In many modern fairy tales, a “happy ever after” ending is to be expected, especially in versions depicted by Disney.

The Fabulous Fable Factory is filled with many characters with colorful voices. Two characters in the show stood out to me as having contrasting voices, so I decided to focus on writing about them. Monroe is the young boy who is the protagonist of the story, and Wadsworth is one of the parts of the machine.
