Not that I had much plot. I needed a thing to motivate the riddle game that's the key feature of Child 1, and the thing ended up being 'guy traps sisters with magic, one sister traps him back and challenges him to a magic contest', only the nature of the challenge requires the challenged to name the terms and he goes for riddle game.
...phrased like that the sexual assault sounds extraneous. Not sure whether to hope it is (because then I can be rid of it) or it isn't (because then I wouldn't have to rewrite). I'm leaning toward the latter, because I've got a bit of rape culture meta in there that I like.
