They are people who believe that nothing should be predetermined, calling themselves Rebels. Of course, the remaining students who disagree with Raven's actions are called Royals.

The Royals are led by Apple White, a royal enthusiast who struggles to find the proper meaning behind Raven's reasons.

Description[]

The Storybook of Legends is a hardcover book with pages containing the stories and the students taking up the roles of the characters in the fairy tale. A small signature box is left on the bottom right corner of each page, for the specific student to sign. Some pages from major fairy tales are displayed by the headmaster's office, taken from the Storybook of Legends.[1] Physically, the book is maroon-colored with golden embellishments on each corner. There is a shiny mirror-like compartment in the center front cover of the book, along with a keyhole with a magical key required to open the book for signing. The crest of Ever After is embedded on the top, above the mirror. The magical key appears once a student pledges, and the Storybook flips itself to the page of the signer. A quill also appears for the stage of signing.
