There was quite a long time ago a man and his significant other, and they had no youngsters, which was an extraordinary pain to them. One winter's day, when the sun was sparkling splendidly, the couple were remaining outside their house, and the lady was taking a gander at every one of the little icicles that swung from the rooftop. She moaned, and going to her better half, she said, 'I wish I had however many kids as there are icicles hanging there.' 'Nothing would satisfy me all the more either,' answered her significant other. Then, at that point, a small icicle separated itself from the rooftop and dropped into the lady's mouth, who gulped it with a grin and said, 'Maybe I will bring forth a snow kid now!' Her significant other snickered at his better half's bizarre thought, and they returned to the house.

In any case, before long the lady brought forth a young lady, who was essentially very white and downright frigid. In the event that they brought the kid remotely close to the fire, it shouted uproariously till they set it back in some cool spot. The little servant grew superbly, and in a couple of months she could run about and talk. However, she was not completely simple to raise and gave her folks much difficulty and nervousness. For the entire summer, she demanded spending time in the basement, and in the colder time of year, she would rest outside in the snow, and the colder it was, the more joyful she was by all accounts. Her dad and mom called her just 'Our Snow Girl,' and this name stuck with her for her entire life.

On one occasion, her folks sat by the fire, talking over the phenomenal way their little girl was behaving, who was disporting herself in the blizzard that seethed outside. The lady murmured profoundly and said, 'I wish I had brought forth a Fire-child!' As she said these words, a flash from the huge wood fire flew into the lady's lap, and she said with a giggle, 'Presently, maybe I will bring forth a Fire-child!' The man chuckled at his better half's words and thought it was a decent joke. Be that as it may, he stopped thinking it a joke when his significant other in no time subsequently brought forth a kid, who shouted robustly till he was put very near the fire and who almost hollered himself into a fit in the event that the Snow-little girl came around him. The Snow Girl herself stayed away from him however much she could and generally crawled into a corner as far from him as could really be expected. The guardians called the kid just 'Our Firechild,' a name that stuck with him for his entire life. They had a difficult situation and stress with him as well; however, he thrived and developed rapidly, and before he was a year old, he could run about and talk. He was pretty much as red as fire and as hot to contact, and he generally sat on the hearth very near the fire and whined of the cold; on the off chance that his sister were in the room, he nearly crawled into the blazes, while the young lady on her part generally grumbled of the extraordinary intensity in the event that her sibling were remotely close. In summer, the kid generally spread out in the sun, while the young lady concealed herself in the basement. So it happened that the siblings came very little into contact with one another—aas a matter of fact, they painstakingly stayed away from it. Similarly, as the young lady grew up into a wonderful lady, her dad and mom both passed on in a steady progression. Then, at that point, the firechild, who had experienced childhood while growing into a fine, solid young fellow, told his sister, 'I'm going out into the world, for what is the utilization of staying on here?'

'I will go with you,' she dealt with; 'aside from you, I have nobody on the planet, and I have an inclination that assuming we set out together, we will be fortunate.'

The Fire-Child said, 'I love you with everything that is in me, and yet I generally hold up assuming you are close to me, and you almost pass on from heat on the off chance that I approach you! How might we travel about together without being terrible from one to the next?' 'Don't stress over that,' answered the young lady, 'for I've thoroughly considered everything and have chosen an arrangement that will make us each ready to hold on for the other! Obviously, I have had a fur shroud made for every one of us, and in the event that we put them on, I will not experience the intensity so much nor will you the cold.' So they put on the fur shrouds and set out merrily, without precedent for their lives, very cheerful in one another's organization. From now onward, indefinitely, for quite a while, the Fire-child and the Snow-girl meandered through the world, and when, toward the start of winter, they came to a major not set in stone to remain there till spring, The Fire-child fabricated himself a cottage where he generally kept up a gigantic fire, while his sister, with not many garments on, remained external evening and day. Presently, it happened one day that the Ruler of the Land held a chase in this wood and saw the Snow Girl meandering about in the outdoors. He pondered a lot about who the delightful young lady clad in such pieces of clothing could be, and he halted and addressed her. He soon discovered that she was unable to stand intensity and that her sibling couldn't persevere through the cold. The Ruler was so enchanted by the Snow Girl that he requested that she be his significant other. The young lady agreed, and the wedding was held with much pomp. The Ruler had an enormous place of ice made for his better half underground, so that even in summer it didn't liquefy. In any case, for his brother by marriage, he had a house with gigantic broilers surrounding it that were kept constantly warmed. The firechild was glad; however, the never-ending heat in which he lived made his body so hot that going excessively near him was hazardous.

On one occasion, the Lord gave an extraordinary blowout and asked his brother by marriage among different visitors. The fire child didn't show up till everybody had gathered, and when he did, everybody escaped outside to the outdoors, so extreme was the intensity he gave forward. Then, at that point, the Lord was extremely furious and said, 'On the off chance that I had understood what a difficult situation you would have been, I couldn't have ever brought you into my home.' Then, at that point, the firechild answered with a giggle, 'Don't be furious, dear sibling! I love heat and my sister loves cold — come here and let me embrace you, and afterward I'll return home without a moment's delay.' And before he had the opportunity and energy to answer, the firechild held onto him in a warm hug. The Ruler shouted resoundingly in misery, and when his significant other, the Snow-girl, who had taken shelter from her sibling in the following room, rushed to him, the Lord lay dead on the ground, consumed by ash. At the point when the Snow-little girl saw this, she turned on her sibling and flew at him. Then, at that point, a battle started, the likes of which had never been seen on the planet. At the point when individuals, pulled in by the clamor, rushed to the spot, they saw the snow girl dissolving into water and the fire child consuming to soot. Thus finished the despondent siblings.
