Syfy has now given us a glimpse at the fate of our heroes with the trailer for season 2, revealing them to be miraculously alive (apparently thanks to Alice), and set to become the new rulers of the magical realm of Fillory. However, the threat of The Beast still lingers, and it remains to be seen if the group can muster the power to defeat him once and for all.
