00:00This is the real life Cinderella, not the one with glass slippers. The real one lived in 1843. Her name was Ella, and she was sold to a nobleman who believed obedience was beauty. He made her sleep by the ashes and called her Cinder, said her feet were too soft, so one day he gave her a gift, a pair of shoes carved from real bone.
00:24The first time she wore them, she screamed, blood soaking through the soles. But the nobleman smiled, said they fit perfectly. Every night he made her dance across stone floors, step after step, until her feet tore open. She cried, but he only watched. When she collapsed, he locked her in the tower.
00:47No one asked where the servant Go had gone. Years later, someone found the room. Inside there were bones, still shaped like feet, still wearing the slippers. The nobleman denied everything, said she ran away.
01:02But the evidence told a different story. A girl in a torn dress, holding one bone shoe, and behind her, the nobleman, watching.
