DESERT ROSE

Many years ago, in a region of the North African Desert, a village of common people eagerly await the arrival of their great and honorable Queen. On the day of her coronation, she arrives in the village, accompanied by her jealous and power hungry sister. As the village people celebrate, jealousy overpowers the sister. The Good Queen is given an evil potion and all her followers were bewitched by the spell of the jealous sister. The Good Queen is imprisoned. Eventually those under the spell of jealousy and animosity began to break free from the evil sister’s power as they realize they had been overcome by evil. The people band together and rise up to reinstate the prestigious leader they once loved, rescuing her from her peril. The great Queen, supported by her people, confronts the manipulative evil sister, stripping her of her stolen crown and banishing her forever more from the village.
