Fairytales

Whimsical stories of imaginary worlds and/or beings intended for children. More often than not they contain lessons. Be kind. Be cautious. Don't talk to strangers. Many children were told fairytales to be put to sleep. They would dream about being in these worlds and meeting these characters. But where do they come from?

There is a world, not many know about. A brilliant and interesting world to explore. It is perfectly safe if you know what you are doing and don't break the rules. Otherwise, it is dangerous and can lead to insanity. 

Rule Number 1: You can only enter the world at 11:11 am or pm. Never enter if that is not the time. The Inbetween can be a dangerous place.

Rule Number 2: You may only speak to the golden sphynx in front of the doors. If anyone else approaches you, ignore them and walk away. The creatures of this world are terribly dangerous. 

Rule Number 3: Time is irregular in this world. The days and nights are uneven. Just remember, leave before night. As soon as it gets even slightly dark you are advised to leave.

Rule number 4: Do not follow the trail of breadcrumbs. Hansel and Gretel aren't as nice as they are in the story. 

Rule Number 5: The most important rule. If you wish to become the ruler you simply ask the one sitting on the Large Throne. But be warned as soon as you sit on the Large Throne you will be bound to this world until another comes to take your place. The ruler before you would replace you. It's not as terrible as it sounds. You would be immortal and no longer fear the creatures who inhabit your world because you would become even more powerful than them. 

Do not be afraid of this world. It is endless with many places to explore. The flowers smell lovely (but they might try to eat you), the world is quiet (except for the voices in your head), and you will never die in this world (but there are things worse than death. 

Enjoy your stay and be cautious not to break the rules.
