Author's Note: I don't own these characters. Well, not most of them. I made a few filler characters and, well, Triana, but beyond that, they're not mine. Though I wish they were…. They're really so much cooler than anything I can come up with. *sigh* Thanks for reading.
"Wolf, you must help us. The nine kingdoms will all be destroyed if some sort of order isn't restored soon." Atrus the fairy looked worried and desperate.
"Yeah, I'll help. What's going on?" The fairy sighed.
"We don't know. The trolls are building up their army to an enormous size, and Wendell is acting rather strange. He's acting like a child. The Fourth Kingdom is being ruled by a seven year old!" Wolf scratched his brow.
"Huff Puff! Do the trolls know this?" The fairy shook his head.
"Only the council knows, and there aren't any trolls in the council."
"So what exactly do you want me to do?" Wolf asked. "How can I stop something if I don't even know what it is?"
"We have a few leads that we want you to follow up on and above all, you have to keep this a secret. Not even Virginia should know." Wolf whined softly.
"But she won't tell anyone, and my self-help books tell me that I shouldn't keep secrets from my true love…" The fairy shook his head.
"I didn't want to tell you this, but we have reason to believe that their next target is Virginia. Torture can make even the trustworthiest person crack. Now, please, can you help us?" Wolf nodded.
"I don't like this, but I'm in. What's the first clue?" Atrus breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh, thank you. First we want you to go to Wendell's castle and talk to Tony. He might be able to tell you who was at the castle the day Wendell went "kiddish". The soon to be queen is on a diplomatic trip and wasn't around for the change. She won't be any help, so you don't have to worry about tracking her down. Then go talk to Burly, General of the troll army. Report back as soon as possible." Wolf bowed.
"Of course. Goodbye Atrus." The fairy bowed back.
"Goodbye Wolf, and good luck." Wolf turned and quickly left the Grand Hall. Atrus wasn't a king, but he was a wise fairy and an elder in the council of the nine kingdoms. As Wolf left the castle, he shuddered. He didn't particularly like fairies, and this place was packed with them. He now remembered why he didn't visit Atrus more often. Most fairies were too mischievous for Wolf's comfort. When he was a kid, the fairies used to make fun of him and pull his tail while he wasn't looking. He had grown to dislike fairies then and had never gotten over it. He gritted his teeth and went through town as quickly as possible, holding back the urge to bite each of their heads off and cook them up in a shepherdess pie served over green beans and rice.
