         <description><![CDATA[<pre><code>A long time ago there was a womyn with vertically blessed hair. And there was also a wicked (Rightfully so due to society not giving her the attention she deserves as a womyn just because she does not apply to society's normative beauty standards) spellcasterperson who is trying to imprison Rapunzel into a vertically blessed tower. Though, the spellcasterperson obviously can't (Not as an ability problem that this spellcasterperson posseses) because Rapunzel is a rightfully so free woman who has every single right and ability to leave the tower. But the townsfolk has had a problem with the vertically blessedness of Rapunzel's hair. Due to it's incredible vertical blessingness it is causing the people of all genders and those who don't have a gender in the town to have mobility issues. They tried to speak with Rapunzel about the fact that she can't take away their freedom of wandering and that she should cut her hair. In contrast to that Rapunzel is trying (And succeeding) to protect her own right of keeping her hair as vertically blessed as it is. And thus they come to an agreement via the spellcasterperson's incredible and especially unwicked intellectual plan of keeping Rapunzel in the tower and in order to not step on the townsfolk's boundaries, Rapunzel accepts this deal. And they live happily ever after with mutual respect and ability of mobility and also the right to keep a vertically blessed hair with no particular masculine person to save anyone as a womyn can protect her own rights of growing her hair.</code></pre><p><br/></p>]]></description>

Trying the find who stole the scientifically upgraded fertilized beans and encounters Kitty Toughclaws (It is sexist to call her Softpawns because she is a female) and she leads him to his chilhood friend Humpty Dumpty who gaslighted him.

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Snow White was a curious and thoughtful young person who lived in a community where kindness was valued but not always practiced. One day, after facing unfair treatment from a jealous royal, Snow White chose to leave the palace and build a life elsewhere. During the journey, they discovered a small home in the forest, cared for by seven adults who worked together as a cooperative. The seven companions welcomed Snow White without judgment. Each had different strengths, abilities, and personalities, and they supported one another as equals. Snow White contributed by helping organize the home and sharing knowledge from the outside world. When the jealous royal eventually tried to harm Snow White, the companions stood together, calmly resolving the conflict and ensuring everyone’s safety. Snow White later became a community leader, known for fairness, collaboration, and refusing to let anyone be reduced to stereotypes.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>once upon a time there lived a king and queen who said everyday "only if we had a child". Not because they had to, but wanted to. After many years, their wish came true, and a baby was born. It was a femxle. She grew up to her 20s pretty well, nothing was wrong, until she caught up by a rare medical condition which sent her into a coma. Because not every royal has 'perfect' genes. The king and queen invited a doctor to visit and check her. (We're not assuming the doctor is a male, but he was actually a male) He came and checked on the girl, he said "Only the true love of her can wake her up with a kiss." The queen was taken aback, she said "Why would i let a stranger kiss my daughter? She won't have consent because she is basically unconscious". They didn't do anything after that and just waited and waited. The people of the land heard about the princess's condition and were shocked by the drama. A few prices came by and tried kissing her assuming that they were her true love because they think they are the most handsome and physically gifted differently (also white) but she did not wake up. The king hanged them all because they basically sexually assaulted his daughter because they all failed. One day, one of the princesses beloved friends was concerned and decided to give it a shot. Don't be mistaken, she wasn't a lady, royal person or anything. She was just a regular commoner because the princess did not care about her friends' status because it doesn't matter to be a friend. She asked for permission of her parents at least to make the situation less invading. She leaned in, tying not to touch her anywhere else and kissed her. To the princesses parents' surprise, she actually woke up. The princess asked what happened and their parents told her. She was pissed because she was kissed by a lot of people without her consent. However she wasn't mad at her friend who saved her life for kissing her because she did not care about the stereotypical belief that a princess should be with a prince. They didn't jump into marriage immediately because they both knew that something serious as marriage takes time to build and people should take time to get to know each other. They lived casually together ever after. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Once upon a time there was a prince who wanted to marry a princess, but she had to be a real princess. This wasn't due to his beliefs, any woman was a princess in his eyes but she had to be a real princess because of his parents' different and valid worldview. </p><p>He travelled all over the world to find a suitable princess, but nowhere could he find a lady that matched well with him. There were princesses out there alright, but it was difficult to find out whether they were real princesses or not. Surely the ladies wouldn't lie about having such a title, but he had to make sure for his parents who had totally different, valid perspectives on the matter than him. Plus the ladies didn't like him too so there were no hearts broken in the process. After his adventure, he came home very upset for he wanted very much to fall in love with a willing real princess.</p><p>One evening a terrible storm came on, which was in a way, good for the environment, for it watered the soil. There was thunder and lightning and the rain poured down. Suddenly a knock was heard at the city gate and the mature not old king went to open it because he didn't want to inconvenience his beloved servants with the task.</p><p>There was a princess standing out there in front of the gate, but, good gracious, what a sight the way the rain and the wind made her look. She had water pouring down her hair and clothes. Not that this made her unsightly, every woman is pretty in their own way, but she was stood there claiming that she was a real princess. Even though the king was against classist thoughts like this, it wasn't common to see a princess in this state.</p><p>"Well, we'll find that out soon enough.", thought the mature not old queen, but she said nothing, not because it wasn't her place as a woman, but because she was just being polite. The queen went into the bedroom, took all the bedding off the bedstead, and laid a pea on the bottom. Then she took twenty mattresses and laid them on the pea, and then twenty feather beds on top of the mattresses.</p><p>On this the princess had to lie all</p><p>night because they wanted to host her in the best way possible. In the morning she was asked how she had slept "Oh, very badly!" said she. "I hardly closed my eyes all night. Heaven only knows what was in the bed, but I was lying on something hard, so that I am black and blue all over my body. It's horrible!", she said politely.</p><p>Now they knew that she was a real</p><p>princess, because she had felt the pea</p><p>right through the twenty mattresses and</p><p>the twenty feather beds. Nobody but a real</p><p>princess could have felt it.</p><p>So the prince asked her to be his lawfully wedded wife, for now he knew that he had a real princess. The pea was put into the</p><p>museum, where it may still be seen to this day if no one in need has politely taken it or eaten it to satiate their hunger.</p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

