A child, stolen. Punishments worse than death. The history of the United States of Auradon is far from the pretty pink fairytale land it pretends to be these days. But you can make anything seem good if you frame it right. It's all about perception and image.
But a pack of lies is not a firm foundation for building an empire and, sooner or later, someone always comes along with the truth that'll send it tumbling down. Now the winds of change are coming whether the city is ready or not.
The prophecy will be spoken. The heir will return. The barrier will fall.
