Tamsyn Muir delivers a sometimes grim, sometimes farcical story of self-discovery. A traditional fairytale princess is locked in a tower by an evil witch. The tower is guarded by a dragon, with other creatures on every flight, and only prince can saver her. What happens when the princes all die before they can climb to the fortieth floor? This was an enjoyable look at what a princess will do when faced with certain death and no one but herself to rely on.
Graphic: Death and Murder
Moderate: Gore, Medical trauma, and Slavery