         <title>Coal Black and the Seven Vertically Constrained People</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Once upon a time, in a faraway democratic republic, there was a kind and physically gifted heir-of-the-president named Coal Black. Ze had skin as black as coal, lips as brown as coffee, and hair as blonde as gold. But ze lived with zir stepparent, the spouse of the president, who was physically healthy on the outside but had some mental idiosyncrasy. The spouse of the president had a technologic mirror. Every day, ze would ask it, “Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?”<br>And the mirror would always answer,<br>“You are, of course, the fairest of them all.”<br>This made zir smile, for ze loved being the most admired in the republic. But as Coal Black grew older, zir physical attributes began to distinguish zir from others.<br>One day, when the spouse of the president asked zir mirror, it replied,<br>“Coal Black is the fairest of them all.” <br><br>Ze was furious. Ze could not bear the thought of anyone being more democratic than zir. So, ze made a wicked plan. Ze called the minister of wild protection and ordered,<br>“Take Coal Black deep into the forest and never bring zir back!” <br><br>The minister led Coal Black far into the woods, but when he looked into zir kind and gentle eyes, ze could not do zir harm.<br>“Run away,” ze whispered, “and never return to the castle. The spouse of the president must never find you.” <br><br>Coal Black ran through the forest, dodging trees and stumbling over roots. Ze was frightened and alone. Just as the sun began to set, ze found a tiny cottage hidden among the trees.<br>Ze knocked softly. No one answered.<br>Ze stepped inside and saw seven little chairs, seven little bowls, and seven tiny beds. Tired from running, ze lay down across the beds and soon fell fast asleep. <br><br>That evening, the owners of the cottage returned. They were seven vertically constraint people who were comfortable with little furniture who worked in the mountains digging for gems. When they saw Coal Black, they gathered around. <br><br>“Who is this person, and how ze dared to enter our private property?” asked one.<br>“Ze looks tired; however, this doesn't give zir the right to violate the law!” said another.<br>“Let’s not scare zir. We can denounce zir to the police afterwards," said Jolly, the happiest of the seven. <br><br>Coal Black woke up and gasped, but the seven people were kind. Ze told them zir story, and their faces turned serious. <br><br>“You can stay with us,” said Grumble, the most self-assured one.<br>“But the spouse of the president may come looking for you,” warned Wise, the one with the longest life experience.<br>“I’ll be careful,” Coal Black promised. <br><br>Ze stayed with them, helping with chores and making the cottage feel like home. They became like a family. <br><br>But far away in her castle, the spouse of the president once again asked,<br>“Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?”<br>And the mirror replied,<br>“Coal Black, who lives with the seven people, is the fairest of them all.” <br><br>Ze was enraged. Using dark magic, ze disguised zirself as an experienced officer. Ze made a shiny red apple and filled it with a terrible sleeping spell. <br><br>Dressed in zir disguise, ze traveled to the cottage and knocked on the door. <br><br>“Hello, dear,” ze said kindly. “Would you like to try a special apple? It’s the sweetest one you’ll ever taste.” <br><br>Coal Black hesitated. But the officer seemed genuine, and the apple looked delicious. Ze took one small bite… and suddenly, zir eyes closed, and ze fell to the floor. <br><br>Ze laughed wickedly and disappeared into the woods. <br><br>When the seven people returned home, they found zir lying still and silent. They cried and tried everything, but ze would not wake up. <br><br>They gently laid zir in a glass case filled with soft flowers and placed it deep in the forest. They stayed near zir, always hoping ze would wake. <br><br>One day, a heir-of-the-president rode through the woods and saw zir. Ze had heard of zir justice. When ze saw zir face, ze felt miserable that ze won't be able to let zir justice speak. <br><br>Ze leaned down and gently kissed zir forehead. <br><br>Suddenly, Coal Black's eyes fluttered open. The spell was broken! <br><br>The seven vertically constrained people jumped and cheered. Coal Black smiled at them, then at the heir.<br>“Come with me,” said the heir. “You’ll be safe in the parliament, and never afraid again. You will be able to provide justice in the nation!” <br><br>Coal Black hugged each of the seven people.<br>“I’ll never forget you,” ze said with happy tears. <br><br>Ze left with the heir to live a fair life, but often returned to visit the seven friends who had given zir love and safety when ze needed it most. <br><br>As for the evil spouse of the president, when ze learned that Coal Black still lived, zir anger grew so hot that it shattered zir magic forever. Ze vanished, never to return. <br><br>And so, Coal Black lived happily and fair ever after — always remembering that kindness, justice, and true friends are the most powerful law of all.<br></p>]]></description>
