Faeries

TSONM 03/14 It’s the Faery Festival tonight. The faeries from Oriceran visit for one or two nights and they have like a ritual dance and flight to wish luck on the plants and animals for wintertime on Earth. They do it on Oriceran too, but they started coming to Earth as well since winters can be so harsh here.” The faeries used small portals to travel between the systems. Alison and Izzie trekked through the courtyard and over the hills until they reached one that overlooked the orchards below. Alison could already see the glow of magical energy floating through the branches, as well as flashes of energy that she figured were small portals the faeries used to travel from Oriceran to Earth.

The faeries appeared, fluttering through the branches of the fruit trees and swirling through the air in a show of sparkling blue, purple, and green lights. The faeries were prepared for a fun evening exploring the old forests of Charlottesville, and casting magical luck spells on all the foliage to shroud it from the coming frozen winter.

The faeries were some of the loveliest creatures on Oriceran. They were only about five inches tall, with delicate wings that glowed different colors. They had cherubic faces and wore little green outfits, kind of like Tinker Bell. “I bet it’s a blast, flying through the air, always singing, always happy.” The songs of the faeries were comforting too. The music was mild and carefree, and their voices floated through the air like soft flower petals.

Mara said that some years the Queen of the Faeries comes to the celebration. Her light shines gold, and brighter than any of the other faeries out there. When she sings the trees and grass bend toward her, drawn to the natural essence she puts out.” “That would be neat to sense.” Alison smiled. “Do you think she will come tonight?” “I think it depends on what kind of winter she thinks we are going to have. She usually only comes when it will be a bad winter.”
