Loyal Seladon

Era of unification chapter - 1

Remember when I made a dark crystal AU where the gelfling won the garthim war? No!? Me neither, until now that is. I've already made a couple chapters, but I never posted any here so here it is. I think ya'll already know what this chapters about considering the name... let's go.

After the battle of Stone in the woods as everyone was celebrating their victory Seladon slipped away from the crowd of mixed gelfling, she was glad that they won but there was this terrible turning in her stomach… “What if they find out what I said?” Her eye dilates, she feels all the booze she drank coming back up, and her head starts aching. “No. no. no. no. no. no. no. no. no. no. no. no.” Her mother and her younger sister are both dead at the hands of the general, she only has brea left, she's all maudra now, and she has no one to depend on. If they all find out that she offered her whole race up as collateral for the lives of her and her sisters what would they do?

She got on her hand and knees and started throwing up everything that went down, the sour taste of half-digested food and beer were engraved in her mouth, she tried to take a breath but the puke just came on coming, and after it was all gone she could just cry. She heard someone screaming her name but she didn’t care she cried until she passed out, she knew that eventually, they would all know and she would truly be without anyone she didn’t want it to happen but she knew it was the truth.

When she woke up she was on an uncomfortable bed, the sheets were rough, the pillows were hard, and the blankets were thin. She was in one of the abandoned stones in the wood houses, the sunlight from the open window burned her eyes as she tried to open them, once she finally sat up straight she was greeted by a tall drenchen man leaning against the bed she was on. He was sleeping… He was, “Gurjin?” She screamed as she jumped back in shock, but that scream had woke up Gurjin along with every other person in the town. “Seladon… Good morning” Gurjin being his old bubbly self greeted Seladon ignoring the fact that she was freaking out. “Wha- What am I doing here? What are YOU doing here?” her screaming didn't stop, Gurjin stood up his dreadlocks fell over his shoulders and back as he towered over Seladon. “Why are you screaming so much? You’re gonna wake everybody up.” Gurjin managed to quiet down Seladon for the moment, but then he asked a question that made Seladon's stomach sink.

“Why did I find you in the woods passed out with puke on the ground?” Seladon instantly remembers everything that happened last night and her pale face instantly flushed, “AaA!? I, uhh.” She scrambles trying to look for a reasonable excuse, “You don’t have to tell me I just wanted to know if everything is alright. Gotta protect the All Maudra, right?” Seladon looks at him with a blank expression, “Yes you're right. I must lead all of Gelfling kind to victory, against the Skeksis empire.” Her voice was monochrome as she said that she looked as if her body was on auto-pilot or her mind was somewhere else. Gurjin was confused by this sudden change but didn’t mention it, “I’ll be off now.” Seladon walks off into the town to look for her sister.

As she walked through the stone in the wood village she saw the way all the gelfling of different clans interacted with each other. The Vapra and Sprinton soldiers all acted as if they were better than everybody else, never referring to the drenchen by their names but by their race. The sifan were staying away from everybody, mainly just doing what they needed to do without interaction. The grotton were avoided like the plague, nobody but the dousan would interact with one. All stone in the wood gelfling that remained were childlings and their caretakers, all the soldiers were either fused with the arathim spitters or drained. And the dousan were tending to everybody's wounds, and nurturing all of the injured, even if the majority of them couldn’t read they did have the best doctors and medicine in all of Thra.

As she looked around the town, she saw nothing but division, Even though the gelfing race had started a new era we were still stuck in the last one. This is what the Skeksies had done to us, we were all one but none of us saw that, and that’s why they’ve remained in power for 2000 trine.

“Seladon!” she heard her name so she looked around to find the source and found her sister, “Brea! I've been looking for you.” They hug each other before Brea drags her off, “the Maudras are having a meeting, but they can’t make any real decisions without you.” Brea led Seladon to what was once where the late Maudra Fara would ten to the needs of her people, all the Maudras were standing in a circle conversing obviously panicked, but when Seladon stepped into the room they all went silent. “All Maudra Seladon.” all at once they bowed to her, and the awkwardness in the room was too much to bear. The first to act was Maudra Maudra, “How are we actually supposed to wage war on the Skeksises? How are-” Maudra Seethi cut her off “Mara! Did you not ask that question at Seladon's coronation?” Seethi is very obviously annoyed.

