| Nine months later, Anne returns to Lewiston to prepare for the Royal Candy Fair and runs into Kat along the way. Kat informs Anne about this year's unusually low crop yield of sugar apples, and harvesting by individuals is banned. In order to participate, Anne will need to make her own supply of silver sugar by temporarily residing at the Radcliffe workshop and having not been informed of the edict on purpose due to her reputation, she heads to the workshop. At the workshop, she meets up with Jonas and fellow artisan Sammy Jones, and Sammy bullies Anne until Keith Powell arrives to intervene. Needing to find a place for Challe to stay since he is not a labor fairy, Keith decides to make a confection modeled off Challe to allow him to stay. The next day after spending a night at the dormitory, Keith explains he helped Anne get in because his situation is similar to her's as he is the son of the previous silver sugar viscount Edward Powell. While Edward came from the Paige school, Keith chose to join the Radcliffe school instead in order to be treated like a regular artisan. Keith did not enter the exhibit while Edward was alive because winning would draw criticism for receiving special treatment, while losing would label him a big disappointment for failing to live up to his family's expectations. Afterwards, Keith privately tells Challe he wants to compete against a worthy opponent, which he sees in Anne and not in Sammy or Jonas, and this is likely Anne's last chance to win as due to her reputation, her competitors will likely do everything to stop Anne from acquiring sugar apples. ||||||

However, the humans and fairies hated each other and went to war with Cedric reluctantly killing the fairy king. Cedric created a confection of the fairy king to remember him hoping Cedric's vision of the world happens, which is why the royal family favors fairies for confections.
