Something hides in the deepest part of the cornfields, a dark magic that should not be tampered with.
But, of course, someone does.
The mice Magnus, Ignatius, and Pestilence are blind, but they can see things no one else can. They knew when the servant girl came into the curio shop, and they knew they had so much to show her. Especially because she was already exposed to the terrors of the night, and she was about to experience more.
The scarecrows stalk the fields at night, enchanted with a powerful magic to guard something even more powerful: A mystical being with the ability to grant wishes.
Through visions of the past, present, and future, the three soothsayer mice tell the story of how a poor servant girl finds her way into a vast labyrinth and makes a wish to change her life...a wish that results in a grand transformation she never asked for: The very monster she herself used to fear. She is forced to learn to adjust in a new game of survival as outside forces to hunt her down are on the rise.
There is so much more that happened before she got there, and much more that is to come. She learns to prepare, to act, and to strategize, especially with the foes that first presented themselves as friends.
This mashup of a Nursery Rhyme with a classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale pays homage to their origins in a story of new twists and ominous foretelling.
