**Enter the Wigsnatch - Part Two** is the second episode of Queens of Adventures Legend. It is the second half of the first Queens of Adventure live stream and the conclusion of the story of how the queens met.

## Synopsis

The four queens, Arson, Butylene, Fraya, and Harlotte, are competing in the Weavington Hollow Wigsnatch Commemorative Festival's drag competition and have already received points in several fields. Only two challenges remain as they cross the field.

#### Cher Your Knowledge

As they approach the next challenge, the crowd begins to hype the team more and more, and nearly no one but Bunberry notices the rumbling in the tree lines. They find a small tent, dimly lit with candles. Inside is a woman with leather jacket, sheer body stocking and curly hair. She announces herself as a priestess of Cher and this, her temple. They will each be asked a question to test their knowledge of the Goddess.

Fraya fails her question, and tries to give advice through charades to her teammates, but hurts her back in the process. Harlotte tries to channel divine influence, but is stumped. Butylene doesn't trust her own connection to the goddess and guesses wrong. Fraya recalls detailed artwork of the Goddess from thousands of years ago, but could not name her pet. Arson correctly knew that Cher once crashed a birdless carriage, but survived. Finally, Fraya signals Butylene with the correct location of a tattoo on the goddess.

The Priestess suspects divine intervention, but admires Arson's knowledge, and awards a point, despite the 50% accuracy.

#### Share Your Knowledge

They move on to the final challenge, with a crowd following them. Bunberry hears something again, but dismisses it as she pushes aside the flap of a striped tent. Two dwarves sit at a picnic table. One of them gestures to the queens. They must each provide a makeup tutorial to the judges, and keep their audience's attention with flair.

Arson, discusses skin prep, adding in science and dramatic hand gestures. Harlotte begins to display all of her different lip tools before her favorite lipstick breaks in her hand, causing her to cry, but she muscles through it. Butlyne teaches how to apply false gems to your face to distract from any horns or scales you might have. Fraya discusses beard cover despite not using makeup or having a beard.

The judges have followed along, and one shouts, "We... Look... Fabulous!" and award a final point.

#### Attack on the Festival

Bunberry leads them outside to pass time til the winners are announced. Suddenly, there is a bellow at the forest... and the cat from the platform challenge walks by. Then there is another bellow and three massive ogres emerge from the forest. Bunberry says there haven't been ogres for hundreds of years. The ogres begin tearing through the crowd.

One particularly ragged, slightly smaller ogre, stomps towards the queen. He grabs a handful of wigs from a stand, and stuffs them into his mouth. Fraya throws a copper piece at her as a tip.

Harlotte yells at it, asking why it is attacking, bow at the ready. The creature says it is hungry and knows of the legendary festival with wigs. Harlotte fires a warning shot past the ogre's head. They still throw their javelin at Harlotte, just missing her.

Fraya tries to attack with her trident, but faceplants into the mud. Butylene throws her second acid vial, which also misses, burning more grass. Arson casts *poison spray,*landing the first damage of the fight. The next attack from Harlotte also misses. The ogre lands his first hit on Fraya with his club. She dizzily gets up and stabs him in the thigh while Butylene hurls a bomb. It blasts across the ogre, but also singes Fraya and Harlotte. Arson sprays more poison from her unhinged jaw.

Harlotte chugs the health potion, shatters the bottle, and stabs the ogre, who misses yet another attack on Butylene.

Using the leg embedded trident as a jumping board, Fraya climbs the ogre and stabs him with her glaive. Another bomb and another poison spray strike the ogre, the party finally getting into the grove of the battle. The ogre topples, and the remaining wigs tumble from its mouth.

The other ogres, seeing this, beat a retreat, not realizing there would be resistance.

#### Aftermath and Contest Results

The crowd picks themselves up. The judges gather around the queens. They remind everyone the point of the festival was to honor the Great Queens, whose biggest trait was their steadfast belief in standing their ground and defending others. "Today, you have made those Great Queens proud." They are declared the winners.

Muscular fieldhands hoist the four queens into the air. Bunberry says they should put on an act. Across the field, a man in a top hat with orange hair rubs his chin and nods.