Maudra Argot spoke up trying to calm the others down “Everybody. Let’s allow our Maudra to speak.” She motions to Seladon inputting her into the conversation, “Uhh…” The anxiety inside of Seladon takes a deep breath and remembers all the meetings she had to sit through with her mother. “I- I officially want to go to war with the Skeksisies. They drain us gelfling for our essence to ensure they don’t die, they’ve been diving us scine the start of the era of divvsion, everythign they’ve ever done is to ensure they maintainpower over us gelfling, but all of that officially ends today.” All of the Maudra look at eachother their faceses amixure of calm, worried, and fear. *Clop!* Maurda Leaside Bangs her cane on the group instantly grabbed the attention of everybody in the room. “Why are we still thinking about this?” She glares at all the ladies in the room.

“It doesn’t matter if we go to war or not, We Will Be Drained.” *Panting* Maudra Mara’s breaks her silence and screams “How are we supposed to go to war with immortal Skeksies? We are nothing compared to the-” Someone put their hand on Maras back and grabs her face, “We are thousands compared to eighteen! Their are over fivethousdand Gelfing of everyrace of thra, not including those of mixed blood. Their are eighteen Skeksies on Thra, we will survive!” The calm and colected Maudra Seethi barred a person for the first time in what feels like forever, “Fara is dead! Our sister has fallen by the hadns of the Skeksies and as you sit here wailing the Skeksies are probably scheming. Pull yourself together Mara!”

As Brae stands their watching the women she looked up to scine the day she was born, panic, and scream at eachother, she realises that this never happened when mother was around. Mother could always keep the maudras in check, none of them doubted her, Maudra Fara even said that she’d follow her into the mouth of the mondoleviaden if it was what she wished for. “Everybody Quiet!” This is the first time she ever seen Seladon genuinely angry, she would always get mad at her but it was more frustration or sadness but never true anger. “Is this how you would all act if my mother was here? Or Maudra Fara? The woman who probably has the most battle knowledge died right before a war stared, and our All Maudra is also dead. The skeksies took out our most reliable leaders and now were all lost, but I urge you all to calm yourselves.” This was the first time brea ever saw her mother in Seladon. She’s always been the perfect heiress, she never talked back to mother, everything about her appearance was perfect, she was well educated, and she was trained since birth in leading our people. So seeing her like this was exzlierating for brea, shocking, but still fun to watch. “We need to prepare for an attack, considering the skeksies have been able to fool us for twothousand trine they’ll probably strike first, but we cant act before we know what were up against. They might try to get the podlings on their side this time around, so we need to focus on defense, and we have to make sure we have enough food and water for everyone.” Maudra Ethri but’s in, “What do you mean by “Everyone”?” Seladon looks at her confused “Everyone is what I mean? I believe it’s best if All gelfling stay together until our threat is defeted, Power in numbers you know.” *Gasp* All of the maudras including brea look at seladon in shock. “What about? Uhh…” Maudra Mara tries to reject her proposal but can’t think of a good reason to, “Where will we all go? Will see stay in certain capitals, or will we completely abandon our towns?” The once calm seethi started to distress, and that made all the other maudra’s worry but Brea offers a answer.

“We can pick the places hardest for skeksis to get to. I bet it would be hard for them to get theri carriages into the caves of grot, the great sog, and the crystal dessert.” All the other maudras look around filled with doubt. “But we need to think of food, and the only place that growns alot of fruit out of those three places is the great sog. unless you’re all fine eating moss everyday, and escaping nurlock attacks?” Maudra Arogot inputs her two sense. “Shouldn’t we think about sami thicket? They have alot of fertile land we can’t just leave it?” Maudra Ethri tried to calm down Mara with her nomonation. “And they have one of the biggest capitals, they’ll be able to hold the most people.” Maudra Leaside is annoyed by all the ruckus. “Ladies! Please stop arguing. We need to think of places the skeksis can’t get to easily, but we can still thrive in… well, we won’t be able to thrive, but we need to be able to survive. We all saw the magic The Emporoe used, what happenes if any settlement is attacked and the grotto girl isn’t with them?”

“What happened to the collector could happen to any number of gelfling.” Seethi cuts off Maudra Leaside and the chaotic room instantly quiets down. Seladon gets up from her chair. “This meeting is adjourned. Brea.” Seladon and her sister leave the throne room and soon all the other Maudra’s soon follow. But Maudra Mara and Maudra Ethri were last in the room but before Ethri could leave the room Mara stops her. “Can we talk."

