Little Miss Goldilocks

She laughs—naively, sweetly, cruelly—at the idea of troubles. Her innocence charms even the most gruff, grizzled warrior.

Doesn't she realise that only she has the kisses of Fate and Fortune upon her forehead?

How fascinating it is to watch her:

gracefully intruding upon the keeping of someone's heart
gently clawing the heart into pieces and trying them on for size
blushing prettily when she wakes up and realises what she's done.

And most of all, to see the brilliance of her golden halo as she waltzes her way through the dangerous woods, in search of yet another cottage.
