The year 1010 is ending, and it has seen much change and upheaval. The Faeries have begun to paint the leaves and windowpanes with frost, and all the Trees are losing their leaves, lifting their bare arms to the eye of the Sun. Snow is starting to fall, and Father Christmas is checking his list. Thanks to the fairytales finding their way through Narnia, the country is filled with naughty and nice alike...and even some new terrors that go bump in the night...

Alice is just one of many to have tumbled into Narnia; she washed up on the beach last winter and was found by Chester the Cheshire Cat, who took her to the Cherry Tree Inn; he was chummy with its owner, Mr. Faariel. At the inn, Alice found a hearth to dry off and a hearty family to take her in. Now, she is the Cherry Tree's first delivery girl and the Faariels' own adopted daughter. Alice's favorite shop to deliver lunch to is perhaps the Clockwork Hattery, owned by one David “Hatter” Madigan – who, they say, is quite dashing...even if he may be a bit mad. Sanity aside, he may just be Alice's favorite form of company – followed closely by Robin Hood and the Cheshire Cat. Yet, although she has love for Narnia, her very blood beckons her back to her Wonderlandian roots, where an underground faction seethes, bent on crowning the Cherry Tree's modest inn-girl over the venomous Queen Meridel.