Seladon and brea walk through the town square, “The second sun is centered, we were seriously in their for that long?” brea comments on the time to try and get a reaction out of Seladon. “Yeah, mothers meeting would rag on for a long time, I would always loose track.” Brea is trying to strike up a conversation with Seladon but it’s ineffective, Seladons mind is somewhere else. Brea spotted a certain dousan boy and sneaks off, and Seladon walks back into the woods.

Part of me still wishes the Emperor chose to fully play into Seladon's loyalty. Like they had her, the new All Maudra, right where they wanted her. Fully loyal and even willing to sacrifice a few Gelfs to them each trine. SkekSo ofc said no but they could've actually won if they'd kept Seladon under their control.

I guess there's something to be said for Skeksis shortsightedness though. SkekSo was never a very patient guy even early in the series.

Part of me likes to think that had skekSil been Emperor he'd have further manipulated Seladon to his cause though. Sil's one of the only Skeksis to think ahead in long-term.

TDC Halloween AU

Ordon is the type of dad to strictly give out one piece per childling you can’t convince me otherwise

Laesid and Bellanji like to just leave the bowl out (Naia always steals it early into the night before anyone else can get it.)

Mayrin will just make the butler do it, or Seladon if she doesn’t make her take her sisters.

Skeksis usually can’t be bothered to give out candy, but when they do, they make the poddling do it and usually SkekAyuk likes to put in gross ingredients (make some candy spicey or cause burping, that sorta thing.)

Rian likes to gather all the kids who are either his friends or like to get a lot of candy and delegate them to maximize profits and all get the most candy for all of them. The older kids like Tolyn and Gurjin are sent to take them trick or treating to keep them in line, Tolyn does but Gurjin turns his eyes away or joins in.

Kylan has to remind everyone to play civil and most of the night breaks up other childling arguing over trading. He does it so much that often Tolyn has to ask for candy for his brother since Kylan is always too busy with making sure no one fights to get candy.

Juni’s house is the most popular on the block as they not only put up spooky decorations but give out full sized candy bars.

Brea likes to look up facts about the candy companies or candy in general and tell everyone as they’re getting it.

Tavra dislikes candy, but goes out to spend time with her sisters, always giving up her candy to Seladon who she knows loves candy even though she denies it.

The librarian tells stories to childling who come up to his door, often his house getting avoided as while they are spooky, they take up a lot of time.

Cadia lives across the street and does the same thing. Who’s ever trick or treaters leaves the door last wins. They try to one up each other, both having the best candy in the neighborhood and trying to get Rian to come to their door as he’s the town’s poster childling tricker treater. He never goes to either though since Ordon tells him not to and it’d be a time waster.

Deet reminds everyone not to give candy to any animals. Also brings treats of her own in case kids can’t eat candy they’re given due to health issues.

Deet’s dads don’t like giving out candy since it can exclude kids so they give out stuffed animals instead.

Rek’yr throws a party for all the adults at night. Most go to discuss the night’s events, kid’s costumes, decorations, though Mayrin and Ordon skip out to spend time with family while the rest of the adults go.

Maudra Argot is said to be a “wild child” at said parties.

Maudra Mera bakes cookies from scratch for trick or treaters.

SkekMal will take one childling per Halloween and childling are told not to go near the forest. It’s why big kids are forced to watch after the younger ones (even though some would rather be studying or going to the big party on the block).

That’s it! Give me some recs for anyone I missed ^^

Behind-The-Scenes Facts from Puppeteers I Spoke to at the Great Con

Helena Smee told me that Seladon in her goth All-Maudra costume was especially difficult not only due to the extra weight, but also the train of the dress; they didn’t remove it even after filming the brief open shots of Seladon walking into the throne room in case Louis Letirrier wanted to film it again at another angle, so during close-up shots the train was basically pinned to Helena’s back while she lifted the puppet

I asked Warrick Brownlow-Pike if he was surprised by how popular Freckles became within the fandom, his answer: yes and no. He knew Freckles would look very charming and that people would love his physical design, but he wasn’t quite expecting all the fan art and overall hype surrounding the character. Also see my previous post for what he said about Freckle’s actual name

Louise Gold told me that Onica was going to have a much bigger role in a second season than she did in the first. Hopefully if we get some kind of continuation, she will!

I was so honored to have spoken with these puppeteers and thank them for their hard work in bringing their respective characters to life 💜

Christine Daaé knew she must not look back.

Imprints In Time

(POTO, rated T. Prequel to my other two POTO fics, exploring an origin story for Madame Giry: her childhood in a Romani caravan, her rise through the ballet corps, how she met and lost her husband Jules, and most of all, her long and complicated relationship with Erik.)

