Willa Drew: What should I call you? Do you prefer a nickname?
Roselyn Bellmond: The prince calls me Roselyn and Cedrick calls me Red, but I’d prefer Rose.

WD: Rose it is. Welcome and thanks for agreeing to talk to us today. Can I get you something to drink? Water? Soda? Coffee? Wine? Whiskey?
R: Oh, no thank you. I can’t stay long. 
 
WD: Okay, let’s get this interview started then. Tell me a little about yourself.
R: I wish I could…it seems the Sorcerer has stolen my memories. That’s why I’m in such a rush–I’m trying to get them back.
 
WD: Well, that is different. Can you remember anything at all?
R: Hmm, the first memory I had was in the Kingdom of Cadell. I came to during my wedding to—you won’t believe it—but a prince. Me? A princess? It doesn’t feel right. How is it possible when I feel more at home in Mistbrooke Forest than do in a castle?
 
WD:: At your wedding? Did you marry the prince?
R: No, thank goodness. It was a close call, but I escaped the prince in time.
 
WD: If you left the prince, then are you alone? Or is someone helping you?
R: The only person I know right now is Cedrick. He frustrates me until I want to scream, but really, he’s all I have. He saved me when he didn’t have to…I won’t forget that.
 
WD: Okay, I’m liking Cedrick. What have you discovered so far? Like do you have any special talents?
R: When I sing…it’s like I can communicate with the creatures in the forest. Is that normal?
 
WD: Not where I come from, but I think Mistbrooke might be a bit different from my part of town. How do you know you can talk to animals?
R: There is a little yellow bird that follows me around. He likes to sing with me.
 
WD: That’s nice. Any other things you’ve figured out?
R: Yes! I discovered I can sew. Did you see? I sewed Cedrick’s old tunic so it could fit me. I could get used to not wearing a corset.
 
WD: Corsets can be a pain. Anything else you dislike?
R: I dislike it when I ask someone a question and they answer in riddles. Why can’t people say what they mean?
 
WD: Don’t like riddles much myself. What is your greatest fear?
R: The Sorcerer finding me. I don’t know what I’ve done to anger him, but he’s the one that cursed me.
 
WD:That’s fair. I’m a bit afraid of him myself. If you could change one thing about your life, what would it be?
R: To break this curse so that I could have my memories back…sigh.
 
WD: Yes. Absolutely. Break the curse. Wonder what the secret to breaking it is?
R: Wish I knew. But something tells me Cedrick has a big secret, and he’s not sharing.
 
WD: So he rescues you but is hiding something. There is definitely a story there 
R: You know my story?? Tell me, please! It’s so frustrating to not even know my favorite color.
 
WD:Sorry, right. This must be very confusing for you. Is there anything you want to say to your fans?
R: Fans? Like I use with a ballgown? Hahaha! That’s funny. Me talking to my fan.
 
WD: We have gotten a bit off track. Can we look forward to reading more of your story?
R: Oh, you mean you will help me find my memories? Thank you so much!
 
Cedrick: Red! Where have you been? …and who is this?
R: Cedrick! I was on my way to catch up with you when I ran into–

C: *whispers* You can’t just talk to strangers. We don’t know them.
R: *whispers back* They have been very nice to me. They even offered me a refreshment and told me a joke about a fan. Why are you giving me a face? Remember, I didn’t know you when we met yesterday.
C: *whispers* Yes, that’s the point. You can’t go around trusting random people. We are in enough trouble as it is. You’re going to get us both killed. Now, let’s go.
 
R: Ugh, that man. He means well in his own way, but comes across harshly sometimes. Yesterday, he rescued me and has been looking out for me ever since. 
C: Red!
R: I have to go. Thank you for your kindness and generosity. Maybe I will see you again soon?
 
WD: I certainly hope so. Drop by anytime and give us an update. And she’s gone. That Cedrick is an interesting fellow. Maybe I can snag him for an interview next. Get some straight answers for Rose.
