[This story is sort of like an AU (Alternate Universe) where characters (From the Tangled Series) take on the roles of the original characters from the book "The Boy with the Cuckoo-Clock Heart" along with the movie (on Netflix, if you're curious) "Jack and the Cuckoo-Clock heart." The themes, storyline, and original ideas belong to the French genius-and singer-Mathias Malzieu. I will shake some things up in this story, obviously because I'm using different characters and I don't want it to be a complete carbon copy of the original material. Anyways, enjoy the story!]
The setting is Edinburgh, 1874, during one of the coldest days on Earth. Little baby Varian-born with a frozen heart-was saved by his father, Quirin, by stitching and sewing a small cuckoo onto his chest. As Varian grew older and more curious, Quirin had established strict rules as to not lose his precious son. They are three simple rules: Never touch the hands of your heart, keep your temper under control, and lastly-but most importantly-never fall in love. Of course, as the story goes, Varian manages to break every single rule all because of one tantalizing flamenco: Little Miss [F/N]. Will love truly be fatal for the little cuckoo-boy?
A Cassarian Story
Varian always knew that he cared for Cassandra. But he didn't realize how much until she was gone.
Six long years after Cassandra leaves Corona, she finally returns. Varian is overjoyed, but she comes bearing terrible news. A strange dome has encased the Dark Kingdom, trapping its residents within... including Varian's father, Quirin.
Traveling with Cassandra, and her unusual accomplice Abhu, to the Dark Kingdom, Varian plans on investigating the dome and freeing his father. But they discover that a terrifying creature there is the source. Nothing is known about this being dubbed the Angst. All hope seems lost, until a journal that once belonged to Abhu's long-lost father sets them off on a whirlwind journey to collect four special orbs in different locations. The goal? Uncovering an ancient mystical cavern that could show them how to defeat the Angst.
Will they succeed? Can they work together? Will Cassandra ever reciprocate the love Varian feels for her?
All of Infinity lies before them...