Anna Reinhardt was admiring her earrings for the third time that day.

Katabasis

(The Dark Crystal, rated T. Seven years after the Great Conjunction, the surviving urSkeks discover a new threat to both their world and Thra.

Features a lot of Jen/Kira, who are expecting their first child.)

The light was every bit as bright as they remembered.

I'll Keep You

(The Dark Crystal, rated T. Silly, fluffy oneshot involving skekLach reluctantly getting a makeover in Ha'rar after her clothes are ruined on the tithing journey. SkekLach/skekOk, and also features some of my headcanons about Gelfling wedding customs.)

“Ah, some happy news!”

Mine

(The Dark Crystal, rated M. AU oneshot where, instead of declaring war on the Gelfling after Lore's attack, skekSo tries to strengthen his alliance with the new All-Maudra Seladon by proposing marriage. Seladon moves to the Castle, gets in touch with her inner Skeksis, and eventually takes matters into her own hands to get her new husband's attention. SkekSo/Seladon.)

For once in his life, Emperor skekSo listened to moderation.

A Prophecy Reclaimed

(SWAT Kats, rated T. Prequel to the episode "Bride of the Pastmaster", featuring a teenaged Queen Callista, her grandmother Oriana, and how their family's troubles with the Pastmaster first began.)

Oct 15, 2021, Watched: Mayrin has her older daughters help her with correspondence and reads out bad news from the Sifa- Tavra hides her terror and relief when Onica is mentioned to be alive, aware that her mother is watching.

Nov 1, 2021, Unchanged: Tavra bickers with the newly re-woken Tae over if a spider could still be All-Maudra while Onica shushes them so she can read their map, secretly happy they are both themselves again.

Mar 21, 2022, Outdoors Part 1: Dialogue of Tavra convincing Onica to give the dangerous and absurd idea of skiing a try, in return for Tavra accepting swimming lessons from her.

Mar 21, 2022, Outdoors Part 2: Tavra is very proud of Onica for surviving the skiing, and Onica agrees to try again later- much later.

May 24, 2022, Homesick: Reuniting in the spring, Onica doesn't mind the lingering cold as long as she's with Tavra, and Tavra gives her a shawl to help keep her warm even when they aren't together.

Jun 30, 2022, Truth: Tavra compares soothsaying to reading an opponent during a duel, which Onica teases her about- until Tavra observes that the true power of Onica's reading and dreams comes from the respect people have in her wisdom to interpret them.

Jul 30, 2022, Song: With her wings freshly torn from her, Onica is in pain and in need of distraction- she asks Tavra for a song, and Tavra quietly sings her the ancient song of the imperial unamoth.

Oct 21, 2022, Interruption: A tipsy Tae and Ethri make the mistake of visiting Onica's ship to insist she and Tavra name their childlings after them- and Onica answers by tossing them overboard.

Nov 9, 2022, Guess: Brea and Seladon try to guess which woman Tavra is in love with, and when Seladon dismisses the idea of any sort of interclan relationship Tavra can't help touching her pearl amulet- feeling the weight of the secret she's keeping.

Nov 18, 2022, Impossibilities: Tavra laments to Onica about how her sisters tease her and Onica suggests Tavra let them in on their secret- but Tavra fears Mayrin would never forgive them for knowing.

Jan 12, 2023, Oops: Tae is ecstatic to meet her Silverling and prove Onica's dream true- Tavra is alarmed by this, which makes Onica smile, which makes Tavra gay.

Jan 29, 2023, Reassurance: Onica skips stones on the beach while being very not happy with Mayrin's pressuring Tavra, or with Tavra's self-sacrificing tendencies- Tavra hands her more stones to throw and quietly reaffirms that she won't give up being with Onica.

Feb 3, 2023, Reassurance 2: Tavra gifts Onica a shawl which Onica realizes Tavra made herself- while missing Onica, while wondering if Onica would come back- and they dreamfast in the moonlight about it.

Feb 15, 2023, Picky: Onica roams the docks unable to find a gift for Tavra while an exasperated Tae asks what she even wants to give anyway- the answer is simply, something perfect.

Mar 3, 2023, Dark: Tavra lies awake in the Sog worrying about the choices she makes and wishing aloud that she could speak with Onica, while she plaits her hair into a Sifan braid.

