Not even a moment later I feel the floor under my feet again and I could finally breath. Once I composed myself I look around and found myself in a place that looks moore like a ballroom than a tree. the branches twisted around the hall giving the impression of large windows and everywhere hang beutiful decorations and lanterns. mushrooms sticking out creating little chairs and balconies and at the center of one of the 'walls' poured a waterfall of golden sparkling stars.

"queen Clarion!" they call out. I look around to see where she was and a bright floating light approach us in the shape of a glowing butterfly before reforming into a tall beutiful lady dressed in a material that perfectly mirrored the golden waterfall, her gown reaching beyond her feet hovering just above the floor. The sight leaving me in aw and I somehow get down on my knees bowing at the grace not daring to say a word.

She just look at me and giggle softly in a way that never could be taken as mockery and she tells me that she is flattered but that there was no need for such formalitys here. I raise my head but remain sitting on my knees still not able to say a word. Luckily the others fills her in on who I was and why I was here. After hearing my story she nods gracefully at them and approach me kneeling down beside me.

"Affrey.." she speaks in a regal yet soothing voice. "I'm sorry that you had to live alone all these years..."

She went on telling me a story that very few knew about. Normaly when a fairy is born it's from the first laughter of a child, the wind will carry it all the way here to the pixiedust tree where they would recieve their first touch of pixiedust giving them wings and a home. However if that laughter is interupted or the wind dissapears then the seed will fall back to the earth and the fairy meant to be born that day will cease to exist unless they choose to give up their wings, magic and home to live. I where the first one she had met to have made that choice and survived.

Hearing this story me and the others start to cry. I'm just so happy! I thank her and she tells me she was honored to meet someone like me. Also it was probably best if I settled down in Tinkers Nook since I couldn't fly yet. I didn't ask what she meant by that but thanked her again.

"Looks like we got another one for our team." Bobble said poking his friend.

"We should go and tell the others to prepare a house for our new friend." Clanke responds already halfway out the window. I just laugh at how excited they where for my sake. 'This is going to be an adventure alright'

Fawn helps me down the massive tree and the two of us begin our journey to Tinkers Nook. The guys had flewn ahead to make preparations to give me a home there. We chat like we were sisters long since separated finally meeting eachother again, even tho this was the first time we'd ever met. We probably look like sisters since I were still dressed in one of her extra outfits,wich also made me seem like less of an outsider to any other me met on our way. Most of them would just greet us like any other day. Some others I'm not so sure if they noticed the lack of wings on my back and chose to not say anything or if they were just shy meeting a new face. 'I guess I'll find out sooner or later once the rumour start spreading, sure a novelty like me wheren't to pass easily.'

We soon arrive at our destination and were met up by Clanke who says they aren't quite finished with my house yet. I hadn't expected them to be as I knew how intricate such work usually is. He tells me they are building it to suit my needs and was making sure I was going to like it. I'm not sure if he meant something more than keeping it at ground level for easy acces, but I assure him I would like it regardless and subtly remind him that I had lived in and out of the streets before without much complaint. He responds with an 'oh right' and went back to help the others. I ask if I could help out with anything and the only answers I get is 'have fun' and 'make it a surprise'. I couldn't say no to that so Fawn and I kept on with the tour.
