Fairy tail

The beginning of the story

3
*the silence of the room being broken by the soft whimpers of a small child, hiding under a desk, their tears running down to their finger tips as they wip them away, as they sit there the sound of glass breaking, crackling as it slowly grows louder, before-, as the child inhaled sharply, they look around before trying to get up, bonking their head on the desk above them "owch!" As they stand and slowly walk out of the room, wondering through the rooms of the building*

6 or so months later....

The child slowly wakes up in their big bed, rising to their feet, hopping with a smile, as they walk to the kitchen to put a pot on the stove with water inside, as they leave their cabin near the woods, putting on a jacket before leaving

The outsides are beautiful, the trees swinging in unison, as the breeze swings the world like a baby at 6, the smell of flowers run through the child's nose as they pick some flowers, putting them into a little basket, then they pick a few veggies, and an apple, as they walk back to the cabin

They walk in and take off the jacket, as the pot grows a loud whistle, as they take a knife and chop some of the vegetables, slicing the apple into 1/6's, as they pour the hot water into a cup adding a few herbs that they made from crushing a few flowers and other things, as they take the cup and plate of food and head to the table as they consume them both with a happy and grateful smile "thank you great titania for the meal!" As they consume the meal in its entirety, afterwards washing the plate and dishes in the sink, their arms nearly not reaching the nob to turn it off.

After the dishes they step outside again, this time they head towards a the forest, making sure to avoid any strangers wondering through, they reach a river as they sit, dangling their legs into it, looking longingly into its flowing streams. "It flows like time, never stopping, never beginning, it's there yet no one notices, controllable in nature" as they put their hand in the water and it forms a ball around their hand as they raise it out "yet never in spirit.." as the child sighs looking towards the sky with their hand "I wanna explore the sta-" being cut off by the water breaking its tension and falling on the child, completely soaking them, they cough before catching sight of a gatherer, and they quickly catch to their feet and walk back to their cabin.

They close the door slowly with a quiet slam, as they get a change of clothes hanging up the old ones, as they walk over to bed, "tomorrows work is todays dreams, sweet dreams evercrest" as the child falls into the wonderful land of dream land, to dance in his time