Mar 15, 2023, Picky part 2: Tae hauls Onica back onto their boat, complaining that Onica's done enough pearl diving to have a whole string of pearls if she wasn't so picky- but Onica's newest find shuts her up quick.

Mar 24, 2023, Seer: Elder Cadia uses a bone reading to dig into Tavra's insecurities around only ever earning her mother's pride while acting as a soldier- until Onica 'accidentally' interrupts the reading, and Tavra falls in love with again.

Mar 30, 2023, Repair: Onica wraps herself in the shawl Tavra made and remembers a night when Tavra sat by her fire mending it, just likes she always does, simply out of love.

Apr 6, 2023, Impact: Onica takes Tavra sailing and tries not to laugh when Tavra catches a fish.

Apr 15, 2023, Claim: Ethri wonders if Tavra will understand the meaning of being given a pearl- but Onica only wants to say she loves her, and that much Ethri is sure Tavra will understand.

Apr 30, 2023, Light: Spider Tavra watches as the morning light wakes a grumpy Onica, brooding on everything she cannot be for her now- but Onica smiles to see her brooding, and Tavra finds she can still laugh.

May 6, 2023, Until: Cadia discovers the pearl Onica intends to give Tavra and tells her Tavra will leave her someday- Onica answers she will hold Tavra until then.

May 18, 2013, Pray: In the Sog, Tavra watches Naia set off alone and asks for her to be watched over, to Bellanji's amusement- unaware that far away, Onica has heard Tavra, and prepares to follow Naia in her dreams.

May 27, 2023, Daring: Onica and Tavra compare differences in their clans' cultures and Onica finally gets an idea for what she wants to gift Tavra.

Jun 2, 2023, Waystar: Onica loses hope after finding out how much Ethri has changed, and Tavra reminds her that fear can change people- and people like Onica can help them to change again.

Jun 18, 2023, Pull: Ethri is interrupted by Onica announcing it's time to sail north- Ethri tries to tease her about being so eager, and quickly regrets it.

Jun 30, 2023, Cliff: Ethri and Tae tease Onica as they sail towards Ha'rar, and their bets on if Tavra will be waiting for her doesn't amuse Onica at all, who isn't so sure- until she spots Tavra waiting upon the cliffs.

Jul 12, 2023, Whole: Tavra tackle hugs Onica and a laughing Onica tries to stop her from worrying so much- which will not work, because Tavra is Tavra.

Jul 21, 2013, Pick: Naia is unimpressed with Onica's taste in women and Tavra specifically, which Tavra agrees with, and Onica very much doesn't.

Aug 3, 2023, Reminder: Onica reflexively hides her ruined wings from Tavra, citing that she can manage on her own- Tavra reminders that she doesn't have to and asks to help anyway.

Sep 3, 2023, Storm: Tavra meets a women on a sinking ship who cannot fly but smiles as she hands her friend over to be rescued instead- and even though it's a reckless thing to try, Tavra cannot leave her.

Sep 12, 2023, Fall: Tavra admits it was love at first sight for her as she helps Onica with her scars, and this confession is so ridiculous Onica is pulled out of her own pain to snark about it.

Oct 9, 2023, Stay: Ethri interrupts Onica and Tavra's rare time together with Far-Dreamer's business, but instead of leaving Onica to it, Tavra instead starts helping her prepare for the dreaming- not at all bothered if it should take all night.

Oct 18, 2023, Torn: Onica is annoyed by Tavra's eagerness to leave the Sifa, telling her to at least let Tae help her, but Tavra doesn't want to give Tae the wrong idea, asking Onica instead- and Onica agrees, deciding Tavra's choice matters more than her own dream.

Oct 27, 2023, Mending: Onica realizes Tavra tricked her into doing her exercises even back when Onica didn't like- an embarrassed Tavra insists Onica's dislike was reasonable, and Onica admits that even then, she hadn't wanted Tavra to leave.

Nov 3, 2023, Foretell; Tae pops her head in to let Onica know her girlfriend has arrived with flowers, and playfully asks an ominous question. Onica finishes advising a Sifa captain and laughs, giving an equally carefree answer.

Nov 9, 2023, Petals; Mayrin finds Tavra's bedroom door open to a sea breeze and hears her daughter has slipped away from her duties again. When she finds some flower petals on Tavra's floor, she crushes them.

Nov 18, 2023, Thought; Tavra brings Onica a lot of dead, dried flowers. Onica thinks this is very sweet.

Nov 27, 2023, Morning: Onica does not like mornings. Arguably she still doesn't, but waking up with Tavra almost makes them worthwhile.

