Ok, While we take the approach that Once will incorporate stories to which Disney has rights and/or has done adaptations in the past, I think the best character set and story would be to bring in the Black Cauldron, but don't use the Disney version (which was imo really bad), but go back to the original works (which I enjoyed immensly). Done right, you could drive a whole arc on the Chronicles of Prydain (as the series is called), and Princess Eilonwy makes a perfect and princessly addition. And, as I recall the story, she is very much the strong and independent type.
