Long Live The Queen|| Short Dark Retelling.

Fairytales were never what they seemed to us. The evil queen was never evil. Snow White never had a happy ending. Rapunzel was never imprisoned in a tower. Ella and Aurora never lived to have sweet families.

__________

Snow White has sworn vengeance on all of mankind. Serve her, and you live. Defy her, and suffer a horrendous death. The little fair maiden everyone loved and adored, never existed. The wrath of the Ice Queen was known far and wide.

But the curse of a common man, can change everything. A curse doesn't have to be magical. Pure hatred, with a pinch of pain and sorrow, a few words, and you have a curse.

Long Live The Queen.
