She giggled at the politician joke, but her face faded into something a bit more serious and attentive as Jack continued.
"Yeah, that's it exactly. There's this force called Corrosion, and it twists or destroys everything it touches. Because we come from worlds it hasn't touched, our imagination is still strong enough to fight it and beat it back... and depending on what sort of person you are, your imagination has different effects. Merlin calls them classes: Princesses, Heroes, Warriors, Fairies, Toys, Machines, and Monsters. I'm a Princess, which means even though I didn't belong to a royal family at home, there's something about me that lets me heal the Corrosion. And I can talk to bugs, too."
She wore a unique choker around her neck, and reached up to brush it with her fingertips. Not a moment later, a bright bottle-blue dragonfly buzzed out through the twilight and landed on Jack's lapel.
