"Sleeping Beauty: Awoken"
Once upon a time,
a princess was conceived in the fourteenth century
in a land without magical fairies.
Aurora was the daughter of King Stephen and Queen Leah.
But Alas!
There was none to make her gorgeous,
None to make her sound as pretty as the birds,
None to put her in a deep sleep when she pricked her finger.
Aurora’s life was like that of any other princess.
Private schooling and princess duties.
After all she had a kingdom to rule!
What about a prince you ask?
Haven’t you heard of an independent woman?
Because that is exactly who Princess Aurora was.
Ruthless,
Amazing,
Fearless,
Liberated,
Queen Aurora.
