The Faerie Kingdom has mostly remained the same after White Lily had corrupted. Wilted Lily .. I guess that's what she's called now... Flowers weep when she walks by them .. shriveling up and dying, petals slowly falling one by one. Trees rot, leaves blowing away in the wind. The faerie Queen was merciful most of the time, as long as you did as you were told. However ...when it came to..him, Everything has to be perfect.

....Just... Perfect...

The Faerie's were in the middle of braiding Wilted Lily's hair when he arrived ... He was all smiles, never a trace of melancholy when he was around her... Tainted Vanilla always had a calm sense when around her.

Mercurial Knight had stepped into the room, bringing in a tea set for the two.

"Your tea has arrived, your majesty...just as you ordered."

Wilted Lily looked over at Mercurial Knight. Her ruby read eyes glaring..though not in a threatening way.

She just gave a acknowledging nod. Her voice soft, as best as she could make it. "Thank you mercurial Knight Cookie... You may return to your post."

Wilted Lily looked down at her lap. She always wishes she could see those  eyes of his...the real eyes that always gleamed whenever she appeared in the room... But now.. pure vanilla ....

"So... You must've come here for something... haven't you? So what is it? To talk, to make a deal? What is it, Pure Vanilla Cookie..."

Pure Vanilla Cookie tensed up.

"My dear Lily ...you know I don't respond anymore to that name.. ever since-"

"Ever since you saw the impurities of the cookie world... I know..."

"....the garden... Does it look the same? I always wondered, seeing as I can't see the world for myself."

Wilted Lily looked around.. the garden was a mix of flora and fauna, while the other side was in shambles, which was her own doing. But she wouldn't tell Tainted Vanilla that of course. After all this garden was their sanctuary now.

"Y'know I've been thinking, and I've been wondering. With everyone fleeing from earthbread because of us and the others as the new... Beasts Cookies. Are we making the right choice? We're no better than Shadow Milk and the others, corrupting and causing pain to other cookies."

Tainted Vanilla laughed

"We're not causing any pain at all, Wilted Lily! Look at this place, it's thriving, full of life, the Faerie's. If anything, it's a miracle that you're as merciful as you say you are most times!"

"Bitter Cacao, or Lunar Cheese would have turned you to dust, or turn you to hold if others spoke against them."

"but you ...you give them another chance... If anything, it's a quality I find good to have. To know I have a cookie as reliable as you! That's why ... I'm saving you for last, that when every Cookie is purified and saw the errors of their ways, I'll do you last, then myself.. we'll both perish! Doesn't that sound amazing!?"

*Ahem*

Wilted Lily looked away. If she were to be purified, her kingdom would fall. But ... She'd be with her friends, those who she cares for most.

Tainted Vanilla sighed... He went off the rails again

"I see ... So I went overboard again..."

His wings drooped downwards, which happens whenever he says something out of place, or when he's saddened.

.....

.....

"I'm often called a monster... Do you see me as a monster Lily...? And be honest with me. Are my actions enough to classify me as a monster, when all I try to do is purify those who are deemed as sinners..?"

Wilted Lily looked down. She couldn't...no ..this time she would answer.

"Tainted Vanilla..... You're... Killing cookies. You're in a delusion to which you feel you're saving others, but you're not! You're hurting cookies around you, you're not a Savior!"

"....I see .... I can see where I'm not wanted when it comes to us."

*He thought for a moment, then laughed, a wicked ,empty laugh.*

"You know I thought that maybe this could be a way to bond once again like in the past, but I see that there is no use in doing so it seems."

"..... I condemned cookies into dying with a mere open of my eyes Lily..."

"If you say I'm a monster ... Then I'll be a monster!"

*Pure vanilla walked away from the garden and into the woods. He flew up into the air*

"Faerie's.... Heed my calling.... I, Tainted Vanilla Cookie, the beast of Condemnation, will help you open your eyes. I condemn you to leave Faerie Wood ... Tear the tree apart, the castle, everything without reach and sight... And for the queen of the Faerie's... Let this be a warning, that you cannot escape condemnation. As you're punishment will approach, when we have reached true enlightenment."

*Wilted Lily sweated a little, beads of icing dropping down her forehead, using her magic in order to holding everything together*

"TAINTED VANILLA COOKIE!! I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS, I'LL GET YOU!"
