Later managing to shift herself back to the same frame of reference, however, Jenny discovered that after making it out of the mansion, Glendalf and the Orcs had indeed headed back to [[Faerie]], where they came under threat from the [[Queen of Faerie]] herself.

Glendalf is a transparent parody of {{w|Gandalf|Gandalf}}, the wizard from J.R.R. Tolkien's ''Hobbit'' and ''Lord of the Rings''; the setup of him appearing at the protagonist's door with a number of representatives of a nonhuman species mirrors the opening scene of ''The Hobbit'', where Gandalf arrives at Bilbo Baggins's door with a troop of [[Dwarf|Dwarves]]. | Glendalf is a transparent parody of {{w|Gandalf|Gandalf}}, the wizard from J.R.R.
