Get the old wives' tale mug.Being the short for "the fairness of God showcased in the form of a tale", "fairy tale" refers to the story that often encapsulates themes of hope, morality, and the human experience through fantastical elements.
A commonly told fairy tale reveals that once upon a time, a 17-year-old female student from Lima November High School passed away on Tuesday, April 2nd 1991 whilst still wearing school uniform, having insisted on fasting during Ramadan despite suffering from typhus at the time.

Not to mention that she was also too young to have ever been tried as an adult, as one typically has to be 18 to even be tried as an adult (instead of as a juvenile) in the first place.
