EAH Rewrite Intro

EAH rewrite intro

sooo, I've been thinking about how the world of ever after is really messed up so instead of, I dunno, sitting here and enjoying my tea and a show that's about 12 year old, I'm trying to rewrite parts of it (at least parts of the worldbuilding)

PART 1

Gather round and let us tell you a tale of the world of Ever After and our part in the paths of our beloved characters.

Long before EAH was established, two great magic wielders called the brother Grimm, Jacob and Wilhelm, saw a glimpse into our world aka the readers world (see book 3 Shannon hale ch. 24) the brothers thought we were gods so tried to make a connection to us. through trial and error they made the storybook of legends but it wasn't what they wanted. it told them past present and future and every reality in between. discouraged they gave up and made a school to help kids control their magic abilities. but it wouldn't stay that way.

PART 2

while the school was being built Jacob got married and had kids. the older brother, Giles, was more quiet and reserved compared to his younger brother Milton. they grew up going to the school and apprenticing under their uncle and dad. they knew about the Book but were told that they couldn't see it till they were older, but Milton being the curious and energetic 16yo he was sneaked a peak aaaand instantly regretted it. it showed him very horrible reality with wars death and famine. there were good ones but the bad ones had a hold on him and he was determined to find a way to stop it.

"my great plan to stop bad things

get all the trust from dad and uncle so the give the school to me

find a spell to pull people towards a safe reality

wait till dad and uncle cant stop me

implement

live happily ever after"

PART 3

it went exactly according to plan except step 4. he found and edited a spell that was like a subtle mind control that got more extreme over time, but when he cast it, the spell wasn't strong enough. where the pull should have been like a heavy chain on a chihuahua it was more like a piece of yarn on a Doberman. Milton only knew one person who could cast the spell. Giles. he had been traveling around learning all sorts of magic. Milton sent him a message asking for help casting a protection spell and Giles, happy to hear from his brother who hadn't been responding to his letters, readily agreed. he got there and Milton and him cast the spell. Milton claimed that part of the spell they had to sign the book. unbeknownst to Giles, Milton didn't actually sign it. Giles was now tied to the book. Milton practically shoved him out the door so Giles left and ever after high started with its first year of students.

ps. the rest will be on my other blog specifically for EAH
