Ash moved closer, drawing wary looks from the gnome and the two guards.
"By herself?" he said quietly, masking the anger beneath. "Oberon isnt offering any help? Seems a lot to ask, if his own armies cant get through."
"King Oberon believes that a single person could move unseen through the Iron Realm," the gnome replied, "and thus have a better chance of finding the Iron King. Both Oberon and Mab agree that the Summer princess is the best choice--she has been there before, and she has already taken down one Iron King."

She frowns, staring down at the gnome in silence as she thinks. "I can do it..."

Puck watched Claire for a moment before speaking up. "Shell need some time to think about it," he said, stepping forward with a disarming grin. "I assume Oberon doesnt need an answer right this very second, does he?"
The gnome regarded him gravely, yet spoke to Claire. "He did say time was of the essence, your highness. The longer you remain here, the farther the corruption spreads, and the stronger the Iron King becomes. Lord Oberon cannot wait. We will return at dawn for your answer." He bowed, and the knights stepped back, preparing to leave. "This is a onetime offer, highness," the gnome cautioned. "If you choose not to accept Oberons offer and return to the Nevernever with us, none of you will ever see it again." He rolled up the paper with a flourish, and disappeared into the woods with the guards.

She turned to glare up at Puck. "Whyd you say that?"

"You cant go back there yet. You still have to learn to use glamour. Besides, you had help last time."

She groans, glaring at the sky. "Well now you two cant go home because of me."

Puck and Ash started back towards the cabin. "She may have defeated the first Iron King, but that was with the Witchwood arrow. We dont have anything like that now."
"True," came Grimalkins voice beside them. "But that was specifically for Machina. You do not know if that is needed for the false king."

She frowns, "Well if a specific weapon is needed to defeat the iron king, what do you think that might be?" She asks, looking down at Grim.
