Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast (2014)
They don't see what I see.
An ancient myth of a massive creature sparks the curiosity of Tinker Bell and her good friend Fawn, an animal fairy who’s not afraid to break the rules to help an animal in need. But this creature is not welcome in Pixie Hollow — and the scout fairies are determined to capture the mysterious beast, who they fear will destroy their home. Fawn must convince her fairy friends to risk everything to rescue the NeverBeast.
In Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast, consciousness is carried by another substrate — a plane of “pixie hollow”. The story fights on E8/E9/E10 of the E0–E14 reality ladder, compressing prejudice, identity, heroism, culture.
