  So, a few lore things to note:<br><br>Ashlynn Ella and Hunter’s relationship has to be kept secret because of societal norms. Ashlynn, being a royal, is expected to marry a prince someday. Meanwhile, Hunter is considered both a commoner and a rebel (for not wanting to hunt animals like he’s supposed to). Also, I’d like to point out that as the next generational huntsman, he actually plays the role in both the Snow White and Little Red Riding Hood stories.<br><br>Cedar was not born traditionally, she was carved out of wood like Pinocchio originally was and granted life by the Blue Haired Fairy - no awkward or painful births involved. However, the whole lying, nose-growing thing won’t happen for her until later in life, so for now she has been cursed by the fairy to only tell the truth. <br><br>Cerise has to hide her ears because her very existence is forbidden. Her parents’ romance goes against the very idea of destiny, and Cerise having the physical trait of wolf ears is clear proof of that. No one else can learn that she’s part wolf or else they’d find out about her family’s secret. And to make matters worse, she’s actually destined to face off against her older sister as the big bad wolf in her story.<br><br>And lastly, Kitty is a trouble-maker, but not necessarily out of bad intentions. She’s just super passionate about following her destiny as the next Cheshire Cat (a character who is very mischievous in general)

  In the first book, there&apos;s a really sad prologue where Raven is watching the previous years legacy day and she sees an evil witch&apos;s daughter signing through her tears. It&apos;s also sad, because the narrotar mentions how she&apos;s wearing her favrioute lilac sandals under her black witches robe. She would never get to wear lilac again. 😢

  It’s Ashlyn because Cinderella’s name starts with “cinder” and Ashlyn’s name starts with “ash”. You see?? Get it? They both relate to fire.

  According to the book, not only can Cedar not lie, she is forced to tell the truth. At one point a group of students bullied her by asking her embarrassing and personal questions and she had to answer them

  For a bit of lore explanation: the school isn’t split into heroes and villains, it’s split into royals and rebels. So the royals are all the heroes of their stories yes, but the rebels aren’t all the villains. Like Hunter is the son of the huntsman in Little Red Riding Hood (a good guy), but he isn’t royalty so he’s a rebel. Same with Red Riding Hood’s daughter, and Pinocchio’s daughter etc. Hope that helps!

  To explain the Royal vs Rebel distinction, since nobody seems to be getting it right:<br>Royals- want to stay &quot;loyal&quot; to their story and follow their destiny <br>Rebels- don&apos;t want to follow their destiny<br>This is how you get people like Raven (and later some other people, but I won&apos;t spoil) who are technically royalty, but are Rebels, and people like Faybelle (daughter of the thorn fairy from the sleeping beauty) who are villains of their story but considered Royals because they want to follow their story<br>(Hopefully this makes sense, English is not my first language 😅)

  I’m gonna explain Cerise’s (Little Red’s daughter) situation. Because her mom is the hero and her father is the wolf from their tale it’s seen as rebellious that they fell in love. Also I’m gonna say this because you’ll only know some of this info from the books. BUT! In their version of the story, they never really did anything they were supposed to in the tale. Everything was staged so that both the Wolves and the Hoods (it’s two different clans) would assume they did their job right. After all—it’s blasphemy to not complete your role in your story

  Here’s a little info on kitty’s disappearing power. When she disappears with a smile she goes into something like a limbo pocket dimension that the Cheshire Cat can access to go to places faster. It was mentioned in one of the books that detailed what certain characters did the summer before their current legacy year. &nbsp;Also I gotta mention that kitty and Lizzie hearts (the red queen’s daughter) can hear the narrators, they just choose to ignore them. It’s a wonderland thing

  It’s not about cerise being ashamed that she’s part werewolf or the fact that her dad is one either. I think it’s more of the fact that traditionally, the villain is the werewolf. That’s how the story is written. But in Ever After High, the secret is that the story is essentially wrong &amp; little red riding hood &amp; the wolf got married. So revealing she’s part wolf would be a contradiction to the story &amp; her legacy

  One of the major themes of the show is that the system not only is broken but has been broken for a long time. Cerise Hood, a.k.a. Little Red 2.0, is proof of this, being the daughter of Little Red and the Big Bad Wolf, obviously a romance that goes against their story. Ashlynn and Hunter are another example, though a milder one, of being of different politic affiliations (Ashlynn part of the Royals who want their destinies and Hunter part of the Rebels who don&apos;t). But there are a ton more to come: people circumventing their destinites, manipulating them, fighting them, changing them. Raven is just the latest and loudest in a long time of dissenters.

  Ashlynn Ella’s name is a reference to the German version of Cinderella (Aschenputl) and to the fact that in the story the nickname Cinderella came from the stepsisters mocking her for sleeping by the cinders of the fireplace and ending up covered in soot and ashes.
