Dream

"You shouldn't look after her, you know what she'll turn into! She's a monster!"

She shouts at her sister. She only visits her in the most important situations, and the adoption of that little creature with horns seems to be an attractive topic. She can't accept this, she's given up four lessons just to go and see her.

" This is my business, and it's not yours! I don't owe you any satisfaction, Helena."

The kind fairy shouts back. She can't accept someone talking this way about such an innocent child.

"You also saw what I saw!"

"Don't play the future card on me."

"What are you crying about? I didn't know you had a baby."

In the middle of their discussion, a loud cry broke out.

"Baby? What baby? You're crazy."

Her focus moved from her sister to the child's cry. She went over to the cradle where the cry was coming from, but she didn't see a baby; on the contrary, when she got closer, she saw a large object that she hadn't seen for a long time.

"The Book of Fairy Tales?"

She knows the cover of the book, but the pages are still white, as if time hadn't reached them. The book opens by itself, and when she touch it...

Dream off

"The book has been written again."

She jumped out of bed when she realized that this wasn't just a dream. She got up knowing that she had to go to Nanny.

Enchanted florest

The woman got up from her bed and thanked the heavens that she still lived in the old house.

"Come in."

She said this to her younger sister before she even had a chance to knock.

"Did you dream too?"

The two women are in their loose-fitting dresses with cold clothes on top, and they both look at each other in fright.

United States of Auradon

In the Beast's castle, the queen once again finds herself waking up in front of the toilet, and this is already taking away her sleep, and Mal hates not sleeping. Since arriving from Paris, when the nausea started, her health seems to have worsened, and she certainly won't be going to the hospital because that's not her custom, especially with everything going on in Auradon. She just wants to sleep before being woken up for her duties.

There is a group of Auradonians who have been angry with Ben and his reign since the apocalypse. He wouldn't mind if this group didn't grow so quickly. There are people who don't agree with Ben and everything he did and was doing. It's not a kind of new council; it doesn't come to that. It's just people angry that their king disappeared during the worst disaster the country has ever experienced.

Last week, Mal and Ben met with them. Ben won't abandon the throne for a few disgruntled people, but he will try dialog, as he always has. What's causing the mess that's making everyone nervous? Magic, everyone's old friend and enemy, the problem and the solution. This group asks Ben to ban magic from Auradon, and he would ignore this request, but not a few people have a hatred for magic.
