Novell was a princess of the poppy fairies. Her father was an Elf and her mother was a poppy fairy. They had met under strenuous  circumstances but none the less fell head over heals in love with one another. Her father, Hariam was not your typical Elvin. He was a massively tall man with ears that reached the sky. He was known as an elder elf, with wisdom and power. Everyone looked to him for guidance and solace. Her mother wasn't your typical fairy either. She was a poppy fairy, raised in the fields of the poppy flowers in the enchanted forest of Hollum. Her family was a special kind of fairy. They were the normal size of humans and were the ones who took care of the smaller fairies. They grew the magical poppies that harnessed their powers and helped them grow. They met during a war between the Elven's and Fairies.  It was love at first sight! They were able to bring peace between their communities. Soon they got married and had Novell. She was their pride and joy, and the future of Hollum. One day while Novell was strolling through the poppy fields, a beam of light blinded her and struck the ground with force. She had never seen a beam like this before! She ran to the end of the beam and saw a huge crater! She came upon and man, laying in the fields. She had never seen this type of man before. He wasn't elven, and he wasn't a fairy. His ears were strange to her, she had never seen such muscles on a man before. There lay a hammer next to his bruised and battered body. He was unconscious and had obviously been in some kind of battle. She stared at him curiously, cautiously. She knelt down and gently moved his hair out of his face. It reveled his rugged good looks and soft skin. His eyes shut tightly, his face peaceful but beaten. He was barely breathing, and this worried her.

Novell ran to her trusted friends to help her sneak him into the village and to the healers tent. Under the cover of a wagon full of freshly cut poppies, this man laid there. With none the wiser. As Novell, rushed inside to talk to the healer, her fairy friends kept a close eye on the wagon, which began to stir and moan. Jasmina, her best friend, ran to tell Novell the problem.

Jasmina: Novell, the umm wagon is moving & making sounds! You must hurry!

Novell: Can you help or not Dargon?

Dargon: I am a healer of all things, bring the strange human in. Do it quickly and quietly.

Novell: Thank you kind sir! Jasmina, tell the others to bring him in.

The other poppy fairies pushed the wagon into the tent of the healer, Dargon, and took their leave as Novell swore them to secrecy. Dragon waved his hands and the poppies floated above the wagon and gently placed on the adjoining table. Dragon looked at this man, saw his bruises and began searching his body for more injuries. He began to move and moan, and began to twitch his eyes. They could see his body twitch and his hands clench as lighting began to flow around him. Dargon quickly gathered the two women and pushed them back behind him. Just then a bolt of lighting struck down from the heavens, into the tent and straight into the half dead man in the table, causing him to sit up and scream as the electricity surged through his body.

His eyes glowed with the brightness of a thousands suns, his screams echoed through the tent and village frightening everyone near and far. Dargon began to conjure up a protective spell as a precaution.

After the lighting subsided, The man fell back upon the table trying the catch his breath. He opened his eyes and looked around. He jumped off the table and turned to see the fairies staring at him in confusion. He stood there for a moment trying to focus and take in his surroundings when Dargon spoke.

Dargon: Who are you sir?

Thor: I am Thor, Prince of Asgard. Who are you?

Dargon: I am Dargon, the healer and elder Elven of this village.

Thor: Where am I?

Dargon: In the village of Hollum. We are a peaceful people. Have you come to hurt us?

Thor: No, I don't know how I got here. Which realm are we in?

Dargon: Realm?

Thor: Yes! Which of the nine realms are we in at this moment?

Dargon: I don't understand sir.

Thor: PLANET! What planet?

Dargon: We are on the planet O'cirus. ( O-sigh-rus) Have been for many millennia. Where are you from sir? We have never seen your kind before.

Thor: O'cirus? I have never heard of this place! I am from Asgard! Part of  the nine realms. I have never seen or heard of the planet O'cirus!  Are you on the outreach of space?

Dargon looked at Thor confused and bewildered. Thor suddenly gif dizzy and began to wobble around. This prompted Novell to rush to his side and grab him by his arm and sat hidden on the wooden bench. Thor looked at Novell with smiling eyes and a kind yet sweet smirk in his face.

Thor: Thank you m'lady. I don't know why I am so dizzy.

Novell: You have been threw a lot. We assumed a battle of some sort. You are bruised all over your body. You were near death when I found you.

Thor: You found me? Where was I? How did you find me?

Novell: I saw a beam of light strike down from the heavens and created a large crater in my poppy fields! I ran to see what it was and as soon as the dust cleared, there you were laying there unconscious and barely breathing. So I brought you here!  Dargon can heal you. He is the best healer I know. I am Novell, and behind Dargon is Jasmina, my best friend.

Thor: My apologies! I am Thor of Asgard of the nine realms. Son of Odin and Frigga, brother to Loki.

Novell: It's wonderful to meet you.

Thor: I must be getting back to the place you found me. My hammer is there and I haven't the strength to summon it to me. I must pick it up.

Novell: You mean this?

Novell pointed to Mjolinr, resting in a table full of Knick knacks and potions. Thor couldn't believe his eyes.

Thor: How did you lift my hammer? Only the pure of heart  and the worthy can lift it.

Novell: Pure of heart? Worthy? Hmm well we all can lift it. It's lighter than air! So I don't understand what the big deal is. Do you want it? I can hand it to you.....

Thor: NO! It's fine where it sits... I need to lay down, my head is spinning.

Novell: Oh of course, I am so sorry. Please rest yourself and Dargon will heal you.

Thor laid back in the bench and quickly fell back to sleep. With a wave of his hand, Dargon lifted Thor and placed him on a fluffy bed. Thor fell into a deep sleep. Novell and Jasmina, watched him as he laid peacefully as Dargon began to heal him.
