Bedlam
Once upon a time, there lived a beautiful princess, locked away in a tower, under a spell cast by an evil witch. She waits for her one true love to rescue her. But as the years have gone by and hundred of knights have died, she wonders if she shall ever be saved. Truly, she may be locked away forever, as she is gay and female knights are in incredibly short supply.
The exact same a time, there lived an unkempt (could be beautiful if she put in some effort) princess who couldn’t get out of bed. Boils in her brain and vicious unkind voices in her mind kept her from sleep, and made living a never-ending pain. Perhaps this Princess may be saved if she had access to a universal mental health care system and a skilled therapist who could help diagnose her with Bipolar 2.
Slightly closer to upon that time, there were two attractive siblings who could not stop fucking. They fucked in their garden. They fucked on the stairs. They fucked during Church and they fucked on the stairs again. Maybe one of them had a stair fetish.
Hit me baby once more time, there was an evil Queen who wasn’t really that evil: she just had good business acumen and no time for toxic men. Alas, most kingdoms have a glass ceiling that can only be shattered by the decapitated heads of one’s enemies.
An orgasmic prophetic dream, a war between families and the secret of the most skilled knight in the realm shall bring these characters together in a musical fairytale of revenge, love and incest.
