Teague had made his way up the hills to the tallest mountain which was covered in darkness. He walked up, his steps becoming slower and more hesitant with each step. He looked down over the edge and pictured him falling off. Would that end this eternal night he'd plunged the Fae into? Would this make Jared happy? He shook the dark thoughts out of his head and continued walking. The darkness made it hard to see, but he didn't mind. He'd always liked it when it was dark. He couldn't see the world for the cruel place it truly was.

"Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know..." Teague looked at his one gloved hand and gave a small laugh. "Well now they know!" He took off his glove and let it float away. He smiled smugly and held out his hand, but couldn't channel his magic.

"Let it go. Let it go." Teague mumbled quietly. The second the words left his lips, lovely darkness flew from his fingertips, turning the plants a raven black with little star speckles.

He pulled the clouds down, as if using an invisible rope, and they turned dark. He molded them with ease into the vague shape of a person.

"Better than snowmen." He chuckled.

He stepped on the ground and stared in awe as the rocks melted onto one another, becoming a smooth black metallic material that spread up and around. The material moved about until a small gothic castle appeared. Teague stepped in with pride and marveled at what the magic had done. He passed under the glass chandelier to the balcony. Looking down at his former kingdom, shrouded in darkness, Teague laughed. He allowed the dark thoughts to fill his mind, they'd never really bothered him anyways.

"You're perfect Fae is gone." He grinned.

"Teague?" Jared called out into the darkness. "It's me, Jared!" He shouted.

No reply.

"You're brother who didn't mean to make you darken the day!"

Again, Jared was greeted with silence.

"I'm sorry!" If Jared knew anything about Teague, it was that he loved getting apologies more that anything. "It's all my fault!"

In the distance, he and his horse heard a twig break. The white steed thrust Jared off, throwing him into a cold river, and ran away.

"No no no! Wait!" Jared looked around, barely able to see in the darkness. He shivered and slowly stood up, his suit soaking. "Great."

He walked down past the river and cursed Teague under his breath. "Darkness, of course! He couldn't have given the Fae a beautiful sunny day? He couldn't have filled our lives with lovely, bright-" Jared saw a lit up cabin just down the path. "Light!" He exclaimed.

Jared ran desperately towards the source of light and read the sign aloud. "Nixie Traders..."

He entered to see a sweet Nixie at the desk. He waved at Jared. "Sale! All sunglasses and sunscreen 10% off!"

Jared smiled. "That's nice...for now, how about warm clothes?" He gestured towards his suit which was causing him to shiver.

Nix looked down. "Oh. That would be over there." He pointed to a nearly empty corner with a flashlight and one dark and light blue suit. Jared walked over to grab it but the door swung open to reveal a girl in a light brown overcoat. She pulled back her hood to reveal a head of shiny brown hair and big Brown eyes. She approached Jared and stood in front of him.

"Flashlight."

"Huh?"

"Behind you."

Jared blushed and stepped aside, the girl immediately grabbing the flashlight and a bag of carrots. She tossed it on the counter.

"That'll be 40." Nix smiles.

"40?! 10 is all I got." The girl pouts.

"Look, Mina. I'd love to help you out, but rules are rules." Nix sighed.

"Did you come from the North Mountain?" Jared chimed in.

"Yeah. What about it?" She spat.

"Did it seem...magical?"

She rolled her eyes. "Yeah. One minute I'm working on selling my solar devices, the next I can't see two feet in front of me." She pushed him to the side. "Now excuse me while I deal with this pathetic excuse for a Nixie."

Nix stood up, revealing muscles and broad shoulders that were previously unknown. "What did you call me?"

"I-"

Nix picked up Mina and threw her out, his gills flaring. She lay on the ground and rubbed her head. Soon her blonde horse nuzzled his head against her.

"No, Brody, I didn't get your carrots."

Her horse, Brody, looked down and sighed. Mina went and dragged their carriage behind the Nixie cabin and lay down in it.

Meanwhile, Jared had managed to calm Nix down.

"Sorry about that. Just the shoes and the suit?" Nix smoothed his shirt.

"Hm." Jared picked up the flashlight and carrots, tossing them on the counter. "These too."

"May I ask why?"

"I'm going to the North Mountain. I'm going to stop this eternal night."
