aeries..........that's what they had called themselves
anyway. They had quickly taken in the young girl and welcomed her
into their world. They had explained to her that they were
destined to meet. They actually had been expecting her. They
young girl was in awe of all the different faeries that she saw
around her.
They came in all different sizes and colors. Their
world was beautiful. It seemed to glow in the night. The sky was
completely black but she could see the color of the flowers as if
each and every one had their own spotlight.
From that
moment on, the faeries became her second family. They taught her
the ways of nature and the magic that surrounded it. They taught
her the beauty of life and how to enjoy it to its fullest.
Every
night she could wait to sneak out of the house and join the
faeries in their nightly dances.
They
explained to her that she to possesed magic within her, a magic
that other mortals would not understand. They felt it was their
destiny to take her under their wing (no pun intended) and teach
her that magic was not an evil thing, but something necessary to
the natural order of the world.
They
lived playfully and happy for a short time. But obstacles were
closer than she could have ever imagined.....
