1. Quite suddenly Frank the Dragon appears.

"I have thought long and hard
and I have no help to offer.
The fairy realm
is where fairies are.
By time
You will have to build anew.
Not with nails, nor stone, nor glue."

The fairies listen

Frank continues:
"Nurish a fairy seedling
Give her love
Let her grow
She will become your fairy tree
Your home
Forever yours to hold."

Baby Sprout

Baby Sprout will grow into a mighty fairy tree, but remain a seedling at heart.

A rare sighting

Some time has passed. I will introduce the characters in the following pictures.

Ariel the Dragon Rider

While not so different from the flower fairies, she seems to have a special relationship with Frank the Dragon.

Nanni deep in thought

Nannis age is uncertain, but I am guessing very old. I see her more as a spirit of nature than a fairy, which explains why Alvin calls to her when there is need for heavy magic.

Alvin and Pinky

Alvin has been a central figure in my stories from the Fairy Forest. He is a 200 year old goblin, in his twenties. He has travelled the world, but now spends most of his time in his forest cottage (not in the picture) reading his great uncle Marvins books on magic. (Doll; Ignatz by Daisy Dayes, 7cm).

Pinky is a young flower fairy. (Doll; nanofairy by Bluefairydoll, 5cm).
