souls have been lost and the panic grows

[That... that was hell, actually. Wendy didn't like that at all. After the trial she... has to head to the kitchen and hopefully not find clay shit everywhere. She needs to do something to keep things under control. To keep things going.

She's not a great cook but she knows the basics. Meat. Bread. Cheese. Something warm for the belly to drink. She's nervous when she works but she's relentless. There's no asking for help from her as she makes a spread for everyone. Then... she's moving all of it not to the eatery but the bonfire.

Making makeshift tables around it and placing trays of food and drink. Even setting up a chair for Alex a good distance away from the fire but close enough that he can be part of things if he wants to.

Wendy, with her careful writing, writes up some notes and hands them out to everyone if she can find them or if not under their door.

Food at the bonfire and the area around it. Attendance not mandatory but it's probably better for all of us if we stick together. Bring more food and drink if you want.

Wendy


...She can't control other people but she can try to suggest.]

The fairies weave their way into stories, desperate to maintain their power by ensuring that every destiny goes as planned, again and again. Architects of suffering feigning surprise when their victims don't accept a happy ending as justification.

[ a beat. she realizes that was a little much. ]

They want to keep the citizens of the Neverafter trapped in their destinies. My fellow princesses and I have taken up arms against them.

As a Princess ought! That is a righteous cause!

[ "Princess" is a title a lot more tied up with combat roles in Equestria than elsewhere, which Luna has not remotely realized yet! ]

I like to think so. It's been... the fight has been complicated recently. But we are very close to ensuring no one has to worry about destiny ever again.

[ She wishes she wasn't starting to doubt their solution. That Rosamund's solution seemed less possible. ]

That is excellent!

[ Luna does not pick up on this conflict! ]

Destiny can be seen in some ways, in my world, but it is certainly nothing so direct as that.

I am glad to hear it. The fewer places like the Neverafter out there, the better.
