Summary
In June 2019 (Mainland time), the daughter of the Mad Hatter hosted a tea party with representatives from Neverland and Wonderland. She felt that there was something wrong with Time. Most people thought she was crazy, but many attended anyway. The whole Tea Party was under a Frabjous enchantment

Hatter gave an impassioned speech about how time was incorrect, and something needed to be done. She demanded answers from her guests, who were confused. In a flash of darkness, the goddess Lady Time herself appeared flanked by Nightmares. She felt offended by not being invited, and thought this was the perfect opportunity to offer a game she'd been concocting. Hatter wasn't mad after all, but she'd vanished. Nobody knew where she'd gone.

Lady Time had been Time for a while now, and was bored. She was ready to pass on her title to somebody else, and so she stopped time everywhere outside of the Tea Party. The resulting barrier magic created Nightmares of increasing intensity. They terrorised the guests who were unable to leave.

The next morning, Lady Vengeance showed up to watch the fun. In secret, she conspired against Lady Time and offered the guests a way to kill her once and for all, if only they could solve her riddles.

The guests solved her riddle and named her as Lucy. Reluctantly, she gave them the Vorpal Sword. Though many people fought over it, eventually it was wielded by the fairy Tráthnona Una who struck both gods down and passed their powers onto others. Tráthnona Una then returned it to the new Lady Vengeance.
 * Lady Vengeance (aka Lucy) was succeeded by the fairy Corva.
 * Lady Time was succeeded by the Wonderlandian rabbit Molly Bun.

Time's Puzzle
She requested three things to be brought to her: Evidence: Hatter's brain
 * 1) Evidence of the Hatter’s real reason for hosting the tea party
 * 2) A wish upon a star
 * 3) An answer to her puzzle written in ink only the stars can see.

Wish: A player character called Ursa was a cat that fell from the stars. She was killed by a Nightmare, but the guests of the tea party cast a ritual and sent her trapped spirit back home.

Puzzle: Four poems were given. These led to some clues, including a tapestry with writing on it in star ink. Eventually the found out that Lady Vengeance's name was Lucy.

Using her name, they commanded Lady Vengeance to give them the Vorpal Sword.

Poem 1
Oh, my beloved second-mouse You dansome, fluffy rogue Your ticking tickles my nose Oh, my beloved second-mouse Who lives in the frop of a petal Into the whisper of the Burblebrook River down through the second between twilight and night To the end of your sad, knotted tale.

Poem 2
Kitten, kitten, burning bright, In the forests of the night; What immortal hand or eye, Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies. Burnt the fire of thine eyes? On what wings dare they aspire? What the hand, dare seize the fire?

And what shoulder, & what art, Could twist the sinews of thy heart? And when thy heart began to beat, What dread hand? & what dread feet?

What the hammer? what the chain, In what furnace was thy brain? What the anvil? what dread grasp, Dare its deadly terrors clasp!

When the stars threw down their spears And water'd Peter with their tears: Did they smile their work to see? Did she who made the stars make thee?

Kitten kitten burning bright, In the forests of the night: What immortal hand or eye, Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

Kitten kitten burning bright, In the beating of

Poem 3
Into this wilde Abyss, The Womb of nature and perhaps her Grave, Of neither Sea, nor Shore, nor Air, nor Fire, But all these in their pregnant causes mixt Confus'dly, and which thus must ever fight, Unless th' Golden Webweaver them ordain His dark materials to create more Worlds, Into this wilde Abyss the warie fiend Stood on the brink of Hell and look'd a while, Pondering his Voyage; for no narrow frith He had to cross, not one but two.

Poem 4
Miss Lucy was a naughty girl With fur as black as night She tied her to the table and gave her quite a fright

She pulled out all her favourite toys And laid them out to see Her victim knew her fate by now and wished that she could flee

She wept she cried she begged to stop Miss Lucy only smiled Her panicked cries and fearful eyes only drove Miss Lucy wild

She went town and laughed aloud A week it took to stop Her fur stained red, she shook her head and went and grabbed a mop.

Well, she never liked her sisters
