"Come with me and be my wife." Those are the magic words girls want to hear right? But what if those words aren't from a man who strikes you as the one? "The incidents in the woods are just getting worse. It's a monster I tell you." "What if it's the Fey come for revenge?" "His body was ripped to pieces." "Why is winter not stopping." ... Giséle hears many things on the streets. She may have the answer to some, but her answers may bring more questions. It's best to keep out of trouble right? Gisèle doesn't want to be a side character. She wants her own tale of happiness and love, but that doesn't seem to be written in her book of fate. "Then I'll change it! I'll change it all. I will get my happy ending!" But sometimes she wishes it would all just disappear or the world would stand still. "I can grant your wish, my dear, but you'll have to come to the Underground."

Chapter 1: Mon Conte de Netvor

Act 1

"Have you ever heard of Netvor?"

"Netvor?"

"Yes Netvor."

"What's a Netvor?"

"No. I've never heard of anything called Netvor."

"I didn't think so. Now listen."

A long time ago, deep in the forest. There lived the Fey. Wondrous creatures of nature, and their beauty was unparalleled. One day, a young girl stumbled into their world and fell in love with the most beautiful Fey of all.

"Was she beautiful?"

"She was very beautiful. The queen of her town. Now may I continue?"

"Yes, yes of course."

This young girl was devoted to her love. She brought him chocolates and flowers. Dazzling pearls and twinkling rubies, but he scorned her. He disliked her and told her to leave.

"That's mean!"

"Indeed it is."

The young girl ran deep into the wood. While there she met a witch of the wood and told her tale. The witch gave her a potion and said he could only be with her if he drunk it. The girl ran back overjoyed and asked him for one goodbye drink. He accepted and she watched as feathers sprouted from his back and his mouth elongated into a beak like orifice . The beautiful fairy was gone and only a monster was left.

"Oh that's horrible!"

"Then what happened!"

The creature nurtured hate in his heart. He declared revenge on the young girl and all like her. So if you meet a man who doesn't look quite right. His mouth protrudes just the wrong way. Think you see a feather on his wrist. Run away young girl for only danger awaits.

"Bed!"

"Aww!"

"But mama?"

"Yes Giséle?"

"What about Netvor?"

"Ah. We call the creature the Fey became Netvor."
