Editing Alpeana (section)

=== Stolen Away ===
While the Kennet Trio are at the Fae Cave, Verona glamoured into a weasel runs into the cave, before running out in shock after accidentally waking Alpeana. Alpeana emerges, and has a chat with the girls, where she explains her job and purpose to them as part of their investigation.

Alpeana is later called on for an interview by Verona, who is attempting to interview the remaining Others. Alpeana takes the girls on her nightly trip, and begins to give Verona's Dad a nightmare, though Verona stops her. Alpeana then continues onto her next target, but is stopped when she finds practitioner interference, and calls upon Miss. <ref name=":8" />

After having a discussion with Miss and the Kennet Trio, Alpeana heads off into the Spirit World with them to attempt to track down the invader. As they head through the Spirit World, they find a group of omens outside the town dance studio, but the group leave it eventually. They head into the Ruins, Alpeana as the group's navigator, where more damaged Echoes are discovered, which greatly irritates Alpeana, as she needs them to make her nightmares. Alpeana then mentions becoming the familiar of one of the girls if the disturbances continue<ref>“If this keeps doon this sorry path, I’ll be crossin’ these fingers o’ mine tha ye girls decide you want me for a Familiar.  Would sure be nice ta get a wee vacation when yer work has gone unwiped erse over fanny.”

Eventually, the group returns, with Alpeana guiding them back into the real world. <ref>The mare jerked them to another place, much as she’d delivered them to the hall outside dad’s room, then to the ‘auld codger’ Clay’s place.  From torrential rain into light rain.  From cold into dull, humid heat.
