No one knew what had happened that fateful night when the royal castle disappeared. After long fruitless searching, the king and his guests were presumed dead. Some speculated they were attacked, or perhaps it was divine punishment for their gluttony and greed. With every conspiracy there was someone in need of blame. Over suspicions and inheritance disputes, wars were inevitable, and the kingdom broke apart. Then there was the rot. ((A beauty and the beast inspired story. I watched the french movie, La Belle Et La Bete, and really got inspired from the visuals. Such a beautiful movie. I hope you like my version of this story.))
