## Augustine's Casket Stories

**The Miller**

This the Miller's blood. The miller, his wife, and their daughter lived a happy life. The mill provided everything they needed. That all changed when lightning struck the mill and it burned down. The family kept working, but it wasn't enough. Winter quickly approached, and his family went hungry. The miller made a deal with Mayor Tom so his family wouldn't suffer. The mayor promised to fulfill the miller's wish in exhange for his service. So, the miller signed the contract.

**Jack**

Oh, this would be Jack's blood. He's a new arrival to Wishville. Honestly, it's quite surprising he's still alive. Jack was going to propose to his beloved while they were on a balloon ride. What was supposed to be a beautiful moment became a disaster when a freak blizzard struck. The balloon crashed and Jack's beloved was badly injured. Jack couldn't save her life. Luckily, he found someone who could save her. Thus, he signed a contract with Tom. Why, congratulations! He did this for you!

**Prince Philippe**

Yes, I remember the Prince Philippe well. He was the youngest of five princes in his kingdom. His brothers were stronger than him and kept everything for themselves. He just wanted to be noticed. So, Mayor Tom granted his wish to become a hero. Tom offered him a legendary sword, and promised to make him the hero of Wishville. Philippe would be famous throughout the world. The prince agreed and signed the contract.

**King George**

Ah, yes. I remember King George well. He and his servants lived in luxury. Rumors about his feasts spread throughout the kingdom. But the continous feast required money. Soon, the treasury was empty. Out of despair, the king appealed to Tom. He asked Tom to be matched with the miller's daughter. There were rumors that she could turn straw into gold. A wife like that could fill the king's empty treasury. Tom promised to arrange everything, so George signed the contract without hesitation.

**Walter**

It's difficult to remember. It happened so long ago. Wish Master Walter was honest and fulfilled wishes for people who really needed a miracle. The one who know the Wish Master's true name can control him. Tom tricked Walter to discover his real name and took his power. Walter's vitality started dwindling, but he dreamed of a normal human life ... A life without the Wish Master's burden and eternal life. Tom promised to give him that life, so Walter signed the contract.

**Augustine**

This is the blood of my mistress, Augustine. She gave me a part of her soul. Where did you get it? Augustine was always very smart. When her father signed the contract, she tracked down Mayor Tom and revealed his secret. Tom owned a magic spindle that could turn straw into gold. The young girl went to Tom and wished for the impossible - his spindle. The Wish Master couldn't resist fulfilling the wish, but he couldn't let her outsmart him. He promised to come for the debt he was owed in three years. If Augustine didn't give him what he asked for, she'd pay with her life. For three years, Augustine looked for a way to avoid paying her debt. She found a magic casket with roses that could defend her against anyone. But, for this, she gave the casket a part of her soul. One day, Tom came to the castle and demanded she give him her biggest treasure - her first born child. But she managed to hide the baby. She assumed her life was safe, too. The roses didn't let Tom go near the queen to take his spindle, but they couldn't save her from being cut by a poisoned spinning stick. The poison started slowly killing her.

**Martha**

Of course, I know Martha! She loved Augustine more than life! Martha rushed to the castle to see her grandson, but found her daughter dying instead. She was wrapped in strange roses that wouldn't let Martha approach her. She lost her daughter and grandson in one day. Mad with grief, she called on Tom and begged him to keep her daughter alive. Martha signed the contract, and Tom fulfilled her wish in his own way. Augustine was kept alive, but in an eternal sleep.

**Mayor Tom**

Ah, yes! I've finally tasted his blood. He's the one to blame! Everyone knows him as Tom, the mayor of Wishville. Tom found out about wish masters and wanted to become one. He discovered the Wish Master's true name and took his power. He made sure to keep his own name a secret. The magic spindle provided him with golden yarn that could fulfill wishes. This let him control his debtors. That is, until he met Augustine and lost his spindle. His stores of golden yarn ran dry, and his strength weakened. His greatest secret was still kept well. Now his blood will reveal it. His true name is Rumpelstiltskin!
