“Presenting Princess Elsa of Arendelle!”
Elsa stepped out of the shadow of her parents and into the sun. Her people were waiting, welcoming her presence in the village square with thunderous applause.

The castle looked different from the outside.
It was the first thing the princess thought of when she saw it again. It felt like years since she had laid eyes on it, but in reality, it had only been a few weeks.

In the foothills of the Ibrian Mountains…
Cahe Vehswo was in the field repairing a wooden fence. It was less to keep the wolves out than to keep the stupid sheep in, where the only slightly smarter child-shepherds could watch them.

They had only one cannon left.
Mulan held her breath, digging her heels deep into the snow as she surveyed the valley ahead for any sign of the Huns.
Nothing.

Once upon a time in a faraway land, a young prince lived in a shining castle. Although he had everything his heart desired, the Prince was spoiled, selfish, and unkind.

A dragon was dead.
A giant black and purple fire-breathing dragon from the very pits of hell itself was dead somewhere outside the castle. Thorns were falling from the battlements like rain, making curiously pleasant wooden sounds on the grounds of the bailey.

A high white moon cast its light on the city below as brightly as the sun was said to shine in northern countries. White mud-brick buildings gleamed like pebbles from a faraway beach.

She‘d had a doll once, with a painted-on smile, and pale hair and eyes like her own. For a long while, it had been her constant companion—a friend for tea when Alice was traveling with her papa, a confidant when she overheard her parents whispering secrets, someone who had to listen to her when no one else would.

As they ascended, retreating farther from the winding trails that marked the way to nearby villages, the world opened to him in its purest form: silent, ancient, mysterious.

Not many buildings can rival the bright lights and vibrant colors of the Strip at night, but the big top of Treatro della Notte certainly holds its own.
The black-and-gold-striped building is blanketed by an explosion of twinkling white lights.

The bones are buried deep, white against the velvet of dark water. I shudder in the cold press of the sea as I swim beneath giant rib cages. The chill has burrowed into my core, where it nestles in the pit of my stomach, settling next to the promise I made to Olokun.

I circle the ship with the sharks, slipping between dark waves. The water is layered with cold currents, sea creatures, and a ship that slices through it with cargo holds full of stolen people. I swim underneath the swells, away from the gaze of men and just out of the reach of jaws.
Waiting.

“You‘re smiling like your world domination is nigh,” Maddy said.
“Always,” I said as I fell into step beside her on the bustling sidewalk.
This time my world-domination smile was I‘d spotted our Scoop colleagues James and Devin waiting in front of the fancy old movie theater up ahead, as prompt as I‘d known James would be.

“You lost?” the man asked. He had a zillion wrinkles, and he was wearing a hat that would suit an old-fashioned detective. He perched on a stool beside the stairs out of the subway station, ready to launch into a guitar solo.

“Remember the plan,” I muttered.
I sped up as the school came into view, a telltale yellow bus lumbering away from the curb. The soles of my knee-high boots clicked against the concrete sidewalk.

Arsinoe, fugitive queen of Fennbirn Island, sits stone faced before the desk, surrounded by crumpled balls of parchment. She has not slept but a few hours, and the light spilling in through the cut-stone window hurts her eyes; it shows the dark hollows beneath them and the gray hue of her face.

The labor, when it began, was hard and full of blood. Nothing less was to be expected from a war queen, especially one so battle-hardened as Queen Philomene.

The day of the birth of the queens who would come to be known as Mirabella, Arsinoe, and Katharine was still, unremarkable and without omens. There was no great wind to howl the arrival of an elemental queen.
