## Summary

Titania leads the party to a throne room where her husband, Oberon, and his lacky, Puck, reside. Puck is very happy to see Hoopla and dances with her. Oberon calls the group to the throne as Fenix hides behind Hyacinth. Hoopla takes her throne beside Titania's as Simon gets nervous. As they bow and move forward, Titania assures that the party is safe with her. As Fenix moves closer, he gets more and more nervous.

Titania looks over Simon and notes that she nor Oberon can fix Simon's condition. She explains that the royal fae and their court were supposed to reside in the fae wild. The royals explain that they are aware of Acharn's plan and with Hyacinth's help figure out that the plan didn't work because the fae weren't drained completely. It apparently wasn't the only thing that contributed to the banishment of the royal fae. They could summon portals to the fae wilds but couldn't pass through it. Most importantly all fae magic had been removed from the fey wilds. The party is shocked by the sight of the fae wilds. Apparently the Grand Seelie were awoken and thought that the fae were cooperating with the cult. Thus the fae were punished and removed.

Simon knows he has to fix this and Panne notes that the rest of them will help. Titania notes of Simon's grand magic being stronger than both her and Oberon's. She hopes that the Grand Seelie will help Simon return to normal. The Unseelie or dark fae are also revealed to likely be upset with the Seelie given the circumstances. Titania tells Hoopla to go with them while telling them to find a Grand Seelie with a modest temperament nearby.

The royals teleport the party to the entrance of the Mistwood Forest. Fenix lets out his anxiety and mentions that he never wants to go back there again. Hyacinth is able to faintly sense three Grand Seelie in different directions as they hear a scream. The party heads into Faykeep to see the villagers panicking and hiding in their homes. Apparently some strange fae creatures have rolled into town and began killing people. Fenix deduces that they're cultists and heads to the inn to check on Tina with Panne close behind.

They arrive at the inn to find Tina choking the last cultist alive with a whip. The other two cultists are dead thanks to two of Tina's friends, Sateet and Brian. Sateet looks over the group, Simon in particular and says he works at Windy Oaks. Sateet leaves to check on his family after Panne checks his hands. As the party contemplates a long-term solution to the recent problem, Simon gives a prayer for the dead bodies. The party agrees on going to Belgate to petition for aid and find something in the waters near Belgate that Brian mentions.

Fenix, Bata and Simon help Tina clean up while Panne prepares meals for everyone. Everyone enjoys the food including Fenix who still eats in private. Hoopla tries to sneak a peek at his face but Panne catches her. As Panne cleans up, Hoopla finally sneaks a peek at Fenix's face. He's mentions he doesn't like his face when Hoopla thinks it's cool. She does mention that she'll keep it a secret. Ronan ends up liking Tina when she downs half a pint of ale without much effort.

Tina lets them stay for free again as thanks for the assistance. Simon and Fenix leave briefly to bury the bodies on the road with Hoopla tagging along hiding in Fenix's hood.
