And drafted.
Next time anyone decides on a course this reckless, I'm going to make sure they're suitably warded first. Spells operate on conditions formulated at the point of casting; they can't be made retroactive. Fate won't allow it, it would mean any rule or existing thread could be completely undone with the stroke of a wand. But someone else could get there beforehand and think like an insurance lawyer; add a 'pre-existing condition' that if not spotted, would take precedence and the next compatible spell would have to obey.

I'm actually a little relieved: this could have turned out much worse. ^_^o Seeming gift horses from the fey are often of the Trojan variety (also the literal variety).
Sympathies to you all the same, Juni. At least Candle's got a wealth of advice. Maybe going through this will even bring you closer than you are.

Enedia: Oh, Juni... I find it hard to be annoyed by your dealings with a fae, regardless of who, but... I can't help but find you utterly adorable. I'm sure that Candlewick would be rather surprised by your new equine appearance. I bet that apple pies and pastries would taste even better with your new form. I'll try and get some for both you and Candlewick, provided, of course, if I am allowed to grant you that.
