Rapunzel: Love Against the Tower

Описание: A tower with no door. A girl with no freedom. Hair that falls like golden rope.
This is Rapunzel—the Brothers Grimm tale of longing, captivity, and a love that refuses to die.

It starts with a craving. A pregnant woman sees rampion growing in a forbidden garden and becomes consumed by it. Her husband, desperate to save her, steals from the garden's owner—a powerful enchantress named Dame Gothel. But theft comes with a price. And the price is their child.
Rapunzel grows up locked in a tower deep in the forest. No stairs. No door. Just a window at the top and hair so long it becomes her prison's only entrance. Dame Gothel climbs it. And for years, no one else even knows she's there.

Until a prince hears her singing.

What follows is a story of forbidden meetings, a careless mistake, and a punishment so cruel it shatters everything. The prince falls from the tower into thorns that blind him. Rapunzel is cast into a desert to survive alone. And for years, they wander—broken, searching, believing they've lost each other forever.

But some things can't be destroyed. Not by rage. Not by distance. Not even by blindness.

This is the full story, told with the darkness and beauty it deserves. No sugarcoating. Just the raw, aching truth of a tale about what happens when love endures the unendurable.
