In a land of magic, three unlucky princesses were longing for love.
The golden-haired princess suffered from a mysterious illness; she rarely saw anyone outside of the royal apartments.
The dark-haired princess nursed a broken heart, for a dastardly lord had left her at the altar, seven years hence.
And the red-haired princess, the heir herself, simply did not fall in love - at least, not in the way that many people do…
So when the fabled Two-horned Unicorn was sighted, out in the Whispering Woods, they had to meet it.
If you did, you see, it would bring good fortune.
