Setting the Scene

Long, long ago a beautiful Princess called Odette was cursed by the evil Sorcerer Rothbart to become a swan by day and only to return to her mortal form by moonlight.

The curse can only be lifted by the love of a pure and true heart. Years later Prince Karl is hiding out at the Old Swan Inn. On learning of the legend from a mysterious old man he sets out on a quest to find the Swan Princess.
