The fairies of Pixie Hollow gasped as a white and blue feather, encased in dust settled gently onto the grass. Terence, representative of the dust talent pixies, poured a chalice of glittering pixie dust on to the feather. Queen Clarion, dressed in a golden dress made from pixie dust appeared in a ball of light, fluttering her golden, glowing wings happily. The feather took form of a fairy – she had long, straight red hair, earthen green eyes and wheatish skin. "Hello? Where am I?" her voice was soft and musical like rose petals. Clarion smiled. "Born from laughter, clothed in cheer, happiness has brought you here. Welcome to Pixie Hollow. I trust the winds brought you here safely?" she said softly. The fairy nodded.
"Wonderful. Now, let the Choosing Ceremony begin!" Queen Clarion waved her hand and a ring of toadstools appeared. Several pixie representatives came forth, placing glowing elements on the toadstools. The new pixie reached out and touched a flower. It stopped glowing and sank. She touched a bubble and it sank, too. So did the little hurricane of wind and the snowflake. As she passed by the willow branch, it lifted up and swirled around her, pulsing with energy. The other fairies shielded their eyes. When the light died out, Clarion came forward, smiling sweetly. "I present to you, Willow Underwood, Animal Fairy. Fawn, meet your fellow pixie." Then she vanished.
An energetic fairy with freckles and a long braid of brown hair flew at once to Willow's side. "Come on! Let's explore!" she yelled, flying off. Then she came back. "Oh, and my name is Fawn." She flew off, and Willow had hardly any time to catch up.
