"Always remember, no matter how much a fae may seem like they experience emotions, no matter how human like a fae may behave...a fae can never be a human."

The Keybearer. A young maiden from another world foretold by ancient prophesy, destined to collect the seven keys and save the world. 

Surely that's the kind of story that finds some plucky high schooler dreaming of adventure and whisks them off to find their true love, right? Overworked salary women like Emily have long passed the point where such fantasies can come true, and even if they did, it's not like she'd know the first thing about what to do.

...So of course, nobody even bothered to ask her before dropping her into an entirely new world full of magic and danger. Like the three hungry orcs eyeing her as soon as she wakes up.

"What do you mean I can sense the keys if I use magic?!  What magic?!"

If Emily could, she'd have immediately issued a rejection letter, but unfortunately, the only way back is to finish her quest somehow.

But it's not all danger and confusion. The knight who rushed into battle to save her is charming and kind and gorgeous, and the beautiful and lonely prince has a soft and kind smile only for her. If everyone she meets along the way is like them...

Well. It can't be that bad, right?

"...--I'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED BY A PAINTING?!"

My Knight Rescuer is a Jerk! So Why should I ignore the Prince?

Emily quickly lost track of time, constantly searching through endless books and papers scattered around the room.

Each book contained useful information about the different kinds of spells, runes, and magic items that could be crafted, but none contained anything specifically related to the fae tower she was trapped inside.

Or, well, if they did, it was so obscure she had no hope of recognizing it.

She...found that quite frustrating, honestly. But there was nothing that could be done. She just had to hope to either find something she understood, or find a way to understand what she couldn't.

Unless Adrien found a way before she could.

Emily thoroughly enjoyed spending time conversing with Merwyn while exploring the various areas within the fae tower and listening to him reminisce fondly about his past life before becoming trapped.
