The emperor shifted slightly, feeling a cold breeze wisp along his skin as he made his way out to the terrace. His footsteps echoed down the hall as he walked over to open the wide, glass doors.
His kingdom was a small one, but could easily overcome most in a battle of power. Zeref brushed his dark hair away from his eyes and adjusted his sash.
As he looked out, he noticed a small girl jumping around on the buildings, a strange white trail following her as she graceful leaped across the rooftops.
Zeref watched her for a while, but suddenly she fell. Before he could think about what he was doing, he leapt over the terrace railing and onto the ground below, running towards the fallen figure.
He found her, lying unconscious in a small garden filled with fallen magnolia blossoms. She had very long blonde hair with small wing-like adornments at her ears.
She looked like a fairy. Zeref brushed her hair out of her face, and she opened her eyes to reveal a magnificent jade colour.
They stared at eachother for a moment, before she whispered a quiet "Thank you." and disappeared.
