It’s a real-life fairytale when our heroes are transported to Earth-1193, a medieval version of Britain! Kitty is captured by an evil ogre along with Princess Catherine. Will the damsels be saved by their knights in shining armor and have their “happily ever after’s”?

After being zapped out of their reality by Phoenix and Widget, Excalibur find themselves in another dimension in which many fairytale creatures are real. However, no sooner have they arrived than a teenager wearing armour and riding a horse attempts to "slay" Lockheed. Fortunately, Lockheed isn't as small and weak as he looks - which he proves when he breathes fire at the boy. When he wakes, Excalibur question him and discover that he is called William and is Prince of this alternate England. That night, a huge creature attacks Excalibur and kidnaps Kitty. She is taken to a castle belonging to an ogre and is held captive along with another girl. Excalibur soon finds the ogre and Prince William rescues both of them.
