Here is another excerpt from Famlaer 3 – A Different World.
Stew asked, “What do you think of their story so far?”
“I find it quite extraordinary,” said Rio.
Rio met the faeries a couple of years ago while travelling the world. It was quite by accident. She was staying in a small village at the entrance to a valley in the mountains in some obscure part of the world. The village stood to one side of the valley entrance, and they told stories of how, beyond the entrance, far into the valley, there was something magical, something secret. The village folk also said that it was forbidden to enter the forest leading into the valley, warning that if you went in, you would never come out.
~A little later~
One day, while walking through the flowers, she saw something out of the corner of her eye. Her instincts told her to investigate further. She thought it might be a small wild animal or a large insect. She was passionately interested in anything unusual. When she arrived at the spot where she thought she had seen the movement, she saw nothing and decided it was a figment of her imagination. All that talk about faeries—oh yes, was it mentioned that the village believed in faeries?
A frightened little faery.
Then, she saw it on the ground, a tiny something wriggling around as if trying to get away or not be seen, but it was too late. Rio got down on her knees to get a closer look. She could not help but take a deep breath on her way down to the kneeling position, inhaling the magnificent scent of the flowers. When she got a little closer, she saw what looked like a person with wings, only six inches high. The little one was afraid of Rio and kept trying to get further away from her, but finally realized that Rio was trying to help her. Rio lowered her hands to where the tiny creature was and scooped it up gently, trying not to hurt it. It looked like a girl wearing leafy clothes, with brilliant red hair, a portion of which was pulled up to the top of her head, tied up, and the rest fell poker-straight to her shoulders. She had two wings that also looked like leaves, but one was sagging on her back. Rio thought it was the most beautiful creature she had ever seen.
