Midsummer Night's Dream Arc

The Midsummer Night's Dream Arc was the second Arc of Bronze Mettle. The main chapters dealt with SI's first expedition into the Spirit World, on the summer solstice, and her first encounter with the Ten Rings, and Makluan technology. The Bonus chapters involved her reunion with Jane Foster, and the founding of the Order of the Phoenix.

The title of the Arc references the Shakespeare play, "A Midsummer Night's Dream", about fairies who meddle in the lives of mortals. Two of the chapter titles reference the Wizard of Oz, which is about a girl being trapped in a strange land she doesn't understand. Three chapter titles reference the Lord of the Rings saga, which involves a Ring of Power.
