    Just for reference, the tradition in fairy tales is for the foolish son to go on adventures and be successful. And Jack is in various stories, the Jack be Nimble rhyme, Jack and the Beanstalk and as referenced on page one, Jack and Jill(ian). I hadn't thought of the Jack Napier reference, but that's great too. Fun stuff from Rob.

    So interesting. And yes, if he's that much a master foolamancer not just to veil but to throw out distractions, then its a nice bonus. One 'silver lining'. When you don't have 11 cities anymore and just have to defend one, your defenders at least aren't spread out. The casters Stanley had left at GK seem pretty nice power levels.

    Jack and Jillian were pals in FAQ
    And guarded it from every foe
    But Stanley that hack,
    had Jack linked in a pack
    to control where his pieces would go.

    When the link was broke,
    Poor Jack was smote,
    His mind broken without will.
    But when he heard his name,
    and saw his dame,
    Jack and Jill went up the hill
    to fight for FAQ again.
