Evie's voice is so crisp and sweet that every day she opens her mouth to sing. All the birds will stop and listen quietly.

One day, when the king was out hunting and rode past the vineyard, he heard Evie's moving song and was deeply intoxicated. He followed the song and found that she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. He immediately decided to marry Evie as his bride. The king ordered the guard to take Evie back to the castle. In order to prevent John from retaliating, he also took John back to the castle.

The king locked Evie on the tower on the west side of the castle and imprisoned John in the tower on the east side. Although Ivy refused to be the queen of the overbearing king, the king's orders could not be changed. he ordered that a royal wedding would be held the day after tomorrow, and on the same day, John would be hanged.

A kind-hearted girl secretly told the news to Evie. Evie cried alone on the tower all night, anxious, scared and sad. When the sun rose again in the east, she looked at the east tower surrounded by the golden sun and sang softly as ever. The morning was quiet, and the song passed through the castle and floated into John's ear. Although Evie's voice was soft and thin. But it was as loud as thunder in John's ear. Evie sang firmly: even if I die, I will not leave you.
