The Mastery of Death

The Tales of Beedle the Bard as a book has been around for a very long time. Some stories added here and there, others removed eventually to make room for more. There are few that have been included in every version and print that has been produced. However, one in particular has, without fail, been included in every single copy, translation, or reproduction. The Tale of the Three Brothers. Being predominately a children's book, most don't truly notice any small differences that add up over time. Different languages have slightly different meanings of certain words. Different scribes may paraphrase a sentence or paragraph a slightly different way. After all - it's only a children's book. As time passed and the original wording of the story fell out of memory so too did the warning that came with it.
