After an hour or two wandering, Hollie finally found the start of the forest Way again.
"OK, we're here. I'll keep my eyes open for any more traps this time too." She told Evelyn, before heading into the woods once more, weaving a snaking path through the trees.

Evelyn just nodded and followed Hollie. She had no idea where she was going and the scenery just kept getting stranger and stranger. After a while she couldn't identify any of the plants.

After half an hour, the trees began to thin, and the plants began to change. Evelyn was looking bewildered, but Hollie started to smile, and began reminiscing.
"I'm home." She thought to herself, as they wandered into the clearing that marked the start of Arctis Tor's Gardens, and the Palace itself finally came into view.

Evelyn had to admit that Arctis Tor was one of the most beautiful places she had ever seen. She wished she had a camera or some talent for drawing.

"Evelyn, welcome to Arctis Tor. Palace of Queen Mab." Hollie said. "And my former home."
She began walking towards the main gates.

"Why would you move away?" Evelyn asked, "this place is gorgeous. I understand the level of craziness that you folks all seem to possess, but you really have aesthetics down to a science."

"It's something all Sidhe have to do at some point." Hollie replied. "Still, very few decide not to come back. Especially at Samhain and Beltaine."

"Yeah, well this place is amazing. I'm just going to assume that magic helped to build it all?" Evelyn asked, looking around in wonder.

"Magic didn't help. It's almost interwoven into foundations." Hollie said. "Arcadia pretty much lives and breathes on magic. It's why we Sidhe are so good with the stuff."

"Oh, well that makes sense. So what do we do now?" Evelyn asked. The Palace looked both close and far away at the same time and she wasn't sure exactly how they would reach it.
