We actually agreed in TRS that this example is valid.

Added DiffLines:

* FairyGodmother: Baby Gest is visited by three norns who make wishes for his life; two of them make good wishes but one [[FairyDevilmother curses him]]. The set-up is very similar to that of "Sleeping Beauty", and the "norns" are functionally Fairy Godmothers. Like in "Sleeping Beauty", they do not return after they made their initial good wishes.

* FairyGodmother: The good norns are more or less fairy godmothers. The story of how Norna-Gest gained immortality is indeed practically identical to the beginning of "Literature/SleepingBeauty".
