She sneers. "I do whatever I want. Now answer my question. Or maybe I should trap you like the vermin you seem to enjoy so much." An illusion appears in her hand: a box of gold, somehow rusted purple.
The humanoid sighs. "I'm Sage. I saw what you summoned, and I haven't eaten real food in a few days. Who are you?"
"Tantalia, sole Queen of the Sugarplum Court." She crushes the box as if it were a physical object, complete with the painful squeaking and screeching of metal. When she opens her hand again, there is a heavily spiced roast chicken in it, dripping with fat. He impales it with a claw, and clear, steaming juice runs out as she holds the bird out to the humanoid. "You have a gift, Sage. You should be able to eat whenever you want. More than that, even."
She steps away. "I don't eat meat."

I live under a rock, but at least it's a pretty cool rock!
The Queen cackles madly. "Oh, don't worry, little creatures! I would never poison children! Especially not before the Fall Festival!" She grabs Alty by the collar and dumps a massive fistful of sugarplums into his hands. Up close, her gigantic size is clear. She's not just floating, she'd probably be 10 feet tall if she walked. "Aren't you a sweet little thing! I could just eat you up! You want to share with your friends!"
He shivers a bit. "I can have candy whenever I want, but they can't. I feel bad for them... I actually never thought to summon candy for them."
"Oh, you poor dear!" She pouts, patting him on the head. "I'm sure you would have thought of it eventually. After all, power must be applied properly!" She lectures. "These children... are they hungry?"
"This village hasn't been getting enough supplies lately. They're running short."

She steps away. "I don't eat meat."
"FEH!" The Queen bites a third of the bird off, crunching on its bones and giblets. "What? You think that it is a sin to take? What's dead is dead." She speaks with her mouth full. "You can't fix it, and you can't stop the slaughter by closing the door."

She leans close, gripping the scruff of his neck between two enormous fingers. Her expression is faintly sad, and faintly mocking. "Really, now? You can say that with a straight face? You are a fey. The natural world bows to your every step. If you have a problem, you take steps to fix it. TAKE!" She roars, letting go of him and stomping on the ground, cracking the earth where her heel strikes. "Unless you want to bury your town when the food runs dry."

Sage rolls her eyes. "Yeah, sure. I'll just listen to the random otherworldly being who can summon things out of thin air. I can make my own decisions."

'They will sell. Can I help ya, or something?' He seems visibly weirded out
"Oh, I doubt you can." She smiles knowingly. "Other than your musical talent, I can't imagine you would be of much help. That talent makes up for it though, doesn't it?"

Evalryn walks through the town with her cloak upon her head. She stops by a building, waving her hand In front of the brickwork, and glowing red symbols are carved into the surface. It reads:
"The Teacher is waking. The Teacher provides knowledge. The Teacher provides power. Meet behind the Tavern at midnight to join the Teacher's cause."
Surrounding the inscription are strange glyphs, depicting tentacles and eyeballs. The patterns seem to shift every so often, swirling against the stone. Evalryn smiles, before continuing on her walk.
