    "description": "Once upon a time, there was a wicked fairy who cursed a line of princesses to die, and could only be broken by true love's kiss. You've heard this before, haven't you? The handsome prince. The happily-ever-after.\n\nUtter nonsense.\n\nLet me tell you, no one actually cares about what happens to our princesses. I thought I didn't care, either. Until I met her.\n\nPrincess Aurora. The last heir to the throne. The future queen her realm needs. One who isn't bothered that I am the Dark Grace, abhorred and feared for the mysterious dark magic that runs in my veins. Aurora says I should be proud of my gifts. That she . . . cares for me. Even though it was a power like mine that was responsible for her curse.\n\nBut with less than a year until that curse will kill her, any future I might see with Aurora is swiftly disintegrating - and she can't stand to kiss yet another insipid prince. I want to help her. If my power began her curse, perhaps it's what can lift it. Perhaps, together, we could forge a new world.\n\nNonsense again. Because we all know how this story ends, don't we? Aurora is the beautiful princess. And I-\n\nI am the villain.",
