away on a fishing trip or something and trusted his wife to care for the child. Also: Spieglein, Spieglein an der Wand, Wer ist die Schönste im ganzen Land? Frau Königin, Ihr seid die Schönste hier, aber Schneewittchen über den Bergen, bei den sieben Zwergen, ist noch tausendmal schöner als Ihr. Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Who is the most beautiful in all the land? Madam Queen, you're the most beautiful here, but Snow White, over the Mountains, with the seven dwarfs, is a thousand times more beautiful than you.
Poison Comb Magic item, rare (cursed) This item appears to be an ordinary hair comb, albeit extraordinarily beautiful and of extremely fine craftsmanship. However, it conceals a terrible poison on its teeth. Any creature whose skin touches the teeth of the Poison Comb must make a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned for as long as they remain in contact with the comb. A creature which is poisoned in this way is also paralyzed.
I'm sorry, she...chucked a wobbly??? Thank goodness for the comment section, cause that's not a thing I've ever heard before. It's no wonder people think Australia doesn't exist
"The poison will kill you, but only as long as you are in direct contact with it." She was pretty bad at poisoning, really. Also, a seven-years old doesn't seem that hard to kill (just snap her neck). About the ending, I'm more concerned with the fact that they apparently gruesomely executed a queen for something they had no jurisdiction on and no one had any issue with that.
A story that misunderstands paralytics as old as time. Greusome executions and jurisdictional disputes is a good summary of medieval law tbh. Imagine hundreds of overlapping and competing jurisdictions in every way possible, and oh boy the executions.
You can't whistle? Have you watched all the Bogey and Bacall movies? That's one of the best movie lines ever. Great story as always. Though, what have we discussed before with you and knives? I freaked out for a moment when you whipped that thing out.
Is the age of the Prince ever mentioned? If not, I'm gonna choose to believe he's also a child. Makes the whole thing ever so slightly less disturbing.
"Success! I have bested a seven-year-old child on the third try. I am invincible" said the queen.
Technically the fourth time, I mean there was the huntsman as well
And then she got doused in liquid nitrogen?
@Mitch Lang the queen is not a stranger, it’s her mom, at least in the original Grimm faerie tales... so more
“I’m sorry mommy”
"And the Queen... Chucked a Wobbly!"
Sometimes I forget you're australian. And then you remind me.
My immediate thought upon that utterance was, "That's the most Aussie thing Dael has ever said on this channel." (Almost thought I was watching How Ridiculous for a mo'.) Totally brilliant.
How would you say that in American?
@@windwatcher460 Probably "pitched a fit" or (forgive the profanity) "lost her shit"
Thanks, I had no idea what that meant
A truly drowish expression.
"And in classic fairy tale fashion she got her wish! ...but she died in childbirth." Ah yes! she fell for one of the classic blunders
The first being never get involved in a land war in Asia!
Tolkien had the same problem with his publisher on the 'dwarves' vs. 'dwarfs' thing, but he persisted.
"And the Queen says 'Look, this apple is fine, I'll prove it'" Dael produces a flick knife with worryingly-practiced ease.
Progress has been made since the Jack-o-melon...different kind of knife, but still.
We all have our hobbies.
"What does the king think she's doing during all of this?"
Like father like daughter; if Snow isn't too bright maybe she got her dose of 'bad brain' from dear old dad
"The queen was very clever"
Uh, I guess relatively speaking, she was, but overall, I kinda doubt it, she failed four times to eliminate a small, gullible child.

Snow White, on waking: "You not funny whistle guy. You poo-poo head!"
Prince: "How wavishing! We will... be mawwied and... I have hot shoes at MY home!"
I'm thinking she might have been dead for several years, since it wasn't specified. Just like Sleeping Beauty.
That's the cutest thingggg
"Faerie Daels".... I see what you did there!
the queen 'chucked a wobbly' lol
I doubt you care but i feed on people thinking i'm smart. chucking a wobbly is a reference to the international workers of the world who called themselves wobblies. they were/are a union who were anti war and they would strike when any of their work benefited wars, which is why it's called chucking a wobbly. it became shorthand for complaining. i need validation.

