Snow White Sorrow (The Grimm Diaries #1)

Itsy and Bitsy: Fable’s favorite spiders. One is depressed because he was in love, and he hates Axel, the other is too small to be depressed, he helped Babushka with cooking.

Godmother Justina: blind mother of justice in the Fairyworld. She has troubles with her scale. Snakes always outweigh apples, but she’s still trying. Her intentions are that everyone sees justice, although she is blind herself.

The Brothers Grimm: for some reason, they forged the fairy tales and cursed the fairy tale characters into a Sleeping Death. Their names are Jacob and Wilhelm, and they will appear soon.

The Mermaids: they like to welcome everyone in the Missing Mile, giggle, and splash water. They thought Loki was really cute.

The Whale: is practically the island of Sorrow. No one knows how long he’ll stay put before he rolls over.

Genius Goblin: creator of the Harum Scarum forum, dedicated to tracking the vampire princess. Loki swears he’s going to kick his ass one day.

J.G.: writer of the diary Axel found in the library.

V.H.: wrote most of the articles in the Dreamhunter’s notebook.



Belly and Beast Menu:

Although they have a huge menu, so far we saw Axel and Fable eat the following:

Sticky Sweet Bones: you have to lick the sweets before you eat the bones.

Tragic Beans: they will eventually make you cry and laugh in the same time.

Coffinmuffins: don’t eat the carrot in the muffin.

Poisoned Apples: kinda gets you high. Because they’re so delicious, you pass out for a minute and then you wake alright. You can grab yourself another one then.

Cinderella Mozerella: Axel likes these but he hasn’t talked about them yet.

Reluctant Jelly: hard to get a grip on.



Places and other things

Snoring: a very boring town in the Ordinary World that has vampires. Loki used to live there. Locals like to call it the Great Snoring. Founder: Snoring von Boring the II.

Hell: a number of towns in America that probably all serve as a portal to Sorrow. There are no towns called Heaven.

Sorrow: an island on the back of a whale where many fairy tale characters live. Very few know that it’s surrounded by the Missing Mile on all sides. Two hundred years ago, it used to be the Kingdom of Sorrow.

The Missing Mile: an endless sea surrounding Sorrow. It’s only visible to a few people, and it holds many secrets of the Fairy World.

Dragonbreath: what Charmwill smokes in his pipe. Smoking it isn’t easy. It lets him breathe out fire sometimes.

Alicorn: Loki’s special weapon given to him by his mother. It’s a unicorn’s horn. Someday, Loki intends to find the unicorn and give it back.

Sesame: a fortune cookie that Loki used to make his decisions for him.

Wondersack: given to Loki by Charmwill. It holds a lot of useful instruments in it.

Waker: an hourglass that can be adjusted to the Dreamhunter’s liking. It times how long one stays in the Dreamworld. Once the sand falls through, the dream ends.

Incubator: a word that if whispered into the dreamer’s ear, lets them remember a certain dream or memory where the dream should take place.

Magic Dust: makes you sleep. Some people are allergic to it, and it makes them laugh. It is very useful with bullies.

Books of Sands: books that dissolve into dust one page at a time once you read them.

Dreamhunter’s notebook: a notebook used to learn Dreamhunting, most of the pages are written by a V.H.

J.G.’s diary: a diary Axel found in the library. It probably belongs to Jacob Carl Grimm.

Sleeping Death: a condition where someone is cursed to sleep forever, it’s also used as a term meaning when someone is in a dream and their body is inanimate as if in a coma.

Dreamory: a dream that is based on the dreamer’s memory

The Dreamworld: the place where all Fairy Tale characters live and fairy tales take place.

Jawigi: the Brothers Grimm secret word to enter the Dreamworld.

Epidaurus Circle: the circle that encompasses the two mirrors, the dreamer and the Dreamhunter inside.

Dream Temple: everything inside the Epidaurus Circle.

Enchanta (Chanta for short): only Loki’s mom and Charmwill know what it really is. But Loki was sort of able to use it.

Obol coins: used on the eyes of the dreamer so they can’t connect the Dream World with the waking world.

Ora Pedora: an incantation Loki uses to make his Alicorn work

Swamp of Sorrow: a swamp in Sorrow that you have to cross to get to the Black Forest. Skeliman used to be the ferryman there. If you don’t like frogs, don’t go there.

The Belly and the Beast: best place to eat in Sorrow. Sticky Sweet Bones and Tragic Beans are said to be the best. The menu is much bigger though.

Buried Moon Cemetery: myth has it that the real moon is buried there.

The Schloss: the castle where Snow White was imprisoned. It was also the Sorrow’s royal family’s residence two centuries ago. It appears when it wants to. It also has a bad temper. You don’t want to go there, at least not with Axel.

Juniper Trees: spying trees that have eyes.
