A thousand miles and poles apart
Where worlds collide and days are dark
You may have my number, you can take my name
But you'll never have my heart

First entry in a new series. The rest coming Very Soon™️.

Gigantic thank you to Uncle Nicolini who helped me shape this up to its final form — couldn't have done this without them.

Another thank you to Arcydziegiel | JakdragonX | Trotskyeet | Roundabouts | Jasiu06 | The Pighead | R4_EX | Captain Kirby for their invaluable critique.

The "Nobody" blurb in one of the journal logs is an edited version of the one from the Groups Of Interest page, and the final journal log was inspired by SCP-5555.

For tagging purposes: This is a Nobody GoI Format, not a tale — didn't want to parent the Nobody Hub page to this one since it would spoil the ending.

"His name was Damien Nowak"

……….goddamnit , this was a twist i wasn't expecting , I literally went "oh shit" after reading that ( *furiously smashed the upvote button*) also , is Queen Mab sealed away now courtesy of the holy crossbow Nowak pierced her essence ?

also , is Queen Mab sealed away now courtesy of the holy crossbow Nowak pierced her essence ?

he only killed the part of her that was in SCP-4000; the rest of her still has some access to baseline through SCP-001-B, but you'll find out more about it with next installments :)

Fate of the Fae and 4000

I’m confused, what affect did killing that portion of Queen Mab have in the fae in 4000 as well as the 4000 forest? Did they revert back to their original form and got their names back, or did he just free them from some form of spiritual agony place on them by Queen Mab? Also did he turn the 4000 forest into a more docile, habitable and beautiful place? I’d like to know the answers to these questions

Either way I’m glad to see that you’re doing a sequel canon!

Definitely an Upvote +1 from me!

basically, he killed an aspect of mab that was terrorizing the nameless within 4000; it got there sometime after the original 4000 massacre in an attempt to destroy the nameless totally. but nobody killed that aspect, freeing some of the nameless that she got to and started controlling, freeing them from some part of their agony

Can't wait for more, especially since this seems to have a deeper focus on fae.

Also, taboo being free from Mabs grasps gives me ideas… +1

Happy you enjoyed it!

One small clarification: the Nameless didn't necessarily become freed from 4000; some of them did, but only partially, as freeing all of them completely would require the destruction of the entirety of Mab. If the ideas ever turn to articles though, lemme know; would gladly crit them :)

I honestly would love the idea that in the end all the nameless Fae within 4000 are freed and gotten their names back, which also reverts them back to their original forms (Most likely because of Nobody’s actions). Maybe once Mab is finally dead for good Triumviraté will also die off.

By the way, is there any connection between the Queen Mab in this canon and the one in Corbenic? If you don’t know what I mean, look at this article

Oh don't you worry, that will one day come, friend.

As for the other thing, never heard about it; they're not connected.

Ah, Nowak. I remember that name when I critted the 120 canon hub. God, that was a while ago. Anyhow, this is a pretty solid entry. The pace is good, and each of Nobody's entries are really substantial, working as a good intro for this series. The revelation was also done real well, even without having the full impact as I have not read AETWMA. That's always a good thing to have imo, for your article to have a strong personality despite being a piece of a bigger puzzle.
