They call her the Dark One. Mistress of deals, the most powerful sorceress in the world… Skin like white porcelain, hard and white. Chocolate tresses that curl and coil beneath her ornate hood. Unnatural blue eyes that freezes the blood in your very veins… Beautiful. Deadly. No one who crosses her lives to tell the tale. When his son - among many other of the town’s children - is drafted into the Ogre’s War, Rumplestiltskin convinces the mayor to summon her in hopes of striking a deal. If she will rescue all the children, the town will give The Dark One whatever she desires in return. She chooses Rumplestiltskin himself.
