Now, you just need to get back to Princess Petra and the Castle, your home away from home. That’s where you are now, Hunny, making your way back to the Kingdom of Ronzio Castle, step by step: over shimmering puddles of fairyberry juice alongside Princess Paua; doing your best to follow behind Princess Pia…without getting lost in the meandering darkness…again. Last time in our fairy tale, you got to know your new friend Princess Pia, and her wild ways, a bit more. Though she claims to be sole Princess of the forest and all the fairies it contains, she doesn’t seem to have much sway over the same fairies that she calls her own. That was made abundantly clear, and for Pia—annoyingly clear—when the fairies interrupted her attempts to control them, buzzing about her ears and directly undermining the authoritative persona she was wearing like a mask. Mrs. Honeybee’s gentle ways seem to garner more command of the mischievous fairies with none of the bravado that Pia forces onto them, and that leaves you wondering what makes these fairies tick, what role Mrs. Honeybee has in this quest—since she always seems to go missing or…reappearing out of nowhere—and what all goes on out here in the great beyond; beyond the confines of the Kingdom that felt so expansive not hours ago. You’ve gotten a good glimpse of the forest, seen through its cover of darkness, and peered into the inner-workings of the wild, but you sense that there is much more to see. And that…there’s something….you’re not seeing…despite your best attempts at vigilance. Princess Paua has lost interest in conquering the forest and has set her sights, and her heart, on reconnecting with Princess Pia. She all but begged Pia to join you for a sleepover at the Castle, for one night’s reprieve from the harsh conditions that Pia flaunts.
