*NOTE: Not at all connected to the Disney version. Is based both on the classic tales and Nordic mythology. Hielia is a world in which the classic fairy tales of Hans Christian Anderson and the Brothers Grimm, the classic Arthurian legends, and Nordic Mythology all exist in one continual timeline, starting from the creation of the world (Midgard is the world, Hielia is the continent most of the stories take place on). 'Snow White, Rose Red, and the Seven Dwarves' follows two sister, Snow White and Rose Red, throughout their life from the point of their magical birth from two rose bushes, to their befriending of a prince cursed to being a bear, to when Snow White is put into a sleeping spell by the evil step-mother.
