The theme was as clear as day and helped me find ILLUSION at the bottom right. Right on top of it, I found FANTASY, and I knew I was on the right track. The top left corner housed REVERIE and the bottom left, DAYDREAM. Running in the middle of these two words was FIGMENT. Gosh, quite a few big words today.
Anyway, with that, I had to connect the last grids to form MAKEBELIEVE as the Spangram. That brought today’s Strands round to a close. And, no hints were used today either. That’s cool.
