Ivan's Grandfather

Ivan's grandfather was a wealthy man with a long white beard. He was a kind and generous man, but he was also very strict with his grandson. Ivan's grandfather believed that the only way to succeed in life was to work hard and never give up. He taught Ivan this lesson by telling him stories about The Devil's Temptation. One day, Ivan's grandfather told him the story of a young man who was walking through the forest when he came across a beautiful woman. The woman was dressed in a white gown and had long flowing hair. She was the most beautiful woman Ivan's grandfather had ever seen. The woman told the young man that she was a princess and that she was lost. She asked the young man to help her find her way home. The young man agreed to help her, and they set off together. As they walked, the woman told the young man stories about her life. She told him about her family and her kingdom. She told him about her adventures and her dreams. The young man was captivated by her stories. He fell in love with her. One day, the woman told the young man that she had to leave. She said that she had to return to her kingdom.
