The well transports Giselle to the ‘real world’ New York City, where she is lost and alone. But Giselle becomes friends with Robert and his daughter Morgan who take care of her. After finding out that Giselle is missing Prince Edward travels to the real world to save her. Queen Narcissa and her evil sidekick Nathaniel also enter the real world to prevent Giselle from returning to Andalasia.
