The heroine has been disabled in both legs since childhood and abandoned. The nun who raised her like her own child is murdered by a priest. With no one to rely on, how is she supposed to survive? Fairy tales are all lies; life is cruel. Fortunately, the hero protects her every step of the way, but is he good or evil? At midnight, a nun weeps. The priest, who can invent all kinds of miraculous insects, is neither wholly good nor evil. Why does he throw young children down a well? Why does he dismember people?
