Chapter 1

Rose – The Summer Fairy

Dear fellow fairies and friendly humans,

I am Rose, of the Summer Glen, an idyllic rolling green valley filled with red, gold, orange, and purple flowers, near a sparkling green-blue lake inhabited by mermaids, dragonfish, and other creatures of the fey. The Summer Glen is in the countryside of the powerful and warm Summer Kingdom, who rules the land of the fairies known as Fairy Land, or Feyland, as we of the fey call it.

The creatures of the fey are uncomplicated, yet magical, enchanted like the history of our land with a magic that grows from the land, sky, lakes, mountains, and air itself - melding ancient history, lore, and dreams together. There are two suns, two moons in Feyland, and the sky is the color of lavender blues with cream. The night appears as velvet, generously dotted with twinkling diamond stars.

Music rustles from the grass of the land through the wind that carries a tune through the silver-gold leaves of the trees in the Feyland Forest. And the sweet smell of floral perfume fragrances the land with each petal releasing its essence into the fey bouquet.

I have grown up in Feyland, as did my brother Rodney, who is but three years older and already a well-known young knight in the Summer Palace at age fifteen. In the fields behind our cottage, Rodney and I had playfully fought with each other with wooden swords forged by our mother. He set off to knight training at age twelve, and had returned home three years later to further that training at the Summer Palace. Now at age twelve (almost thirteen in SIGHTLESS or human years), I wonder what my fate would be. Would I follow in Rodney’s footsteps and become one of the esteem Summer Knights of the land or something else?

It is from a chance meeting with our sovereignty, the Summer Queen, who with her flaming red hair and alabaster skin, willowy tall frame encasing a power so great; one feels an awe in her presence; that I have been given word of my apprenticeship at last. Rodney, and I certainly was in awe when we approached her throne, when she requested my presence at the royal Summer Palace following my great victory over at Clover Fields. Quite an honor, I was prepared to hear what Her Majesty would say regarding my apprenticeship.

What she said was not what I had in mind, but another, which to my disappointment began the following day.

My consolation in her choice of apprenticeship for me, as a Summer Harvest Fairy, was that at least I would be apprenticing with my two childhood friends August, a dark-haired fairy whose practicality made her wiser beyond her years, and Melony, a light-haired fairy whose sense of fun and adventure, made her the perfect companion for pulling pranks on the other fey of the Summer Glen where we spent our endless childhood days exploring the land, making friends with the various smaller Summer creatures
