That's perhaps one of the more fun aspects of the "Kingdom Keepers" series. How the real Walt Disney World Resort and the fantasy version that Ridley Pearson writes about sometimes overlap and collide.
Take - for example - the recent closure of Mickey's Toontown Fair. "Power Play" actually mentions this in passing. Though - according to Pearson's expertly spun narrative - it's not because of the Fantasyland expansion project. But - rather - to quote from this Disney Hyperion book:
"They've taken down his house, you know? Minnie's, too. 'Updating,' they call it. Don't believe it. It's all because of 'the Night. ' "
None of the Keepers had ever heard of a particular night or event. As a group, they looked at her curiously.
"We heard noises from his house on that night," she continued, oblivious to their confusion. "A struggle of some kind. He's not been seen since ..."
Oooooo, interesting.
