Other Locations
For some Fairy Tale Land locations, there is ambiguity surrounding the locations of the following and which region of the land they belong to. These are:
- The Empire, homeland of Mulan
- Hangman's Island, an island outside the force of the Second Dark Curses
Trivia
On-Screen Notes
- The exact size and scope of the Fairy Tale Land is not known.
- According to one of Merlin's books, some of the areas in Fairy Tale Land are known as ridings. The Enchanted Forest, and the "wetlands to the East" of Camelot, are two of the ridings.[3] ("Siege Perilous")
- Ridings are also used as a designation within the Enchanted Forest itself. David's board in "Murder Most Foul", which maps a series of taverns located in the Enchanted Forest, mentions an location known as the East Riding.[4] ("Murder Most Foul")
- Fairy Tale Land can be accessed;
- Via the Mad Hatter's hat. ("Hat Trick")
- By undoing the Dark Curse. ("Going Home," "New York City Serenade")
- With the power of the Darkness in the Vault of the Dark One. It fetches a new Dark One from wherever to the vault, therefore the Enchanted Forest. ("Operation Mongoose Part 2," "The Dark Swan," "Birth")
- Also, every other way that can be used in a magical location is possible due to the location being a magical world. (For more information, see World-crossing.)
- Some stories that can be reached by a book, like Ali Baba, which is present in Fairy Tale Land, much like the Land Without Magic. ("Street Rats")
