the story:

Cinderella grew up being abused by her stepmother and stepsisters, even when the prince threw a ball in order to find himself a wife, Cinderella was to help her stepsisters get ready, as she was not allowed to go. After they had gone to the ball, Cinderella made a wish to a fairy, and was granted a beautiful dress and slippers. The prince was immediately in love when he saw Cinderella, but she got away on the first night and was nowhere to be found. This repeated the second night, but the third night the prince had set a trap. The stairs were smeared with pitch, and the slipper stuck to it as Cinderella left.

The prince set out to search whoever fit the slipper, and arrived at the house where Cinderella lived, though her sisters got to try the slipper first. The fist sister could not get her toes in, so she cut one of her toes on, but the blood in the slipper was noticed. The second sister could get her toes in, but her heel was too big, so she cut off her heel and again the blood gave away the attempt to cheat. When Cinderella tried it on, the slipper fit perfectly.

the final part is what the puzzle is based on, the bleeding toe of the first sister
