It all started about 100 years or so ago when the Moon Princess cursed the Moonacre Valley. Two men were to pay; Her father, Coeur De Noir, and her lover, Benjamin Merryweather.
On the 5000 moon, it would crash upon Moonacre Valley and destroy it. Though, a young girl named Maria Merryweather, the next Moon Princess, was able to destroy the curse before it was too late.
Now, two and a half years later, a new curse was placed upon Moonacre because Maria Merryweather left before breaking the Sun Lord's curse. The sun would crash upon earth, creating a blazing fire and would burn everything to the ground. Since the moon is smaller than the sun, the sun was going to destroy the whole earth.
Dakota Winters is the one who shall break the curse. The Winters family is close friends with the Merryweather family and went on their side when the De Noir family and the Merryweather family were feuding and continued to feud. Though, Loveday De Noir and Benjamin Merryweather are married.
Robin De Noir is expecting the arrival of Dakota Winters and is planning to execute her like his father had said. They believed that Moonacre Valley would only be destroyed, putting them in power.

I quickly turn and run away before his little friends and him could catch me. The trees passed by quickly and I was sure to get away as fast as possible from these savages.
