Summary:
<blockquote>All Lady Pole and Arabella Strange want to do is forget their time in Faerie, but a message comes from a certain king... and he has gifts to offer.</blockquote>
➤ post-canon Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell fic, about Arabella and Emma and a trip to Faerie
➤ much of it told through letters and journal entries
➤ I love the developing relationship between the two women, how important they are to each other, and how Arabella's relationship with the missing Jonathan is treated at the same time
➤ and the sense of the numinous (and of the things that cannot be known) fits just right into the way it's handled in canon!
➤ what a good fic. one I will definitely want to return to to reread.
