1. Prologue

"Once upon a time, fairies were just as dark and savage as the Dark Forest."

"Really?"

"Yes, my dear. We had darkness in our hearts, and could be as brutal and vicious as Goblins are."

"What happened?"

"We found the sun, darling. Slowly, the darkness faded from us, but not all."

"What happens when we go dark?"

"A fairy gone dark is a dark fairy indeed. I was the last to turn, but you will be able to do so as well, as well as your child. I can remember the pain and agony and rage. I was so...hungry."

"Hungry?"

"Dark fairies are bloodthirsty, yes, but it is for survival. We require raw meat and the chase for food."

"I don't want to eat raw meat."

"I hope you will never have to as well. Goodnight, my sweet Marianne."

"Night daddy."
