The mirror that hung upon the wall is the reason she's the fairest of them all.
At least that's how the rumour goes.
Herz Grimhilde was a millers daughter. She was a nobody. Until she became a somebody. After a certain King stumbles upon Herz he instantly falls in love with her and her, him. Everything seemed perfect.
But if course it wasn't. It just so happened that the haunting voices that Herz believed were in her head, was actually coming from her own reflection.

Once Upon a Time: EDITING
What if Cinderella were a mechanic? What if Snow-White were ugly? What if Rapunzel ran away on her own and became a magician? What if The Little Mermaid were originally human? This book contains a collection of twisted fairytales. So twisted are they that they almost reverse the original telling. No more waiting for Prince Charming! No sir, these princesses take their fates into their sensible and capable hands. Enjoy! ~ Nylara Note: The plot ideas are mine but some of the fairytales are loosely based on ones I've read but have not been entirely satisfied by or just wanted to revisit. Mechanica is based on the book "Mechanica", Blanche on "Mirror Mirror" the movie, Rebbecca is mine, Sapphire is based on the Ingo Series by Helen Dunmore and Freya is loosely based on "The Woodcutter's Daughter" and "East of Sun, West of Moon". Hope you enjoy!!!

But her love's eyes are set on another, leaving Rapunzel no other choice but murder. And then there's Vanessa, a small-town girl from a kingdom free of magic. She only wants to find her missing grandmother, but she left nothing except a cryptic note on a strange map.

Her only comfort comes from the apothecary-who offers the young queen an opportunity to cultivate her magic and a plan to secure her future.
