Theme is the author's central point and in this story, the reader has to decide whether love is stronger than jealousy. If theme can be a question, that is what I think it would be in this story. The story doesn't answer the question directly, but the author does refer to the princess as "semi-barbaric," making me think she sends the young man to his death. In that case the theme might be that jealousy is a stronger emotion than love. Of course this could just be my jaded thinking.
