WHAT IT’S ABOUT
Thornhedge is Sleeping Beauty reimagined: What if the princess was awful? What if you’re a fairy guardian and really struggling with your job because your charge is a menace? This is the story of Toadling and the monster she must keep locked away.
A towering wall of brambles and a curse have held a princess for centuries. After so much time, a gentle knight approaches, undaunted by arms-sharp thorns. He’s here to free the captive and break the curse, but lofty as these aspirations are, Toadling has no intention of allowing anyone to vanquish this spell. Walls keep things out, but also hold things in, and no one was meant to cross those thorns.
