The Baron sat on the left of his mother, the Dowager Griselda, while Awena was on her right side at the front of the room.  Everyone else gave respect due to the new royalty of the Realm - the new Queen Ffion and Troll King Dulbbe, who sat facing towards the head table wondering what this meeting could be about.  The Gooblin King was not into protocol.  He preferred to sit off in the grey hidden shadows of the back of the room observing what was going on.  He told others that he preferred to be off to himself, but most believed it was because he couldn't stand all the bright lights.

​In the section reserved for the minions (so they could be called upon to deliver edicts from the council) Arnie had taken one of the seats because she had never sat at council before.  It's not like a 'Borrower' is invited to many functions since they have a tendency to 'find' things that they take with them when they leave.  Leaning over to Meen she asked in a low voice "What's so important about a dragonfly?  I chase them all of the time when I am not out borrowing."

Meen whispered "I am not sure if it's the same thing.  It could be I suppose, but I remember once that the old King of Shadows' referred to having a relic of one posted in an ancient scroll.  It was an ancient way of sending important messages when the Dragons where around."

​"At least the tea is better than what I brew at the Bellwether," Snoop thought while he slowly sipped a little.  "I might have to make this cup last a long time since it doesn't appear that anyone has arrived yet but Granny Flare."

"You were right," Dulbbe said to Drat.  "It was uncomfortable besides being dirty too.  I don't want to have to use that route again unless we absolutely have too.  I mean, I can usually see well in the dark, but not in that pitch black hole you took me through.  I don't know how you did it because I could not see my hand in front of my face!  And don't tell me what was making that sound when were were walking around down there... I don't even what to know who or what it was," Dulbbe finished with a shudder as he brushed his clothes with his hands.

"Sorry Sire, but you did say you wanted to get here fast," Drat answered (but not before Snoop noticed that the rat had answered with a small smile on his lips).  Still smiling, Drat stepped aside and motioned for his King to enter the council chamber first as he followed.

"Interesting," thought Snoop.  "I wonder who else will appear."  Just as he said that, the coach with Queen Ffion pulled up being pulled by no less than four Nytemares.  "She must have been in a hurry," he decided.  "This must be important!"  

As Snoop continued to sip on his tea, he was able to observe several more arrivals for the meeting.  There was Hewy, Hir'aeth the Gooblin King, the Goodie sisters, Awena from the Sleeping Sisters, the Baron and his mother the Dowager, and even Dewin the Wizard.  All VMPs indeed!  It was the last guest that appeared the made Snoop realize that he had to get into the meeting somehow.  It was that young Wish Dragon who had transformed into a Moon Dragon, Drai'ochtluan.  "I am glad that he likes to go by 'Dree' for short," Snoop sighed to himself.  "I would have to look up the spelling every time I want to write it down."

Not realizing that Snoop meant it as a bad thing because she liked to jump everywhere, she shrugged his comment off and pulled on his sleeve again.  When she thought she had his full attention, she delivered the message she was sent out with.  "The Council asks if you would join them in the council chamber.  They said they did not want to start without you."

Snoop was flabbergasted... how did they know that is exactly where he wanted to be?

​There is even a local newspaper called the Bellwether that is ran by some crazy newspaper editor called 'Snoop'.  But the Dowager Griselda has something truly unique as they are created from wishes.  They are the Flutterbys.  Which is why she is using them to call out the council for an emergency session as she wishes everyone there.

Between finding out she was a Nyte Shade and now the Queen of the Shadows' Realm, she still is trying to get her priorities established.  "There is so much that I have to learn and so little time in a day," she thought to herself as she sat at her desk reading some of the material left to her by Awena.  As Ffion started to turn a page, she noticed the Flutterby on the rose and smiled.  She gazed on it warmly as she knew that it must be from her counselor, Griselda.  Before she could even acknowledge it,  the Flutterby proceeded to tell her about the emergency meeting to be held at the Village on the Wall council room.  "The Dowager would never tell me 'Now' if it wasn't an emergency," Ffion thought to herself.  She immediately sent for Scarlet to ready her coach with the Nytemares.  They would get her there in a flash.

​"Sire.  I suggest that you take a break from the tediousness of your new duties and possibly retire to your chambers," Drat told King Dulbbe.  At first Dulbbe only stared at Drat, but quickly he realized that Drat had something to tell him.  "An outstanding idea," Dulbbe replied as he stood and preceded his counselor to his private chambers.  Once inside and the door was closed, the appearance of decorum quickly disappeared.  Dulbbe turned to Drat and asked, "What did I do wrong now?  This being King business is a lot harder than being an accountant."

