a princess.
a young maiden who is born to marry a young and handsome prince against her will for her country.
or, a fairy tale icon who means nothing after she finds her "true love" prince and marries him.
a princess? no.
i'm not that kind of princess.
my name is Avis, and i'm not your average fairytale princess.

exerpt from ch.1;
" From the day I was born to my sixth birthday I listened to all of their stories; Every tale of every princess who solely wished for her true love to come and save her from her "awful" life. When he, usually a rich prince in shining armor, did come, her story would end. This similarity always angered me, even from that very young age.
Why would Cinderella wish for a prince when she could wish to have her evil mother and stepsisters disappear? Why wouldn't Rapunzel just let herself down using her hair and make a grand life for herself? Why wouldn't Snow White wish for a woodsman, or for the evil queen to simply forget her?"
