As of the latest update, Jared999d has successfully rescued Princess Lirien and defeated the five goblins. The kingdom of Silvermist is forever grateful, and the legend of Jared999d continues to grow. The hero has returned to the kingdom, where he was greeted as a champion. The king and queen have awarded him the Order of the Golden Sword, the highest honor in the land.

The royal council bristled. Goblins in the court meant trouble: taxes muddled, land claims argued, old songs broken. Yet Maelin, who had started holding the mirror some nights while Jared read passages from books that smelled of iron and future, saw in it more than threat. The mirror showed small, hard lives—goblin children trading mechanical beetles for sunlight, old goblins sewing maps into their coats so they could find the world again. When Maelin looked into it she felt the stories press like hands against her ribs: obligations, histories, the small arithmetic of living together.