Dec 15, 2023, Unseen An injured Tavra thought she could hide being hurt as long as Onica hadn't seen the hurt happen in far dreams, but Onica is perceptive, and patient, and can make Tavra crumble dejectedly with just a look.

Dec 24, 2023, Son Spider Tavra watches Onica teaching Kylan how to sail like a Sifa and thinks maybe they ended up having a child together anyway.

Jan 3, 2024, Lost Onica forgot about her missing wings for a moment, Tavra holds her tight as she remembers.

Jan 27, 2024, Usual Tavra and Onica sharing Sifa gossip in which they both know each other far too well.

Seladon: Santa is kind of an asshole, he works one day of the trine and spends the rest of it judging you.

Brea: I think you two would get on well then.

It’s been a goal of mine to sing this song ever since I heard it the first time way back in 2019. I did this maybe a month or so ago. It may not be the best because I was lying on my stomach and my cat decided it was the perfect time to sleep on my back lol

The All-Maudra Funeral song is so beautiful yet haunting. I love how everyone (except Naia) lends their voice at different parts of the song and harmonize beautifully. The contrast between our heroes’ funeral for Mayrin and Seladon’s will always be a favorite of mine. All in all, the All-Maudra Ceremony scene is my favorite scene in the entire series.

Aside from drawing I enjoy singing and “voice acting” the voice acting is something I do occasionally like when I’m playing a game where everyone but the mc has a voice lol Maybe I’ll share the one video I have of me doing a voice

One of these days I’ll do a storyboard/animatic and redo the vocals.

#thanatasia #dark crystal #dark crystal age of resistance #dark crystal aor #gelfling #my singing voice #singing #not the most interesting visual to pair with the vocals but I can’t do an amazing storyboard atm #all maudra ceremony song

Here is my Trollsona, Rose. I took inspiration from Queen Elena Castillo from Elena of Avalor, All-Maudra Mayrin, Maudra Fara, and Seladon II from The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, Grand Duchess Anastasia from the movie, Anastasia, Stella Goetia from Helluva Boss, and Elissabat from the Monster High franchise. Rose is the high queen of the Platinum Trolls, the ruling tribe of the troll kingdom, who stripped Creek’s ancestor and his family for abusing the power of the strings and all the tribes live in isolation but they only come together to crown a new high king or queen, which is usually the eldest child. As Harmonia’s direct descendant and fiftieth great-grandniece, Rose is meant to take the throne after her late father but she disappeared into the Troll Kingdom as she let the old capitol crumble into ruins because of the sneaky court trolls’ forced marriage that led to them fighting each other for the throne until it ended with their deaths and the entire tribe left their old home to find new ones since their supposed leader is gone. Rose fled with the Crown of Harmony, an ancient artifact that can find the next high king or high queen. When the true ruler or heir wears it, the crown begins to glow. She moved from one place to another in secrecy that she changed her look to become unrecognizable with the singing lions trailing behind her, as they are the only ones who can identify the true ruler, aside from the crown itself. She was on the run for many years but the World Tour had changed her direction forever. witnessed the destruction through the World Tour, realizing that she is destined to be the high queen because not everybody is destined to do great things but she should be proud to be born to do something amazing for the entire troll kingdom. It takes courage and heart to think beyond herself in order to overcome her fears and help the entire kingdom. She finally reveals herself in Queen Barb’s victory concert by placing the Crown of Harmony on her head, accepting her role as high queen. An official coronation was held in Pop Village to celebrate her return. Donning a golden gemstone encrusted headband, she now settles in Trollstopia in a castle, near Platinum City, where the members of her tribe live, and she must now learn to rule as its new high queen. Rose's adventures will lead her to understand that her new role requires thoughtfulness, resilience, and compassion, the traits of all truly great leaders. Since she is still new to the throne, she has the Tribal Council to give advice along the way, aside from helping her keeping the interests of the local Trolls' well-being. Rose also looks to her childhood friends, Tresillo, Marimba and Tambora, Jussy @jade-green-butterfly, Emi @groovinyeen, and the other subtribes for guidance and support. She also experiences the ups and downs of life from a broken heart (from breaking up with her ex, Chaz) to finding new love (from dating Lownote Jones, whom she broke up with and remain as friends). She treats all trolls as equals and seems fascinated by the Bergens, finding them interesting, though she gets embarrassed by a lot of awkward moments. Trolls © DreamWorks Animation
