[color=DC9495]‘Oh, Lily, Alex, Connie and Gaia are around the corner…’[/color] Miko started saying, but Rachel had already ran off. [color=DC9495]‘Wait, stop!’[/color] she called in alarm, afraid Rachel was about to attack their friends, and ran after. Then… well, the incident turned into just Lily screaming and Rachel stopping, so it was fine. Alicia already explained why they were there, so no need to do that. Instead, Miko looked towards the map to see if there were any more unexpected events, and then to Connie when she addressed them.

[color=55B7AA]‘Oh, yeah, she was! She’s with Mac, have you met her before? Well, if you see someone riding a cockatrice, that’d be her. And she’s not Alicia’s aunt,’[/color] Ronin told Connie with a smile. Miko turned briefly to frown at her sister.

[color=DC9495]‘They should also join the attack soon, I assume,’[/color] Miko said. [color=DC9495]‘Good job saving Alex!’[/color] Miko said, smiling to Lily and the others. 

[color=55B7AA]‘Now for the remaining captives, and a Queen we need to handle…’[/color] Ronin told, moving a hand to grip her sword, ready to move.

[color=DC9495]‘Is… do we know where Brittany is?’[/color] Miko then asked, a bit more pensive, just in case.

[color=fc6828]‘Left! Now right! Yeah!’[/color] Mayra shouted out as she pulled on her unicorn ride to dodge various fire, then threw her actual fire behind her to block some of the shots and laughed as she had the foes chase after her. All accompanied by Brittany’s ridiculous song that the whole event seemed to somehow follow the rhythm of. Then… the river extended, and Mayra turned the unicorn around to face their foes to delight in seeing them be pierced by tridents and chewed by giant sharks. Delightful.

Then the mermaid princess showed up, and suggested Mayra was here to mount a resistance against the Queen’s soldiers. Honestly, Mayra hadn’t thought a second further than what was going to happen to the soldiers pursuing them, but…

[color=fc6828]‘Oh, absolutely! Let’s revolution this! Let’s gather up everyone we can, and tear the Queen’s army a new one! Let’s go where the fighting is fiercest!’[/color]

She turned to lead the army… somewhere, she hadn’t really thought of where, but the mermaid totally had a good suggestion that would achieve the intended goal, probably. In the meantime, she poked Brittany’s cheek.

[color=fc6828]‘Hey, Brit? Got a song for leading a rebel army to destroy a queen’s army?’[/color] she asked, and then just kicked the sides of the unicorn to launch into full gallop, wherever they were going.

Lily scared Mariette half to death by letting her hear the scream, afraid that the Queen would hear it and react, not to mention scaring Mariette of what that scream might mean was currently happening to Lily. However, the Queen seemed to not react to it, so Mariette had to gamble on it being a minor incident. It was not as if she could assist as she was now, regardless.

… First mirror?

Mariette stepped through, and found herself in an underground garden. The vegetation grew thick, with spiky green leaves covering most available space. Thick, wooden trees created a veritable forest, their crowns covering the roof with green. Yet, it was underground, a cavern roof sealing the plants underground, and it was lit only by the light they brought with them. While her portal magic was sealed, it was simple enough for Mariette to use her other specialization, holding up her hand-mirror of a mystic weapon to illuminate the place for herself and the Queen.

Esther’s domain.

[color=077ae6]‘How…?’[/color] Mariette asked, a bit taken aback. Now, she wasn’t exactly THAT shocked, it had been visited in the past, but that the Queen could just directly venture here was quite unnerving, given they had been trying to keep this place hidden. So many pages ago, the Queen says, Mariette’s thrall had taken root here…

Speaking of which…

Mariette turned her hand-mirror, a bright flash freezing the multiple vines and creaking branches that were starting to move, intending on converging on the trespasser. Instead, Mariette directly illuminated the source, the silent, beautiful woman standing like a piece of art carved entirely out of wood, staring soullessly towards the visitors of her world.

[color=077ae6]‘Esther, stand down,’[/color] Mariette said. [color=077ae6]‘She’s… she’s with me.’[/color]

Esther stood motionlessly, staring blankly towards Mariette, her commander, and then the Queen that they’d had briefings explaining just how dangerous a woman she was. The vines, all around that had intended on attempting to capture the Queen, for obviously this must have been a trap to bring her somewhere where Esther could have helped in the battle, started to rescind…

Left there was simply the immobile wooden statue of the woman known as Esther, which despite looking so lifeless Mariette knew could creak alive upon moment’s notice to ensnare any prey. And behind her…

Behind her was a black, bulky round frame, like built into a rock, with a red jewel gleaming as the only light other than that which Mariette was emitting. The frame itself, the mirror that they had placed here, displayed nothing but the blackest of darkness, promising nothing but void for whatever passed through it. And, for anyone nearby, they felt a light, magical pull towards it…

[color=077ae6]‘Mother…’[/color] Mariette turned to the Queen, and started speaking a bit more silently. For Esther not to [i]necessarily[/i] hear. [color=077ae6]‘This will… bring the attention of the others, my patron included. I will need to explain your presence, why you would help Asengav.’[/color]
