Have you ever read a fairy tale, and wished it was a little darker? Maybe a little bit more, I don't know, gritty? Passionate? Dare I say...not so Disney? 

It could be I just have a very dark imagination, but my princes aren't perfect. Not in the traditional sense at least. They're fighters and they're thieves; some make deals with the devil and some are devilish and some are alone with twelve dancing wives and not a single one to love. There are dainty fainting princesses, and princesses who know how to hold a sword better than most princes, and maybe a few princesses who aren't princesses at all. Witches, queens, evil and good, I wanted to tread the boundaries between myth and fantasy. Sometimes right is wrong and wrong is the only way to survive. 

Take the journey with me. Maybe Cinderella doesn't deserve a prince. Or perhaps Rumpelstiltskin had no other choice a long, long time ago, or is it just...
