  2. Summary

    It’s as if living in a world where the fey are supreme isn’t enough.

    They trade through tithe, wordplay, kisses and gifts; suitably pretty trinkets that they deem to be enough and in return, they live in a world where humans are their toys and carers. Some are pests, sleeping and feeding on the weeds in his small garden in the balcony; others are more demanding, miracle workers and dream stealers. Everything has a price, and the most powerful are willing to twist it as much as they can. Others won’t care and live in dalliance, serving as lanterns at night because they can’t help but glow, however they feel and chant to the stars. Some will be more vengeful and leave handprints on the windows, difficult to wash away; they are the pettier creatures, fickle to their nature, a slender grin playing on the curve of their cheeks.

    The residents of Tobiume Hotel are just trying to get by, and struggle to maintain the frayed edges of their humanity.

    Summary

    Sir Nicholas the Punisher has been charged with a mission: enter the Forgotten Woods, track and trap the Beast Lord who lives there, and return it, alive, to the cult of the God-Emperor. The land is dying of a mysterious blight, and only the support of a few unhealthy Plants is keeping the last scraps of humanity alive. According to the Emperor, only the sacrifice of the Beast Lord will renew the land and save everyone.

    Nicholas is wholly unprepared for what, and who, he finds in the woods.

    [A fantasy AU with inspiration broadly drawn from Princess Mononoke, The Green Knight, and The Last Unicorn. Written for the vashwoodbigbang]
