This is another world, a world in which fairy tales exist, although not exactly as we remember them. Sometimes they come together in the most convoluted of ways. We begin with Cinderella who, upon attending the ball, instead of falling for one of the two handsome princes that occupy the castle, discovers that the King himself is an impostor. She must now work alongside the younger of the two princes, a snarky, rude youth named Prince Alec, and wind her way through various other fairy tales in order to find a way to prove the identity of the false king and find the real one.
