Tale As Old As Time [B&tB plot] (D5) {OPEN}

In a faraway land, a young prince lived in a shining castle. Okay, more like; in the District of five, a young man lived in a large manor but that's beside the point. This is supposed to be a fairy tale. Anyway, where was I? Oh yes... Although he had everything his heart desired, the prince was spoiled, selfish, and unkind. But then, one winter's night, an old beggar woman who was actually a beautiful woman under a ratty cape came to the castle yeah yeah, I know, manor and offered him a single rose in return for shelter from the bitter cold. Repulsed by her haggard appearance, the prince sneered at the gift and turned the "old woman" away. But she warned him not to be deceived by appearances, for beauty is found within. And when he dismissed her again, the old woman's ugliness melted away meaning she took off her cape to reveal a beautiful enchantress woman. The prince tried to apologize, but it was too late, for she had seen that there was no love in his heart. And as punishment, she transformed him into a hideous beast and placed a powerful spell on the castle and all who lived there. Alright, so she can't cast magic. Instead, she brought out a knife and slashed his face twice, one slice carving a line at the edge of his left eye and the other crossed from his left eyebrow to his right jaw. Unfortunately, the wounds got infected (done on purpose by the woman) and she gave him a glass container which held weakened antibiotics. They would be enough to hold back the infection and keep it from killing him, but no more. Ashamed of his monstrous form deformed face, the beast concealed himself inside his castle manor, with a magic mirror large glass window as his only window to the outside world. The rose she had offered was truly an enchanted rose, which would bloom until his 21st year. Well, truthfully it was a rose stuck in a large hourglass that would drain until he turned twenty-one. It counted down the time until the medicine would run out. If he could learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal last grain of sand fell, then the spell would be broken she would come back to revert the changes she had made. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time or in this case, die. As the years passed, he fell into despair and lost all hope. For who could ever learn to love a beast?