"Sire, you are doing fine.  Except, maybe you might want to consider growling at your subjects a little more often.  It is good to keep them concerned that you might do something to them.  It seemed to work wonders for your predecessor," answered Drat.  "But that is not why I suggested you adjourn.  As you were speaking a Flutterby arrived from the Dowager." 

It was then Dulbbe realized that the Flutterby had flown into his chambers when they entered and was now sitting on his shoulder.  Quickly it whispered Griselda's message.  "The Dowager is calling an emergency meeting of the council," the King told Drat.  "Any suggestions on how to get there fast?"  Drat only smiled and said, "You aren't going to like this as it is not too comfortable... but we have secret ways..."

As the Flutterby tells Granny the message, she slowly closes her cookbook.  "If this meeting is what I think it is,  then everyone there will need something to eat.  I have never known Griselda to hold a short meeting," she ponders.  "I should also probably bring that old Dragon book I got from Atian's library before he left on his trip.  It will be needed I am thinking."

"Something always seems to happen to my friends and it's because of me," the Dragon sniffled.  "Even my Spite (The CAT) was taken," he cried silently to himself.  "I should leave but where would I go?" the Dragon was thinking just before the tingling came over him.  Just like Ffion, the tingling started in his claws but was soon spreading over his entire body.  "What is this?" he thought.  Was it something else that would take away another one of his friends?

Almost as soon as it started, the tingling stopped and the Dragon was himself again.  "I need to be going now before something else happens," he told himself and started for the doors.  He had only taken a couple of steps before he was blocked by the Goodie sisters.  They had been watching him as if they already knew that he was going to leave.  "Excuse me," he said as he tried to get around one of them to leave, but they kept finding some way to always be in front of him.

Releasing the Dragon's paw, Goodie4U continued where her sister left off.  "The prophecy told of two outcomes.  One for good and the other for evil.  The sacrifice of magic from a Nyte Shade was what was required for the mixture (transformation) to be complete.  Your father offered himself when we thought it would be from you, but in doing so, he also gave both you and Hungry (his old self)  a great gift."

As Goodie4U paused, Goodie2shues continued.  "You and Hungry have been magically joined just as a dragon was when a Nyte Shade sacrificed her powers to her friend.  This is what created the first magical Dragon.  We were not sure at first if the ingredients would mix (the joining), but when we saw both of you a few minutes ago surrounded by the blue aura, we knew it had happened."

Before the Queen or the Newborn Dragon could ask what it all meant, Goodiegood again spoke.  "My Queen, as both you and the Dragon's powers grow you will both find that future events will need the two of you jelling together.   What those events will be, we cannot say," as she looked at both Ffion and the Dragon, " but you also both share the magical powers of the moonflowers."

Now they were even more confused than before!!!  "We really don't understand what you just said," started the Dragon, but before he could finish the sentence Ffion did. "What you are telling us is that we are magically joined?" finishing the sentence.  Startled, the Queen and the Dragon looked at each other.  As one started to speak, the other would either nod their head yes or no.  Each one knew what the other would say. ​

Realizing that another crisis was over, the Goodie sisters smiled at each other and started leaving to return to their cottage.  Before they could get to the door, this time the Dragon stopped them.  "Before you go, can you at least tell me what happened to me?  What am I?" he asked the sisters.

"Why you are one of the most powerful Dragons ever known.  Your transformation has changed you from being just a Wish Dragon but to a Moon Dragon," Goodiegood told him.  "As Hunter told you that if you ate the blue rose you would no longer be 'hungry'. He did not mean that you would not want to eat, he meant that you will change and become someone greater.  You are now Drai'ochtluan (pronounced - dree-ach-loo-am), the Magic Moon."

​"Cool!" replied the Dragon, "but I think I like to be just Dree to my friends", winking at the sisters and Ffion.

​Gently he sat her on one of padded chairs to recover as Awena continued.  "The question is, what do we do now?"  It seemed that no one had an answer.

Finally it was the newly re-born Dragon who spoke.  "It's all my fault," he said with a tear in his eye.  "If it wasn't for me none of this would have happened."  

