Randomness Book 2

No One Mourns the Wicked ~ Glornative Isle

*The late morning on the Glornative Isles buzzes with happiness and excitement at the news one of their greatest tormentors is gone. The rumors have spread past the borders of Glorious and Imaginative Isles, through the cold and forgiving snow lands, past the volcanic regions, and across the sea to Westeros and King's Landing*

Snow Soldier: Queen Freya, news from the islands! *He hands Freya a rolled-up envelope, and as she reads it, her eyes widen at the news* 

Freya: Dusk... she's dead?!

Snow Soldier: No, madam. The phoenix is very much alive! It's the Other Stone Girl who has succumbed. Dawn.

*In the volcanic regions, Emperor Abrasax and his wife Evanora also receive the news, and twin smirks form across their faces*

Emperor Abrasax: Well, well, well, looks like the Stone Girl wasn't as tough as she claimed.

Evanora: I don't know why you're so happy about this! If the Phoenix is capable of killing Dawn, she could be very much capable of defeating us!

Emperor Abrasax: *Chuckles* Do you not have faith in me, my darling? Dawn was just a dummy, a mere test to see how powerful the phoenix is. With Dawn gone, this gives us room to prepare and make sure the next villain will be no match for her.

*In King's Landing, Tyrion sits with his wife Lyra Stark as they eat their lunch together. Suddenly, a frantic servant runs in the gardens with a letter*

Servant: My Lord, My Lady, word from the Glornative Isles!

Tyrion: *Takes the letter and peels off the red candle wax that seals it*

Lyra: *She watches closely and notices Tyrion's eyes widen and he places a hand on his chest* My love, what's wrong?

Tyrion: The Other Stone Girl, she's dead...

Lyra: Dawn? The wicked witch?

Tyrion: You didn't know her like I did, Lyra...

*Back in the real world, Dusk sits in her bedroom, working on the last of her homework for the week, keeping in touch with the Creative Crew group chat when an incoming call arrives from Virginia*

Dusk: Vi, what's up?

Virginia: Dusk, you might want to head back to the Isles! Something's going on?

Dusk: Not another villain takeover, I hope?

Virginia: No, it's good news. But I think everyone will believe it when they hear it from you.

Dusk: Well, what is it?
