#a penguin who ended swimming near the mountain could swear they heard the prince's name coming out of the clouds

[mewunderthetruck]

A little extra from the au that I wanted to share:

The wells from Maria's Magicant are replaced by a beach. The ocean doesn't seem to end. However, there's something in the middle: an enormous mountain covered in red clouds. It works like the cave from beneath Maria's Magicant: the deeper you go (in this case, the higher you go), the closer you will be to the real world. Once you reach the summit, you can exit.

But those clouds hold something sinister, something wicked. Something that will try to attack you on sight. Something Ninten doesn't want to think about, really.

Also, you will need a boat. And this Magicant doesn't have any boats, or at least that's what the prince says.
