The Magic Kingdom
Sept 22, 2022
In theory, Crown Prince Henry of Charmante would make a decent king. He isn’t well-liked, and the kingdom doesn’t know how to think of him. He’s made mistakes, but he’s learned from them. All he needs is a chance to prove it, but the Enchanted Forest refuses to let Henry go on his Quests. It’s not common knowledge, and he’s mostly keeping that information between himself and a few castle staff. Even the King and Queen don’t know.
When a beanstalk mysteriously starts growing in the middle of a vital river and throws the kingdom into a drought, he’s finally allowed to leave. There’s only one option: Henry has to climb the magic beanstalk.
Princess Jaclynn of Oben is trapped. Disguised as a boy named ‘Jack,’ she is forced into hiding by a giant infestation and a spell preventing her from getting the one thing needed to take back her kingdom: a sword dubbed “Giant Killer.”
When Henry arrives in Oben, Jack and her foster brothers feel hope for the first time in years. Will he be able to retrieve the sword? Will ‘Jack’ be able to save her kingdom? Or does a traitor have other plans?

The Swan Princess

An Evil Enchantress and her son, Dalbert create chaos by interrupting a Roschen Royal Family meal. Two broken statues, a swan, and six geese remain in the wreckage left behind.
To keep her safe, Crown Princess Aurora is escorted by her brother, who was spared the curse because he arrived late, to the original Sleeping Beauty Tower and lake. There, Aurora is left under the protection of Parker, a Huntsman cursed to be a dragon.
By day, Aurora and Parker are trapped in their cursed forms. Under the moonlight, they spend their limited time in human form trying to figure out how to break their respective curses. As they unravel what they need to do, they realize that a dark force is lurking in the shadows.
Dalbert finds his family plans falling apart when he can’t communicate with them. Not knowing how else to fix it, he decides to do the one thing he can: remove Crown Princess Aurora from the equation. With time running out and no other options available to him, he sets off to prevent the curse from being broken.
Will Evil win out this time? Will Good defeat Evil? Will Aurora and Parker remain a swan and a dragon for the remainder of their cursed lives, or can they find a way to break their curses in time?
