Plot Summary: A beautiful and elegant female unicorn was just minding her own business upon strolling the open fields until she encounters a riddle speaking butterfly. According to this butterfly, he claims that she is the last unicorn in the world. Unable to accept this as an actual fact, she sets out on a journey in order to know for sure if she really is the last of the unicorns. During her quest, she is joined by Schmendrick, a second-rate magician, Molly Grue, a middle-aged woman whose lifelong dream is seeing a real unicorn, and the kind hearted Prince Lir, all accompany the unicorn until making it to the castle of Prince Lir's adoptive father King Haggard. It has been said that the king is responsible for the disappearance of the unicorns due to him having control over a monstrous entity known as the Red Bull.