"Nonsense!  Now listen everyone... this was but one of two possible outcomes from the moment the Dragon tablet was found.  With what it foretold would happen long ago, I am glad for one that goodness prevailed," said Goodiegood.  "It could have gone either with a new beginning or a recipe for despair and the ending of the Realm.  We should rejoice that the Shadows' King gave us a new beginning!"

Realizing that the Goodie sister was right, the Dowager decided it was time to start that beginning.  "Goodiegood is right.  The proper time for mourning will come when we know for sure that those who entered the portal are truly gone." ​

Both surprised and flustered, at first Ffion did not know what to say.  Seeing everyone bowing was a shock to her.  "This is an honor for my father, not me," she thought.  It is when she looked at Hir'aeth looking at her and seeing him nod his head is when she realized that she would have to make some decisions - she was  now the Queen of the Shadows' Realm!

Slowly raising from the chair, she started to speak but it came out more like a squeak.  After taking a breath and a few swallows (which also gave her another second to gather her thoughts) she began.  "I thank you all for your allegiance and your good wishes.  In the absence of the King, I will do my best to keep our Realm prospering.  My first acts are to make the Dowager Griselda one of my advisors and as my father had requested that Awena of the Sleeping Sisters be the royal tutor."

Deciding this would be the best time for him to act, the Gooblin King waited until the Princess (" I must remember she is the Queen now," thought Hir'aeth) had finished - he made his move.  "Queen Ffion.  With the absence of the Troll King, someone should take his place to guide his kingdom.  As the nearest monarch, I offer my services until his return."  

"Ah... the politics begins," muttered the Dowager.  As she was sitting near Ffion, it was only the new queen that heard her.  Being raised in a royal household, the new queen smiled to herself as she had learned quickly what to do from the many times of watching her father.

"Oh great King.  I thank you for the offer of your service, but another has already been selected to replace the Troll King.  A distant relative of Druzzy is already here in the room.  Hewy, I ask if you will be the acting Troll King until his return?" Ffion said as she looked at the startled troll.

"It must be Dulbbe!" she whispered so that only the Queen would hear.  Shocked at hear this, Ffion turned to look at Dulbbe who was still bowing and looking at the floor.  "Dulbbe, is this true?" she asked.

"Yes my Queen.  It is.  I am the younger brother of King Druzzy," the troll answered, still not taking his eyes off of the floor.  "Your father knew but he told me when he made me the keeper of his accounts that it was because of my skills with numbers and not because of who I was.  That is why I told no one else.  Hewy, being a troll knew because he often would perform at the Troll King's events and would see me there with my brother."

This revelation surprised even the Gooblin King, but before he could speak again, the Queen asked her question now to Dulbbe.  "Will you be the acting Troll King until his return?"  Not wanting to let her down and only now partially realizing that as a King he might actually have a chance at winning her heart, Dulbbe finally looked up at her as he told her "Yes, I will do as you ask."

At this announcement the crowd began to stand and clap as Dulbbe walked to Hewy and shook his hand, while Hewy, being the only other troll in the group, bowed to his new sovereign.  "Ahh, the fun begins anew," smiled the Gooblin King wondering how this adversary will 'add up' (accountant humor).

It was during the clapping and applause that the new Queen noticed a feeling that she had not felt before.  It first started as a tingling at her fingers which soon was covering her whole body like the magic that flowed through her when she was at the Goodies cottage.  Soon the others in the room also saw the glow forming around her as the room became quiet.  As all eyes were looking at her, one set of eyes was watching another who was having the same issue.  "As the prophecy stated - forever joined by the sacrifice of magic will they be," smiled Goodie4U as the glow slowly disappeared around Queen Ffion and the new Moon Dragon.

"This is where we see if the recipe is right," answered the Goodie sister, "and if all goes well, the Wish Dragon will have undergone a transformation.  This is rare and if enough magic is not released to finish the recipe, then the mixture will fail."

It was then that enough of the haze had disappeared that everyone could see what was happening inside the egg.  Both Hunter and The CAT were standing near the Wish Dragon, but the little Dragon had changed.  Hungry had grown and turned blue!  From the top of his head to the bottom of his claws - even his eyes were now a shade of blue.  As most were looking at Hungry, it was the Goodie sisters that noticed the small magical portal opening behind the Dragon.  "It will need more magic," each of the Goodie Sisters thought, but it would take more than they possessed to finish the transformation.

