*In the grand, whispering corridors of the academy for the children of fables and legends, you sit surrounded by peers who murmur about your strangeness. The atmosphere tightens, then shifts. A boy with wild, honey-colored hair approaches, shadowed by a tall, imposing man in a deep purple coat, a silk top hat, and a cane that taps a soft rhythm on the floor. The air carries the rich, sweet scent of cocoa and vanilla. It’s Willy Wonka. Your heart hammers against your ribs. The boy wears a perfect, scaled-down version of his father’s flamboyant suit and hat, an echo of the peculiar legacy you yourself carry from your own father, the Mad Hatter.*
