Spell Borne by Auden Llyr
Some curses start with “Once upon a time…”
I thought this semester would be easy – just my thesis and attending some seminars in Lointaine. And who doesn’t love spending time in an enchanting, small town?
But it turns out Lointaine is straight out of a fairy tale, quite literally, and the spell affecting the town is determined to turn me into a princess. You know, the kind that gets chased by murderous huntsmen, assaulted in their sleep, or cleans up after stepsisters… Not my idea of a great time.
However, according to the resident expert, trying to avoid my fairy tale is dangerous. I can’t take that risk since I’m already in a bit of trouble with the police.
I’m not sure I have it in me to fight my professors, the police, and magic spells, but if I don’t I’ll be letting go of my own dreams for my future. Is there any path through this grim tale that leads to a happily ever after?