He had been watching Ffion through the crystal egg and already saw that his beloved daughter was approaching closer to the egg with the blue lights glowing around her.  It was the time for him to act or lose his daughter forever.  There had never been a choice, he knew what he must do.  Stepping to the edge of the crystal egg, he started pushing his magic into it!  Slowly, as as his magic swirled around in a circle, it began to expand... larger... and larger... and finally large enough to reach his hand through it.

"Daughter, a young fae sacrificed herself to give magic to the dragons, I will not have you do the same," pleaded the King to Ffion.  He reached out his hand taking hers.  As soon as that happened the blue lights flowed into Hunter's hand turning him blue.

"Hungry," Hunter told the Wish Dragon, "The Portal requires magic for magic.  This was what was required for the young fae that first gave her magic to the dragons and why I told you the tale.  When I step through the portal it will finish your transformation and begin your destiny.  If I don't, you and the magic in the Realm will perish!"

"Ah, that's where the Dragon tablet went," thought Dulbbe as he stood behind Ffion's with one hand keeping her from going to the portal.  For when the portal appeared, she had been slowly pulled towards it.  If it wasn't for Dulbbe holding her back while the King held her hand, by this point she too might have entered it with the Dragon.

"No!  You can't have it!" yelled Druzzy.  "I need it for my revenge," he screamed as he continued to cling to his crown with the Dragon tablet hidden inside as it pulled him towards the egg.  Even the Gooblin King was startled by what was happening.  "Let it go Druzzy," hollered Hir'aeth.  "It's just a thing... let it go!"  Glaring at the Gooblin King, Druzzy just smiled as he continued to clutch his crown, "Don't you wish.  I will win this round!"  It was then that three things happened all in a blink of a Dragon's eye.  The Shadows' King let go of Ffion's hand and with a wave pulled the Dragon tablet towards him.  He then stepped through the portal with the tablet following him... with a Troll King still holding on while the crystal egg shattered in a bright glittering glow like fireflies dancing in the evening.  As Druzzy was being pulled into the portal, grabbing anything to stop the pull of the King, he grabbed The CAT's tail which pulled the CAT in as well.

As Ffion watched her father, she saw him giving her one final look as he whispered "I love you" as the blinding flash occurred.

"Hungry," Hunter whispered to the little dragon, "Don't be afraid as I am here to help you."  The king continued, "First, let me tell you a story about how dragons got their terrific powers... where it all started..."  As the Shadows' King told Hungry how a Nyte Shade had given her powers to her dragon friend he also was trying to keep the Dragon calm so that he would not realize that the two of them were subtly changing and trapped inside of a large crystal.  As the tale was being told, the Troll King, Druzzy, was standing by a tree and thinking of ways to get out of the garden with the Dragon tablet he had hidden under his crown.

​The problem was he did not know which one did and a lowly bookkeeper does not accuse a King of taking something.  "I will have to make sure neither leave with it before this is over," he realized.  Making sure of how to do that was simple he quickly decided.  Walking over to the Gooblin King he whispered, "Did you notice how King Druzzy keeps looking around.  I wonder what he is up to."  This started the Gooblin King to watch the Troll King even more than normal.  "Now all I have to do is keep an eye on the Gooblin King," thought Dulbbe, "since then he will be watching the Troll King."

By the time Hunter finishes his tale to Hungry,  the Goodies had returned and were beginning their ritual with Ffion and The CAT.  It is then that the Wish Dragon realized he was trapped inside of a crystal cocoon surrounded in a blue mist.  At first startled, he stood up hitting his head.  That is when the crack appeared throwing off the Goodie's spell and causing the release of the blue ooze.   "Ouch!" Hungry yelled as he reached for the top of his head.  Trying not to smile, Hunter took one of Hungry's hands and told him to relax.  "This crystal shell will not last much longer. Look, there is already a crack in it," Hunter said as he pointed to the crack.  As they were looking at it, something else started to appear inside of the crystal with them.  Whatever it was looked like it had been stretched quite thin and shoved through the small crack.  As they both moved back as far as they could, The CAT appeared (not looking too pleased ) in front of them.  "I don't ever want to do that again!" The CAT growled when he fully materialized.

Happy that his Spite was with him, Hungry moved up to give The CAT a hug.  Too surprised to get away, The CAT let the Wish Dragon hug him (but only briefly) before telling him that was enough.  "Not in front of the King," he whispered in Hungry's ear as he was being squeezed.

Hunter only watched them, trying to hide his sad smile, before either saw it.  "If things go right, then you two will be both be changed forever," thought the King.  Also knowing that if things did not go right, all of them would be changed forever but not in a way each would have liked...

