Rhodopis is a Greek girl who is kidnapped by pirates and sold into slavery in Egypt. While working as a slave, she attends a festival where her slipper is carried off by a falcon and brought to the Egyptian king. The king declares he will marry whoever fits the slipper. When the king finds Rhodopis and she tries on the slipper, it fits perfectly. The king then marries Rhodopis and makes her the new queen, living happily ever after.
