The Chronicles of Kronk and Fannlee: The Beginning

Once upon a time in the school year of 2008-2009 in the heartland of a country not so far away, in a land that was unusually windy, stood a city. In the heart of the city there was a special college where children of the King would go to study and prepare themselves for whatever the King might have them to do. At this college there was a Hopeful dorm in which maidens who were the King's daughters came to dwell while they studied. And in this Hopeful dorm there was a room marked by the numbers 705. Little did they know, but four princesses (for after all isn't that what daughters of the King are?) were soon to find themselves embarking on an epic journey of friendship and adventure!

The first Princess to arrive and thus begin her great adventure was Princess Annlee. She was the oldest princess and it was to be her last year in the Hopeful Dorm. When she didn't have her nose stuck in a book, she was often teased about her lack of a prince. The short but feisty Princess Annlee would always look up (way up!) at the other girls and laugh (as she loved to do quite often) in the face of this teasing, boldly declaring that she would wait for a Prince Manly because she did not want to settle for a yucky little boy! 

The next princess to arrive was the youngest of them all and was brand new to the school in the heartland, but she had shown wisdom beyond her years by praying that the King would bless her first year in a special way by giving her just the right roommates, which, as you will see, the King truly did. A lover of random birds, Princess Yonk had enough spirit and spunk that the others often forgot that she was younger than the rest of them. In addition to her spunk, Princess Yonk's beauty and spirit caught the eye of Prince Mit (or Mittens as Princess Annlee liked to call him) the minute he saw her. At first Princess Yonk laughed at his jester-like silliness but in the end she couldn't resist his princely charm and even now is married to him and is living out her happily ever after.

Our third Princess to make the Room 705 her home was the blonde Princess K-Rug who was known to enchant whole crowds of people at a time with the beautiful music she could draw forth from her violin. The King had given His daughter Princess K-Rug not only a special gift of music but also of love and acceptance. Even the hesitant Princess Annlee could not resist the sincerity of her gentle acceptance of each of them in spite of how very, very different they all were.

Our last Princess (and possibly the most important of all) almost missed out on the great adventure and actually came into the story several days after the others. Without Princess FB, it's highly doubtful that their adventures would have ever taken place! Seemingly carried by the unusual wind that seemed to never stop blowing, Princess FB breezed into Room 705 and, just as quickly, breezed into the hearts and lives of the other princesses. Princess FB was so like the wind with which she came, always swirling about the room full of life, chatter, and made-up songs that it earned her the nickname Forest Breeze as one of her many, many nicknames.

It did not take long before the King's answer to Princess Yonk's prayers became obvious and the Room 705 became known as a peaceful, joyful haven in the Hopeful dorm. The other maidens living in Hopeful dorm loved to visit this Room 705 to talk, joke, and even to do Tae Bo. During the year that these four Princesses dwelt together they had many great adventures! Perhaps some day, if you are very lucky, you will be able to hear the tales of "How What Was Almost Wasn't", "Ross and the Shrimp Skirmish", "the Night the Bed-Bugs Did Bite", "The Mystery of the Ghastly Girls: Who Scared Princess Mallory?", or their most recent adventure "The Roomie Reunion in Ocean's Paradise."

As much as Princess Annlee loved to read and laugh, Princess K-Rug loved music, and Princess Yonk loved random birds, Princess FB loved to talk. Each of these zany princess were so very, very different but together they were something very, very special; together they became Kronk and Fannlee, sisters bound together as daughters of the King.