Outside of the crystal and in the garden, Ffion, the Goodie sisters, and Hewy have joined hands as Hewy begins to sing.  Soon, the others joined the circle and as the music became louder, everyone was holding hands and singing as they circled the large blue glowing crystal.  Even Druzzy had to join in as Hir'aeth had grabbed his hand so he could not disappear.  

Inside the crystal, The CAT, having the keenest of hearing, all of a sudden perked up his ears.  "Do you hear that?" he asked the others.  Before they could answer he continued, "Hewy is singing."  In a minute all three of them could hear the singing since it no longer was just Hewy.  "It sounds like a whole bunch of Twitter Birds," thought the Dragon and he soon was tapping his foot to the beat of the music.  Things were going along smoothly until Hungry accidently tapped too hard - on The CAT's tail!  Leaping into the air, The CAT startled Hungry who stood up completely and again hit his head on the crystal ceiling in their cocoon causing the crack to start getting even bigger and spreading.

​"We need to hurry!" replied Goodieg2shues.  "Go grab him!"

"Him???  Him who," thought The CAT who had been prowling around the edge of the garden, wondering about the magical mayhem that was going on here.  He had felt the energy shift and no longer could feel Hungry, the little Wish Dragon.  Being the Spite of a Wish Dragon was still a new experience for The CAT.  It took another Spite, Sprigg'n Mac-talla, to teach him that as a Spite he was supposed to watch out and help (well maybe not quite as much) keep his Dragon out of trouble.  Again, wondering why he could not feel Hungry, is when Goodiegood ran up to him and grabbed his paw.

Goodiegood looked into The CAT's eyes and said, "Hungry needs you now like never before.  You are that missing ingredient.  We can't save him without you."

As The CAT was deciding, Goodie4U is shouting over all the chatter that the rest of the crowd is making in their confusion of trying to understand what is happening.  Only one is not saying anything, Druzzy, the Troll King.  He has been standing in the background trying to figure a way out of the garden without anyone noticing him leave since he was still hiding the forgotten Dragon tablet under his crown.  "I have got to get this tablet away from here," he was telling himself.  "The power it will give me!"

Goodiegood directed Ffion, her sisters, and The CAT to stand around the Crystal Egg.  As they joined hands, the egg started to crack a little more.  "Hurry Hewy with the music, it will calm the beast inside," Goodiegood yelled back to the Troll who was still trying to figure out what he would sing.

"The blue ooze is chaos," yelled Goodiegood as her ears were still ringing from the spell exploding, "and if it spreads it will contaminate the others and turn them into crazy mad creatures!"  

"There must be some way to fix this!" Goodie2shues yelled back.  "Where is Goodie4U?"  she continued.

As Goodiegood was thinking about the missing one, Goodie4u was thinking about the ritual they needed to do.  "Ffion has reached the age where she should be able to survive the ritual.  I just hope that the Crystal Egg will wait until everything is mixed and ready." 

The third sister, Goodie2shues, was busy keeping an eye on Princess Ffion.  The shock of her father's, the Shadows' King, disappearance was still evident.  Ffion did not do much more than watch the countryside as the Nytemares sped her to where the sisters were taking her to.  "I hope she can take what is soon to be dished out to her," thought Goodie2shues as the Nytemares stopped in front of the Goodie cottage.

Quickly Goodiegood and Goodie4u opened the small wooden door to their cottage and disappeared inside as Goodie2shues helped the princess from the Nytemare's back and ushered her to go inside while she talked to the Nytemares.  "Please wait for us as we won't be long," Goodie2shues told the Nytemares.  She knew they agreed when they all bobbed their heads and knelt on the ground.

As Ffion sat, she noticed Goodiegood now standing in the kitchen, mumbling to herself as she held a small bouquet of moonflowers.  As she watched, the flowers suddenly glowed brightly with a blinding flash causing Ffion to jump up from her chair seeing bright spots before her eyes.  As she blinked several times to clear her vision, she saw Goodie2shues entering in the doorway where the wreath was hung.  Suddenly it looked like the Goodie sister appeared to turn into a green snake and was now sliding in and out of the circle of branches.  Startled, Ffion rubbed her eyes and when she looked back up, saw that Goodie2shues was back to normal and no longer a snake.     

