>>112091058There's a parallel world where imaginary characters fom fairytales, stories and legends live. The knight Don Quixote watches over the magical well that leads to the human world and allows people to travel through it, mainly because it leads to Carabosse, the witch of a thousand curses, who helps solve magical problems but lives in the human world.
Don Quixote sends his squire Abraca to be an apprentice under the witch, because she has a mysterious magical book but sucks at magic, she'd rather be a knight. He found her when she was a baby so her origins are unknown although anyone who's seen the concept art for the game can guess she's
a princess.
Firmin, a normal human boy who spends all his time playing videogames (including some Ankama actions games you'll wish existed instead of the crap they actually publish), is sent to his grandmother for the summer, in the sticks. His grandmother, of course, turns out to be the witch and while she tries to hide it during the first episode everything is revealed just in time to establish the status quo for the remainder of the series.
The regular cast also includes the witch's cat, who's actually Puss in Boots, and the hen that lays goldens eggs (Abraca's pet and their occasional source of income).
On each episode a different storybook character, with some twist (Pinocchio has become a truth-obsessed judge, sleeping beauty is a sleepwalker, Hop-o'-My-Thumb is a con artist) travels to the human world to be the problem of the week, shenanigans ensue. So far (episode 9) they never leave the house so an adventure series it ain't, it's very formulaic magical slice of life.
