Old Rus Tales

Vasilisa is likely a retelling of the Russian fairy tale 'Vasilisa the Beautiful.' In the traditional story, a young girl named Vasilisa is sent by her cruel stepmother to fetch light from the fearsome witch Baba Yaga. Armed with a magical doll given to her by her deceased mother, Vasilisa braves the witch's challenges and earns the light, which ultimately leads to the downfall of her wicked stepmother and stepsisters. Along her journey, Vasilisa's kindness, courage, and resourcefulness are tested, but with the help of her doll, she overcomes all obstacles. The tale often concludes with Vasilisa marrying a prince, becoming a queen, and living happily ever after.
