A charming illustration by Mabel Lucie Attwell, of Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tale, The Wild Swans. The story of a plucky, resourceful princess who saves her 11 brothers who have been turned into swans by a spell cast by their wicked stepmother.
Reason I believe so
1) Genshin made use of Andersen's story before with the Tinman in Scara's trailer

"That poor little ugly duckling
Went wandering far and near
But at every place they said to his face

"The Snowman" by Hans Christian Andersen—a tale of a snowman falling in love with a stove—is believed to be inspired by the author's two-year love affair with ballet dancer Harald Scharff. Andersen's attempts to rekindle the relationship were unsuccessful. #FairyTaleTuesday
Hans Christian Andersen was bullied for his looks as a child, & speculated to be an illegitimate son of a prince. These factors are believed to have inspired "The Ugly Duckling," a tale in which a duckling deemed ugly discovers he's been a swan the whole time. #FairyTaleTuesday

"There are piggies who are GLAM,
there are piggies who are DRAM,
there are piggies who simply are TRAGICAL.
But of all the piggies in The Piggy Universe -
Luna - The Moon Pig is most MAGICAL!"
