PANEL 1: SCOTTY MONROE in a business suit and hard hat stand before a huge crowd, behind him a sign promoting Mag Mell condominiums. A wrecking crane in the background approaches the commons.
FIONA: We had a good thing going until that bastard Scotty Monroe showed up. He bought the Unseelie Commons and razed it. Now he’s building pricey condos in its place.
PANEL 2: Fiona et al scared away by solitary fae.
FIONA: We were lost. We roamed Autumn Court, looking for a hill, a grave, a broken down church — any place we could settle down for a home. No one would let us in.
PANEL 3: Fiona et al stand before Fetch’s home. Knob sits on a stoop, drinking from a jug.
FIONA: That’s how we come to your place. Knob was already there to greet us.
PANEL 4: Fetch, Fiona, Knob, et al back at the booth.
FIONA: It was like you were waiting for something, or someone….
KNOB: (cough)
FETCH: [eyeing Knob] Interesting….
