FFT: Chapter 11--Ala Dean and the Wonderful Lamp (Part I)

In which Aladdin is whitewashed and moved to Ye Olde Fantasy Europe; there’s a lot more mention of rape; taxes can be paid in people, especially women and children; Allie’s mother loathes royalty and aristocracy while wanting her daughter to marry into either; Allie’s “uncle,” Not!Jafar, pervs on her and suggests that she become a high-class prostitute; and Allie is about as passive as a person can be while not being comatose.

Didn’t you always feel that the story of Aladdin was missing all of this? [/sarcasm mode]
