Back home, [[Pankraz]] stays in his study, leaving his son to his own devices. Within the town, several villagers complain of a prankster causing mischief. The Hero spots the culprit in the pub: an ethereal fairy named [[Honey]], who was trying to get attention due to a problem in her homeland. Since The Hero is the only villager that can see her, she takes him and his sabercat to [[Faerie Lea]]. The leader, Treacle, explains that someone stole the [[Herald of Spring]], which prevents her from ushering in the new season, leaving the world at risk of perpetual winter. After tracking down the thief, [[Dwight]], it turns out he was coerced by the [[Winter Queen]] into stealing the herald. After defeating the both of them, [[Dwight]] accepts defeat and returns to his father, while The Hero returns the herald to Treacle. Grateful for his help, she promises to return the favor some day when he's older, and The Hero returns home. | Back home, [[Pankraz]] stays in his study, leaving his son to his own devices.