As Goodie2shues approaches, Ffion shrinks back and squeaks "What did you just have me drink?  You were a snake!"  Goodie4u, realizing that Ffion being a Nyte Shade, must have seen the magic of her sister combining her energy with that of the Circle.  Goodie4u answered"  We only gave you a healing brew, so you don't need to worry about it, but Goodie2shues needed to strengthen the energy of the Circle of Snakes for the ritual."

Before Ffion could say anything, Goodiegood continued.  "​The Circle of Snakes is actually a circle full of love by those that have gone before us to create this foundation of protection.  We are simply adding to it so we can help you now.  That is why you are here."

"Ffion, you are a Nyte Shade," said Goodie4u interrupting Goodiegood.  With a brief look of irritation Goodiegood continued, "What you do not totally understand yet is what it means to be a true Nyte Shade.  You are now part of that history and ritual which seems to be needed again.  For a Nyte Shade once gave it's power to a dragon which made the Dragons the powerful creatures they are today.  Our magic is lesser than the Nyte Shade since we are part witch and part fae.  We can cast spells and help by way of ritual, much like the wizard, Devin, but we can only assist."

Ffion sat back down in the chair stunned.  She had never even thought to ask her father more about what it meant to be a Nyte Shade when he had told her.  Before she could start asking more questions from the Goodie sisters, Goodie2shues spoke.  "Time is of the essence and we must hurry before this recipe of disaster is completed and we are truly cooked! ​

Deciding she had little choice, Ffion slowly nods her head and replies.  "The others back at the castle must have trusted you to let you take me away.  Plus the Nytemares would not have taken us here if they didn't trust you too," she told the sisters.  "Yes, tell me what I must do."   Goodiegood approached Ffion and took one of her hands while the other sisters joined their hands to complete the circle.  Together the sisters looked at the candle in the middle of their circle as it suddenly flared to life while calling on the powers they needed to complete the ritual.  The room began to shimmer and Ffion took on a blue glow.   With that the Goodie sisters  knew that they had completed the ritual.  They had provided all the protection they could even though Ffion looked more haggard and distracted than she did when her father had disappeared.  The Goodies had opened a portal through Ffion and now they needed to finish the transformation by heading back to the crystal egg.  Goodiegood lead the others back to where the Nytemares were waiting.  As they left the cottage, Goodie2shues whispered to Goodie4u, "Do you think the portal is draining her?  We need to hurry if we are to help her as well as what is in the egg."  In the meantime, Goodiegood helped the princess to slide on the back of her Nytemare and soon the four were rushing to the Shadows' King's castle and the crystal in the garden.

Off to one side was Hewy, the Troll,  who was busy giving the Gooblin King, Hir'aeth, the evil eye as the Gooblin King wondered to himself where had Druzzy, the Troll King, snuck off too?  Efem, the Tree Mother, was huddled with Dewin by a small bench and waving her hands in the air trying to make a point as she tried to get his complete attention. While Dewin was trying also to see where the Troll King had wondered off as well as try to keep one ear open to listen to Efem.  ​

Things were certainly tense and confusing.  It was then, as Goodiegood was looking around at everyone, that she noticed the large crystal-like egg in the the middle of the garden.  "I doubt that has been here very long," she asked without expecting much of an answer.  She realized what it was as she looked closer seeing something blue swirling around inside of it.  

Turning to her sisters she said, "It looks like what we feared has happened.  The Prophesy has begun with the Last Wish Dragon being lost.  Now we must find out who sacrificed their magic for this to have happened."  As the three sisters started looking around the garden to see who might be missing from the vision they had earlier, Goodie2shues finally hollered to the crowd, "Everyone! We don't have much time so listen up!  We need to talk to Ffion or the Shadows' King.  Does anyone know where they are?" 

When the Dowager finished, Goodie4u mumbled loud enough for only her sisters to hear, "Now we know who sacrificed their power, as the King and Ffion being Nyte Shades are the only two beings strong enough to give up their power and not be swayed by the Darkness or Greed."  Realizing that speed was now needed, Goodie2shues spoke again to the crowd.  "We need to speak to Ffion immediately!  The Realm depends on it!"

As her sisters disappeared, Goodiegood quietly mumbled to herself, "The best thing we can do now is get Ffion back to our place so we can whip up our 'Surrogare' recipe before this egg fully hatches.  The Ntyemares are the best choice to fly us home in time."

As the other two sisters flew off to do her bidding, Goodiegood thought about trying to explain to Awena and the Dowager what was happening, but there just wasn't enough time.  All she could do was shout out "Trust ME!" as she ran to follow her sisters.