I hope that one day we hear a story about Faerie Deals on Fairie Daels.
that would be interesting to have happen '.'
When you stopped after biting the apple, I thought maybe you had poisoned the red side for authenticity's sake, and then remembered one bite too late...
Disney didn't change too much.
Dael you re too cute.
That ending surprised me, I always knew the red shoes that made you dance as a completely separate fairie tale
Only Dael can keep me entertained with a story I already know.
Great stuff as always.
I think it's one of the most beautiful, heart touching details that the dwarfs put so much work into caring for Snow White's dead body. Admittedly, one of them probably should have stayed with her while she was alive, too, but still XD XD
Also, I adore the way you tell stories :) Your style has a very 'chatting over coffee/tea' kinda vibe, very comfortable and chill :)
I think I'm going to adopt "Chuck a wobbly" best phrase ever.
'chucked a wobbly' is now my new favourite thing ever said...
More like paragon of... being dead!
...yeah
Your getting better. Not one detraction at all. I liked this one. I just read this story a couple weeks ago. I love the Grim collection.
Just proof life is better with Faerie Dael in it, is there anything better than story time with Dael :-)
Travelling across the Seven Mountains sounds like a trivial effort in this story.
This is my favourite way of consuming fairy tales tbh
The quiet piano music, your face, & the story, are all quite lovely on a quiet thursday afternoon.
The real power move is casually pulling out a tastefully pink pocket knife to cut your apple slices.
It also has a mermaid on it 🤩
Almost like a Siren, I respect that.
Honestly, you're one of my favourite UA-camrs. I love the way you tell the stories.

that apple looked so perfect I thought it was plastic!
As usual, your unique storytelling style has brought new life to an old classic. Great Job Dael!
Loved when you called her "Snow"
I feel that a woman who can disguise herself that well and mastered potions and poisons could have focused on something else besides her appearance for self worth. Also the Prince comes off as creepy as hell here.
Fairy Tale: Seven dwarfs
Tolkien: Only seven? So vanilla.
You are just so awesome
Wow Snow White must be related to Rasputin.
Also, great idea to combine Otto's Irresistible Dance with Heat Metal :D
I’m having a kinda shitty day and being able to just sit down and watch this makes it a lot better. Thanks Dael ❤️
I'm sorry your day's been crummy, I hope it improves and that tomorrow's much better!
I originally glanced at the title and saw Snow White and the Seven Daels.
Nice detail on the lipstick.
Figured I was already 2/3 of the way there ;)
@@MonarchsFactory Plus the predominantly blue t-shirt with red and yellow on it. Quite Disney.
You made me want to go and re-read my copy of "Beauty" by Sherri S. Tepper: a rather quirky take on a bunch of the classic Western fairy tales.
This was amazing, told in typical Dael fashion. I have a feeling I'm gonna really enjoy Faerie Daels. :)
“Hi, my name is Snow White Blood Red Ebony Black. It’s like the reverse Cher.”
Ebony Black should be her Rogue name for when she needs to fight for the people. "Snow White is too good. We'll overrun the town, and she'll be powerless to stop us." "My name is Ebony Black, and you've just made your last mistake."

Nick Jeffery I can't whistle either.
I, too, chuck a Wobbly when I am angry.
-pale white skin
-goes long periods without breathing on several occasions
-comes back from the death repeatedly
are we even sure this "little girl" was alive in the first place? sounds a bit suspicious, even for a Faerie Dael. hmm...
I recommend Tanith Lees version in Tales of the Sisters Grimmer.
Neil Gaiman also has opinions on that
Maybe she was the og Eldredge Horror and the mirror was just into really weird shit
Very cool makeup!
Dude, I had this on in the background while I was trying to cook and kept cracking up. Subscribed.
The whistling, ha
Not saying that is the best or only thing, love these videos.
1) Kinda makes you think about how this kid was born genetically made up, lipstick and all. Add that one to the disturbed list.

Yes!! Always a treat to hear a Faerie Dael.

Had to look up "chuck a wobbly". :)
I love that latin root homophone pun for "malicious".
Loved this video! You're delightfully charming. Best part: calling out the mirror for being a snitch and telling it to be cool. Priceless!
This was different from what I expected, and so much more entertaining.
I heard that in an older version of the story there was no stepmother, the evil queen was the same character as her actual mother. Somehow makes the story even worse
Loved the intro whistling! Could watch a whole song performed like that lol.
Omg, who let Dael have a knife again?
I still remember the incident with the “pumpkin carving” 🎃
I love fairy tales!!!
I just had minor surgery and this is making my evening.
I remember a movie version from like the 80s version where the stepmother was a witch and her immortality was tied to the mirror.

