I swatted at a mosquito who dared trying to land on my arm. There weren't many of the perky buggers at the lot we were staying at, thankfully, but boy did the ones that were there like to target me! I had already put on bug spray, but I was going to have to add a bit more once Allium's story was over. It was the Saturday after Amaranth's week of detention. In order to help de-stress him and make up for the playing time we had lost, Blaze had suggested we all go camping while the weather was still nice. That was how my five friends, Eden, Blaze, and I ended up at a little camping ground further away from all the houses and closer to the small Berrybrook farms. We hadn't been at the lot for long before Allium announced that he had to tell the story about where we were. Apparently, the area used to be a haven for fairies. I was wondering what the several incredibly small houses on thick poles were, and that they were fairy houses answered that. According to Allium, there was one fairy that was bigger than the others. He was the king. His wings were so brilliant and colorful that a jealous human decided to rip them all out.
"The fairy king and all of his followers used their strength to fight off the human," Allium continued, "But the human was a tricky one. He hid two of the king's feathers in places the fairies could not find. With even just one feathery wing missing, this left the leader of the sprites unable to fly. He fell into a deep sleep to hide his shame. The others took his body away from here and hid it so no harm could befall him again. Then they kept on searching for the lost feathers. The human hadn't been able to travel much before they stopped him. He couldn't have hidden the last two parts of the king's wings very far. However, nothing was ever recovered. The fairies gave up hope and decided to hide themselves away from humans in order to prevent their king's fate from happening again."
Allium took a dramatic breath.
"Yet, rumor and legend insist that the fairies are still watching. It is said that the fairies will reward even humans who find the feathers with piles of gold- enough hold to make them rich for their entire lifetime."

Allium's story was met with decent approval. Conversation quickly turned to what everyone would do if they had a whole bunch of money to do with whatever they wanted. Amaranth joked about how he would use the money to fund his coal-to-diamond machine, and that got him and Blaze bickering lightheartedly. The others and I began to move about. I stuck by Eden for a second until I noticed Sunflower going around examining all the fairy houses.
"I wonder what it would be like to be that small." I said as I peeked into the little open front door in the wooden carved building.
"I had a dream I was a fairy once. My family and I had come camping here actually, and when I 'woke up' after we all went to sleep I was super tiny and all that. I had so much fun flying around and going into all the fairy houses that I cried when I woke up to find out it wasn't real."
"Really?" I laughed a little.
"I was four." Sunflower replied with a small laugh of her own and a shrug.

I bent over further to peer deeper into the house.
"There's rooms and furniture in here and everything. It's not just an empty box. That's amazing!" I remarked in awe.
"You know, a lot of people believe the fairy legend to be true." Sunflower revealed.
"They do?"
"Yeah. Supposedly, this area was sculpted around the fairy houses. They weren't something added in for decoration. They were already here- tiny rooms and furniture and all. There are pictures in the museum as proof!" she explained.
"I had no idea. Do you think there really are hidden feathers around then? Do you really think there's a reward of gold for whoever finds them?" I questioned.
"I think it's nice to have the hope that there could be. Life would be boring otherwise without these little, magical myths to believe in."
I nodded, then I paused in thought.
"Do you believe in ghosts?" I asked my friend next.
"Ghosts?"
I nodded again.
"You're talking about Snowbell, aren't you?" Sunflower grinned knowingly, "I remember Sap saying you had a weird experience at that last sleepover. I don't know if I full out believe in ghosts, but I do know enough creepy stuff has happened at those sleepovers to take away my right to say that I don't think there could be any spirits about."
