Summary
Before their Kingdoms' fall, when the Golden Cheese Kingdom and the Vanilla Kingdom were allies, Smoked Cheese was close with one of the Vanilla Kingdom's knights. But with the vast distance between their Kingdoms and the strength of their loyalty to their homes, they knew they could never be anything more than close friends. And just friends they remained, even when the war threatened both their lives.
Unaware they both still live, they're haunted by the words left unsaid, and wishing for a second chance.

Summary
Simple, elegant, and modest. To live and die with honor, and to never forget the harshness of life. That was the way of the Cacao Kingdom. Most Cacaoans dressed in dark clothing, to absorb as much heat as possible, and to show the beasts of the wilderness that they knew no fear. Some were even bold enough to tame some of these beasts, to aid their survival in the wilderness, or to be their loyal companions.
When Caramel Arrow first met the mysterious visitor, she had mistaken her for one of these tamers thanks to the crow perched upon her shoulder. She quickly learns this visitor is actually an envoy of a distant Kingdom, and one of the closest friends to its royal family. She was there, it would seem, to improve relations between the Kingdoms, and establish a connection of sorts between them.
Now, if only Caramel Arrow could stop putting her foot in her mouth every time she tried to speak with this pretty visitor, that would be nice. It certainly doesn’t help that the visitor leaves her horrified with every encounter due to how shamelessly she interacts with everyone, teasing everyone she meets, including the king himself.
These next few weeks were going to be very, very long.

Summary
Hundreds of years ago, the Ancients gave their lives to stop Dark Enchantress. Their Soul Jams shattered, the shards scattering across the world, marking the end of the Dark Flour War.
The Divines kept watch as time passed. Evil inevitably rose again. Some of these evils threatened all of Earthbread, prompting intervention. Using the shards of Soul Jam, the Divines would task chosen Cookies with defeating whatever had arisen. These heroes banded together, emerging victorious time and time again. History has deemed these various heroes the "Soul Wielders."
It has now been decades since the last group of Soul Wielders completed their mission, and Earthbread has been enjoying a steady era of peace. That is, until a light falls upon the opulent Crème Republic. Little shards glow among the dust.
The largest group of Soul Wielders in history has been summoned to defeat an evil so dangerous, not even the Ancients managed to truly defeat it.[On hiatus!]

There exists a vast world in the dreamlands that we frolic through behind our closed eyes, one subject to as much whimsy and irony as the waking world it is tied to.
