Chapter Text
A humble note from the author:
Thank you so much for deciding to read my first official foray outside the safe and sheltered world of one-shots. (Deep-breath, here we go)
I would like to clarify some things before we embark upon this journey:
This story is set in that ever-lovely era described as "once upon a time." It isn't present day (Or rather, the eighties) as in the movie, it is sort of alternate universe. This is the story of "Labyrinth" entwined with the story of "Beauty and the Beast." I have taken liberal notes from several sources, including the books of Robin McKinley, the goddess of fairytale fiction. I could have never attempted this without her works Beauty and Rose Daughter to give me a push in the right direction when I was stuck. Please read her books, they are excellent!
"And now, Harry, let us step out into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure" -Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J.K. Rowling
Enjoy

This was originally posted on FanFiction.net in May of 2009. I thought that I would post it here for those who can't or don't read things on FFNet. This story is in some pretty dire need of editing and updating but I unfortunately have little time to do it lately, but I shall edit the heck out of it someday! (*Gazes off wistfully into the distance, wondering what it would be like to have as much free time as one needed to do what they wanted to do* *the poor author sighs*) I'm just copy+pasting this from my old files, so please tell me if you see anything strange with the formatting or whatnot. Without much further ado, please enjoy what was my first foray into multi-chapter fics!
