Years after the events of the First Story, Fakir sees an eerie dream of Princess Tutu dancing on a lake, and is soon after confronted by a Shadow in his heart, offering to fulfil his long-standing desires, and realise his potential as a Descendant to Drosselmeyer.
Fakir, wanting to speak to Ahiru again, and tempted by the Shadow's promise to make her human for good, as well as the possibility of a happy ending, writes a story to set a series of events in motion; events that are meant to guide Fakir and Ahiru closer.
The price of the wish is a shard of a heart, and the effect, much longer reaching than Fakir hoped, as some students of Gold Crown Town Academy, as well as Mytho and Rue, who reside far in the capital, and other old characters still living in town, are all cast again in roles intended for them by the Blood of Drosselmeyer.

Aurelia always felt as though she didn't quite fit in. Ever since she was a child her parents despised her. They never showed an ounce of love or interest towards her instead they directed all that love and interest on to her sister aka the golden child.
But that wasn't the only reason Aurelia didn't fit in. You see Aurelia held a secret close to her chest. Even since her sixteenth birthday strange things began happening to her. Weird visions, nightmares and unexplainable paranormal events were occuring around her. Was this all real or just in her imagination?
On Aurelia's eighteenth birthday she'd finally had enough of her insufferable family. She packed up her belongings and ran away. Away from the life she'd always known and away from the iniquitous people she'd to call mum and dad her whole life. Instead she ran towards a new life and new beginning. It was on this journey that she met him. Tristan Hawthorne. The person who held the answer to all her questions. Aurelia would soon discover not everything is as it seems and nor is she.
She in fact belongs in a different world completely, a land named Iridisan. A land full of magic, mythical creatures and beauty.
This new world offers many opportunities but this word also contains trials and challenges. With dark forces conspiring against her and individuals plotting her demise how will she know who to trust and how to remain on top.
This is a tale of love and betrayal, be careful who you choose to trust.
