thanks for the comment. Rereading this story, honestly I think it's a bit crappy. If i ever did anything with it, I'd really have to pull a lot of work when writing the first half of the story.

as for not aging? That's a fairy tale fact that gets used in all the original versions. It's a fairy tale. Those kinds of slips of logic are normal. Time should shift from original time setting to modern world without needing to follow logic because it's a story that's making a point.
