Summary
An awesome story about a young king who wants to do the impossible! And the ill-advised! And, frankly, makes a kind of stupid choice to go into the murder forest that took the lives of his father and six consecutive brothers.
Inside, a deeper, darker secret lurks, one that brings fairies, witches, sorcery, and...love?
The creature is a tall hairy man who takes issue with your dating choices...all while visiting half the town every night.
