Synopsis

Merrigan wasn't really an evil queen. Her royal siblings referred to her as the brat, and she lived down to it.However, she was married to an evil king. When he lost a fight with a magic apple tree and got himself killed, she did whatever she could to hold onto the kingdom. Including lying to a powerful seer.Big mistake.Merrigan was cursed: turned into an old woman, she was doomed to wander until she learned to care about others.
