Magearna stands in the chamber at the center of the clockwork castle. She can feel her daughter's presence gone from the castle as soon as she leaves with Konnie. She should've known it would happen. After all what do villains do if not steal away princesses?
Very well. She would have to pursue them.

Outside the tower, it's very clear something's about to happen as the tower begins to shift, collapsing down, a few cogs and gears fall off, embedding themselves in the dirt on impact.
In the front of the tower an opening emerges. A dark tunnel. Straight through to the heart of the clockwork structure. Eventually the structure finishes shifting, and footsteps can be heard.
Not the heavy footsteps one would imagine coming from a large haunted metal doll, but light, like a person.
Emerging from the entrance into the woods surrounding is a woman. She's a little above average height, wearing a long fancy-looking black dress. She has dark hair and purple eyes, and were you an eleven year old child with only a painting to remember your mother by- you might mistake her for Konnie.
She scans the horizon, face solemn, hands clasped neatly in front of herself.
