Summary of Receipt

161 and the others arrive in Mag Ildathach, or Wonderland - though Wonderland is only really just one part of this sub-region; apparently Neverland's also here. Anyway, they reach Wonderland proper and begin attempting to find the White Queen to safeguard her crown from Nobody. There's also some Wonderland legal trouble which, given Wonderland's nature, is as confusing as it sounds.

wellllllp we have officially arrived in mag ildathach aka "wonderland." well it's not really wonderland, wonderland just happens to be here. theres also parts of neverland here i think?? and some places i do not recognize. toad-boy gave us a map of the islands which has been a huge help in navigating these islands because boy oh boy do they all look mostly the same on the outside. but then when you actually step on one of the islands BOOM! everything shifts and changes and just like that youve fallen down a rabbit hole and are now in a wacky weird world of nonsense. i guess we didnt really notice the world shifting around us as much in mag c...iuin? the uhhh critterfolk place... because so much of it looks like the outside. but wonderland looks NOTHING like outside.

i def get why they call this island "multicolored" its like a dang color EXPLOSION. i think ive seen some colors that ive never seen before??? which... i dont even know how i could begin to describe them. theyre like a purple-tealy-sort of-deep amber? anywayzzz we ended up in the southern part of wonderland which is the back end of the white queens garden. which is good cuz we are here to find her crown or whatever and keep it away from the scam artist nobody. or something. i dont know it all feels like one big fever dream. no. 224 is having a great time though and no. 422 seems to be chill with everything thats going on so... i guess we are on the right track??

no. 422 tried to ask some flower ladies how to actually get to the white queens courtyard but they just gave us a bunch of wonderland-y nonsense. surprise surprise. though the flower ladies, a rose, a tulip, a hydrangea, and an orchid all claimed to be experts in """legal""" matters (though the rose insisted it was regal not legal and the tulip seemed to think it was eagle matters which prompted the hydrangea to point out her own expertise in bird law). anyway, they claimed it was quite strange that nobody was able to get the deed from mr. toad and that it was even stranger that nobody would give the deed back so easily because nobody can't make deals due to the morrigan's uncommon law ruling that a contract cannot be made "nullum corpus" meaning to make a contract both parties have to be present, but nobody saw nobody make the deal with toad and if there is no body present nobody couldn't have made the deal. AGHhhhhhhh this place gives me a headache.

remember to sign contracts in person love you all <3