Ps grandma says hi
Snow White: A tale of Terror, with Sigourney Weaver as the queen?
I only ever heard or saw the movie version, interesting hearing the original tale and all its differences. Thanks for that.
I'd be wary some fae might think you're making Faerie DEALS, there Dael. ;D
"What the he'll mirror, be cool" ~me, every morning
For real though, that mirror is a snitch. Sure it only speaks the truth, but it didn't need to tell her snow's location.
The older original Grimm Faerie Tale, the Queen was not her step mom, it was her mom
The first bit is a mood
My mother learned how to whistle WATCHING Harpo, and is nearly as good as him. I cannot whistle a note.
Dael, I absolutely love your storytelling style.
"Snick!"
Of course, you have a switchblade.
you and i whistle the exact same way, you're not alone.
The trick is to not breathe the air in with your lungs, it's to suck it in with your lips against your teeth, with the right shape and a bit of experimentation it can be done.
You can also whistle by exhaling as well but i've only been able to do that with limited success.
Lets imagine snow was coma-style for 10+ years and physically aged during that time. I imagine that.
But then... She'd still be mentally seven...
Not so much lace and twine etc. then but corsets and stuff. Got a bit confused about lace and laces there
The mirror who rats is gonna get a crack
Snow White and the seven *Dwarfs* with an F, because only tolkien was wierd enough to change the spelling of Dwarfs, and he specifically said that his dwarves were nothing like the seven cartoonish little men from the disney film, and he would never call them the same thing because tolkien was insane.

Great to see the return of Faerie Daels, thanks for posting.
Although I'm now wondering how many apples were harmed in the making of this production.
Dael, you can’t whistle?!? My entire worldview has changed...
Poison Comb
Magic item, rare (cursed)
This item appears to be an ordinary hair comb, albeit extraordinarily beautiful and of extremely fine craftsmanship. However, it conceals a terrible poison on its teeth. Any creature whose skin touches the teeth of the Poison Comb must make a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned for as long as they remain in contact with the comb. A creature which is poisoned in this way is also paralyzed.
So the evil queen couldn't find a knife?
No, she could. I mean, she cut off a piece of the apple. But she's an evil queen, why would she think to use a knife to kill someone?
OMAR IS GREAT
I'm sorry, she...chucked a wobbly??? Thank goodness for the comment section, cause that's not a thing I've ever heard before. It's no wonder people think Australia doesn't exist
If you asked me what would be the ONE thing that'd make Snow White way more fucked up I would probably say it's _MAKING HER SEVEN_
Anyone who likes this faerie tale should read 'Snow, Glass, Apples' by Neil Gaiman. you will never look at it the same.
Ooh! The graphic novel adaptation won an Eisner this year.
I love the voices and stuff! Playing with you would be great!
Also, you may not be able to whistle, but you look awesome juggling... so hey?!
12:00 perfect opportunity to say "More like paragon of DOODY!"
You're brilliant!
"The poison will kill you, but only as long as you are in direct contact with it."
She was pretty bad at poisoning, really. Also, a seven-years old doesn't seem that hard to kill (just snap her neck).

Greusome executions and jurisdictional disputes is a good summary of medieval law tbh. Imagine hundreds of overlapping and competing jurisdictions in every way possible, and oh boy the executions.
You can't whistle? Have you watched all the Bogey and Bacall movies? That's one of the best movie lines ever. Great story as always. Though, what have we discussed before with you and knives? I freaked out for a moment when you whipped that thing out.
Did you polish that apple? It looks immaculate!
great video, but more importantly what type of apple is that it looks delicious
Red Delicious apples, of course.
This breed/brand was an Eve, which... Makes sense.
Is the age of the Prince ever mentioned? If not, I'm gonna choose to believe he's also a child. Makes the whole thing ever so slightly less disturbing.
More DnD videos!!!
More Faerie Daels!!
Pale skin and black hair?
Snow white was the original goth gf.
