The story begins when she decides to run away, as a young child, to join a magical circus, where acrobats can make objects float, a wizard can control all elements of Earth enchanting the audience with the most heartwarming story, and fairy-tale creatures amaze each child that comes to watch. As she grew, she learned to master the art of flying, becoming the most recognized aerialist in the world, that not only can master the air, but also use stardust in order to charm any person eager to see her show. But there is one magic she had not yet felt, and that is the mysterious power that true love can offer. While the circus reaches a small city in northern Italy, the fortuneteller of the Stardust Circus reveals that she will find her true love right there, but that it would not be an easy adventure for her.

Morrigan didn't develop all of her knowledge for her world at once. It came in pieces starting from when she was very young. She didn't just have the memories of one timeline or plot in her head. She had many. As if she'd live a thousand lives at once. The hard part was discerning which world this would be. She didn't want to do random research. She wanted to be surprised. Her current world was a Dual World, meaning it had people known in different television series, movies, or books. This world wasn't just witches, vampires, and werewolves. There were also Magicians along with everything they came with.
