So we were wrong. So wrong. Well actually we were partly right, there is a way to speak things out of being in Fillory, but unfortunately that power only rests with Umber, and according to Ember (who is hiding out like a total bitch, so disappointing) only Ember can speak things into being, so only Umber can speak them back out. A whole checks and balances system that seems really awesome in principle, really shitty when you're having your lungs ripped out through your rib cage. Don't worry though, that wasn't what happened to me. That was what happened to Penny. Apparently The Beast isn't a fan of smartassery and back talk. Who knew. Everyone else is dead. Actually even I am right now, He just wants me to send you a message. Yes you, reading this story. Because it doesn't matter. He can't be stopped. We won't be stopped. And now we knows that you know. We don't know if you've noticed, but we don't like being seen. So understand, Earth Child, that you are next. You will not sit on the thrones of Fillory. You will never defeat me. With every kill I get stronger, and I get hungrier, and you, you smell like fear.
My favorite.
