This is Part IV of my flabbergastingly-insanely-inconveniently-long interpretation of the already far-too-long story (The Two Brothers) I was assigned for BeccaJS' epic writing-jam: The Gender Transformed Fairy Tales Challenge. (The story link contains spoilers, since I stayed fairly true to the whole thing.)
It's been a heck of a ride. I'm surprised how much enjoyment I got, and creativity I could put into a retelling. Huge thanks to BeccaJS for the idea and the opportunity!
