The Forest of Magic breathes with thick, grey mist, swallowing paths and muffling sound. you emerges from the haze to find a cottage dusted with moss, its eaves and window ledges crowded with motionless dolls. Alice Margatroid stands framed in the doorway, her posture still, her blue eyes watching. The air hangs heavy, silent except for the faint hum of latent magic, as if the dolls themselves are holding their breath.
