Oh Rose Red. You try so hard, and you still get everything so very wrong.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Bigby is still shattered into millions of pieces, and Snow is holed up with her kids (those that are left) trying to avoid her death and a war within Fabletown.<\/p>\n

Aside from the HEAVY foreshadowing that we are not going to get a happily every after, we do get two threads I really liked. One was the North Wind coming into her powers, and the other was a brief glimpse into the afterlife. I really enjoyed the quick glimpse at one of my favorite characters.<\/p>\n

I’m also almost dreading the coming conclusion, after all the preparation for horrible things.
