It was a cold afternoon as five of the six remaining daughters of King Oberon and Queen Titania gathered in their private lounge. "It is freezing; even the animals are chilled to the bone." Cordelia said as she sat next to the hearth as Eden, the eldest of the sisters conjured a fire into it.
"It is. The construction of my new library has stopped for the time being" Sancha agreed.
"I hope no one gets seriously ill, I am running low on certain herbs" Hopie said solemnly
"Rathina better not freeze out there" Tania, the youngest muttered
"I require some assistance!" Rathina's voice called from outside. The seventeen year old princess was calf length buried in snow, she was holding up the limp form of an unconscious young woman, around the age of the princess hoisting her up.
Eden snapped her long, thin fingers and the unconscious girl started hovering a few feet off of the snow fall.
"Thank you Eden!" Rathina called as she steered the other girl as she would a cart. A loud snore resonated from the unconscious girl making Rathina roll her eyes and shake her head. Once she got up to the lounge she grinned and put the girl on the floor in front of the fire.
"Where did… this come from?" Hopie asked looking at the unconscious teenager as she checked her pulse.
"I found her in the snow." Rathina said
"Lirit" Tania laughed as the sleeping girl snores picked up once more after a moment of silence. Tania kicked Lirit's side to wake her up.
"What the hell!" Lirit exclaimed shooting up and looking around. "Tania!" she said grinning at the younger girl "I thought you ran off and eloped with… uhh Cedric right?"
"Edric" Tania said laughing softly as Lirit shook her head to help dry her hair.
"I was close" Lirit said scratching her head
"True" Tania said with a grin
"You know her Tania?" Rathina asked
"Yeah, we went to the same school, although she is a year ahead of me."Tania said
"Was a year, I flunked second semester last year." Lirit corrected
"Of course you did, you never showed up" Tania said, she had seen Lirit sneaking off campus several times.
"True" Lirit said nodding "Where am I?" she asked suddenly
"You're in the Faerie Realm" Tania said "How did you get here?" She asked
"I don't know…" Lirit said before promptly falling unconscious once more.
