In the heart of Castle Aanca, the museum of Fables and future sciences, stories become a lot more lively. Prince Alfil, the leading hero in his Fable, is one of the most popular exhibits in the museum being the spitting image of every little girl's dream prince...if he could manage to stay in the same room with one for more than five seconds.
With pressure of being shut down by a major laboratory when they come with an experiment of their own, the director of museum hastily introduces the new additions. However, when mysterious incidents begin affecting the other Fables, Alfil brings it upon his self to find the truth. But with a fear that makes it impossible to interact with his fellow Fables, let alone fans, can Alfil save his home--or be ERASED forever?
