BLUEBEARD

Dark Forgotten fairy tale

Deep in the Once Upon A Time land, in one of the Far Away Kingdoms lived Lord Bluebeard.

He was feared by the entire realm and was a most dreadful widower. When the last of the royalty member died, the fate of the kingdom and the crown fell on to him. But to ascend to the throne, finding a royal bride was his mission.

In her castle, the princess receives the invitation to attend the ball thrown by Lord Bluebeard. She agrees to attend…and to marry him under one condition: he must protect her kingdom at all costs.

What she did not know was that Lord Bluebeard also had his condition, never to enter one room in his castle while absent on campaigns to ensure the safety of the Far Away Kingdom.

Will she hold her promise never to open the door and maybe find out why all his wives mysteriously vanished? Will she use the one skill she has that no one knows about? Will Bluebeard fall for the princess or kill her as he did his other wives, or so his legend said?

MÈRIDA LYON

There is a difference between wanting to be the centre of attention and wanting to perform.

For since I can remember, I have wanted to perform. I wanted to know the art. I would be reenacting what I would be watching on television. I would sing what I heard and recite my favourite books.

But I was different and odd to many people. I liked to perform but not people. There was a side of me that grew in the dark and admire the night sky wondering what was out there. Stories would take form in my head, and I would write them all down.

There are two “me” I know, the gothic girl hoping there is more to this world than just humans and the nerdy one who believes in science.

This website is all about my research and, my books, my life as an artist and author. I hope you all enjoy what I have to share and my stories too!
