Northern Louisiana, Late Spring, Modern Times

I’ve stepped off the plane and into a whole other world—a dreary, gray skied world of unending oak and pine and hawthorn trees. It’s very befitting of my mood. I step closer to the glass wall of the Menden airport to get a better look at my new world—Northern Louisiana. It used to be Dallas, Texas. With civilization and football games and going to get ice cream at the nearest Baskin and Robin’s every Sunday. And my dad, Jason Stone.
Of course, this all changed when he was murdered.
Great Aunt Emma Lee is waiting for me at the luggage claim, I just know it. Even from lengths away I can sense that she is wearing her My-Grand-Niece-Is-Late-Just-Like-Her-Father expression that makes her look like she's just seen a bug she’d like to squish.
I was named after her, well only sort of. My name is Cassandra Emmalyn Stone. Most people only call me Cass, though.
I know I’ll be chastised for being late, but I don’t care. I just keep on ambling at a very slow pace. Letting everyone else pass me by.
It seems like I don’t care about anything anymore.
Except for one little thing.
Finding out who killed my father.
And who the Fey are, and if they were involved. And if I’m half Fey, is my mom still alive?
Okay, not so little.
But I will find out.
I will.
