Chapter 1: The United Kingdoms of Auradon

Chapter Text

The United Kingdoms of Auradon is the united nation and homeland to all the Heroes and Villains. The UKA came into existence 20 years prior, when King Beast forwent going on a honeymoon with Queen Belle, in favor of uniting nineteen of the fairy tale kingdoms. All villains were rounded up and booted off the region known as the Isle of the Lost; many were revived to suffer a fate worse than death, by living without magic.

Life in Auradon soon changed after King Beast declared that magic would mostly be retired so the next generation would learn to rely on their own talents instead of magic. Fairy Godmother was placed in charge of overseeing the usage of magic in the UKA; the discontent good fairies, Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather wanted to use their magic again since they could not perform mundane tasks without magic.

The kingdom is about to switch to new management as the coronation of Prince Benjamin Florian approaches.
