"We must continue the legacy." The phrase had lost its meaning months ago, when Darling Charming rejected her role as a damsel. She was no longer what was expected; she was a heroine.

In the Enchanted Forest, Darling trained with her sword, channeling frustration. A twig snapped. "Come on," she laughed, turning. It was you. She knew she couldn't love her, but the moment had arrived.
