| The screams bring the attention of all. Rolling on the floor puts most of the fire out, but where their hands are clasped, flames emerge. Verro and Marcus are clearly not meaning to embark on a close and trusting relationship! The queen of the fairies stands over them, laughing. Tabitha stabs her in the back. | The screams bring the attention of all. Rolling on the floor puts most of the fire out, but where their hands are clasped, flames emerge.

| - | The hedonistic festival disintegrates into a mélée of tussling fairies, burning figures, mesmeric enchantments and the wrath of the queen of the fairies. The adventurers try to flee, but for the slight caused by the treacherous backstab, the Queen will not let Tabitha leave. Words fly, and the next moment, the Faerie Queen (for it is she!) summons her Champion: Brother Miller! Brother Miller is confounded by the strange circumstances, but defends his Queen. | + | The hedonistic festival disintegrates into a mélée of tussling fairies, burning figures, mesmeric enchantments and the wrath of the queen of the fairies, who turns on Tabitha. Dan intercedes: he will fight the fey queen in her place. Acquiescing, the Faerie Queen (for it is she!) summons her Champion: Brother Miller! Brother Miller is confounded by the strange circumstances, but before he can defend his Queen, she is once again stabbed in the back by [[??]]. Falling, the Faerie Queen curses Tabitha: when she enters the flux seven years from now, she will //burn//. |
| Meanwhile, Felicity has been lured into the fire ring and is feeling the compulsion to dance. Egged on by eager fairies, she is burning with embarrassment. Simon uses the mesmeric mirror he recovered to attract fairies into the ring of fire, where they too cannot leave and begin to dance. | Meanwhile, Felicity has been lured into the fire ring and is feeling the compulsion to dance.

| - | With the chaos nearly under control, the party prepare to evacuate. Lucian flux-shapes a bucket of water and extinguishes space for Felicity to escape the dance ring. Pairs of the fairies start to try to escape the fire: one escapade is the start of a bright future of love together, one results in a writhing pair of glamorous figures being doused with mulled wine. The fairies have lost their festive elation and Brother Miller has carried off the weakened body of the Faerie Queen. The adventurers flee. | + | With the chaos nearly under control, the party prepare to evacuate. Lucian flux-shapes a bucket of water and extinguishes space for Felicity to escape the dance ring.

| Congregating outside, they persuade themselves that only by tracking down the Faerie Queen can they protect Weftwell from the dangerous flux fairies every midsummer fête. | Congregating outside, they persuade themselves that only by tracking down the Faerie Queen can they protect Weftwell from the dangerous flux fairies every midsummer fête. | ||

His lover is unsure whether to be relieved, or disappointed at the loss of the Jam & Chutney Competition prize. |
| They enjoy the fête, with the exception of Felicity, who flees as soon as possible. Tabitha seeks out gossip and new friends, whilst Lucian forms connections with the weaving trade. Simon corners the rogue dealer who sold him a ragdoll and a bull story about its powers. He gets his money back and ceases the man's permanent personal raincloud. Verro chats to Brother Miller, whom he has identified as refreshingly sane. | They enjoy the fête, with the exception of Felicity, who flees as soon as possible.

| Lucian spills volumes of information to the Wayfinders' Guild, including divulging Brother Miller's role. He pushes for further investigation and action at next year's midsummer fête, which the Guild notes down and noncommittal says they might do something about it if they aren't too busy at the time. Lucian also leverages many notable citizens into wearing Weftwell cloth, keeping his end of the bargain. | Lucian spills volumes of information to the Wayfinders' Guild, including divulging Brother Miller's role.
