As we walk on, I think of the thick walls of the fortress, the impenetrable-looking facade. I think of the fairy lights that guard every entrance and the dagger, which is supposedly so deadly to the Fey, and I can’t help but wonder how anyone managed to penetrate the defenses the Queen had built up around herself. If she was all-powerful, I can’t imagine how the Dark Ones rose up and overthrew her after she’d already killed their King.
