Once upon a time...

Long ago the world was a very different place. Everything was burning up. It never rained or even snowed. But that all changed when a little girl named Tristan was born. The weather seemed to cool down the second she took her first breath. The thing about Tristan was, that her emotions were connected to the weather. They reflected what she was feeling. So when a tragedy came knocking at her door, it shaped the world forever.

On one fateful night her beloved dog happened die. She was heartbroken and started to cry. Tears gushed from her eyes. Puddles appeared around her. A storm started raging outside. Her tears were causing it. Tristan's parents tried to calm her down. But then the roof gave out and rain poured through the ceiling. The room quickly flooded, trapping the family inside. The water rose until the room could no longer hold more. Tristan, losing consciousness, stopped crying. The storm suddenly stopped too. But it was too late. The family had been under water too long.

Tristan awoke an orphan. She blamed herself and grew very sad. Her sorrow brought a chill to the world. The sun practicly disappeared. Her heart had long grown cold and dark, as did the weather.

Tristan was taken in by a family friend. They were very austere and cruel people. Spitting out trenchant remarks and treating her like a slave. Peter, who was the family's oldest son poured adulation on her. He gave her gifts and complements. But peter also treated her poorly and took sadistic pleasure in tormenting her. He scared away any man that ever looked her way.

Many years later a Handsome man wondered into town. He was bursting with happiness, the opposite of Tristan. His presence seemed to warm up the cold world. His name was Tate and he was the cause of the hot weather. Tristan was instantly drawn to him. The two started to fall in love. Tristan's frozen heart thawed. As did the snow outside. The weather grew warmer and warmer. They were happy and in love.

Peter relized he would lose Tristan forever. In a jealous rage he went to a nearby witch for help. He begged her for a potion that would get rid of Tate. To create it peter must complete 3 tasks.

"First you must bring me a toad from the darkest part of the swamp" the witch smirked. "Next you must bring me three of the best chocolate cakes you can find."

"Finally you must bring me a lock of hair from the girl."

The next day Peter gave everything to the witch. She mixed everything in a boiling pot, throwing in other foul smelling ingredints. Bubbles rose from the pot making loud popping noices.
