Illustration for the scene “The wicked magician's mirror”

Scene 1 · Beginner

Ο καθρέφτης του κακού μάγου

The wicked magician's mirror

Greek

Μια φορά κι έναν καιρό, ένας πολύ κακός μάγος έφτιαξε έναν παράξενο καθρέφτη. Μέσα του, τα καλά και όμορφα πράγματα φαίνονταν μικρά και ασήμαντα. Τα άσχημα πράγματα όμως φαίνονταν πολύ μεγαλύτερα και χειρότερα.

English translation

Once upon a time, a very wicked magician made a strange mirror. In it, good and beautiful things looked small and unimportant. Ugly things, however, looked much bigger and worse.

Greek

Ακόμα και οι πιο όμορφοι άνθρωποι έμοιαζαν τόσο διαφορετικοί, που οι φίλοι τους δεν μπορούσαν να τους γνωρίσουν. Μια μικρή φακίδα φαινόταν να σκεπάζει όλο το πρόσωπο. Ο μάγος γελούσε ευχαριστημένος με όλα αυτά.

English translation

Even the most beautiful people looked so different that their friends could not recognize them. A small freckle seemed to cover the whole face. The magician laughed, pleased with it all.

Greek

Οι μαθητές του μιλούσαν παντού για τον καθρέφτη. Έλεγαν πως έδειχνε τον κόσμο όπως ήταν πραγματικά.

English translation

His pupils talked about the mirror everywhere. They said it showed the world as it really was.
