Scarlet is a princess. This is obvious as her mother is a queen and her father is a knight. Life passes in idyllic splendor with her stuffed animal companions Captain Bear and Sergeant Mouse. Then the trolls arrive in her wardrobe with a desperate message from the town of Straw-on-Water. The Mouse Queen is a prisoner of the diabolical Beast. It is up to Scarlet, Captain Bear, and Sergeant Mouse to rescue the Mouse Queen across a wondrous realm where Scarlet learns that things aren't always as they first seem.
