Template:Fairytale The Ballad of Mulan (木蘭辭 Mùlán Tzú), frequently shortened to Mulan, is an ancient Chinese poem in Southern and Northern Dynasties, detailing the story of Huā Mùlán (花木蘭). It was partially adapted for the second season of ABC's Once Upon a Time.
Traditional Plot
During a time of war in China, a young woman named Hua Mulan sees that her father has been conscripted into the army. Having no older brothers, she decides to dress as a man and goes to war in his place. She spends more than 10 years fighting alongside other male soldiers. Later, the emperor offers her a government post, but she turns it down saying that she would prefer to return home and see her family. At the end of the poem, Mulan finally reveals her female identity to her army comrades, who are shocked to see her as a woman.
Show Adaptation
- Mulan traveled with Prince Phillip to find Aurora.
- While Mulan is a historical character the writers have stated that the Mulan on the show is from a fictionalized world.[citation needed]
