“Don’t drink too much.”
The familiar voice rings through his head as he stands there on the balcony, looking out over the moonlit, empty courtyard. Nina, the distorted from the well, had told him that during her confession. He had always thought it was just a side quip, giv...

It is the next day.
Veli doesn’t seem to have any magic yet, at least according to him when Fresh had asked him about his abilities. Much like with humans, some fairies are born with an innate natural talent for spell-casting from the day of their genesis.

Fresh comes back from the drink shelf, setting a bottle of hot coughee down next to Veli for him to warm himself up against and to dry off a little, before they open. Basil and Shamrock are standing on the other end of the counter, decorating a slime-toy together with assorted flowers and berries...

Tick. Tick. Tick.
Night has long since fallen. The constant sound of ticking strikes out around the man, sitting alone hunched over his dust-coated desk, working under dying lantern light. The many voices of the clocks filling the room, as ...

Fresh stands out on the balcony of their home, peering through the small telescope that they have sitting out here, as she looks around at the night-sky. She had just come back from the city hall half an hour ago. Shamrock and Jubilee had already gone to bed and Basil is downstairs, taking a hot ...

As he opens his eyes, laying on top of the damp grass, Canta notices that he can’t feel his legs. He listens to the wet squelching sound coming from down below at his waist. His mind, still drunk, already assumes that it knows what’s going on as he lifts his head to tell Alleluia to settle do...

It is dark outside as Fresh walks through the city, which is still held alight by the few large, shining crystals that float over it, washing it over with a calm pastel light which seems more than unusual for this dark hour. Glass jangles in her bag; items that she needs for her scheme to w...

Fresh and Shamrock sit across from each other, each on either side of the table. The two of them stare with narrowed, challenging stares, as their contest continues.

Fresh stands behind the counter, next to Jubilee and bags some items up for a customer.

It is late at night. Basil is still fast asleep, apparently having fallen into a fever after all, much to Fresh’s worry. Jubilee has gone to bed as well.
“Tools…” mutters Fresh to herself, as she tinkers with some iron bars upstairs behind the counter. It is past their cl...

Fresh stands with crossed arms outside of the door, watching as the load of glass weapons is loaded up onto a cart. She doesn’t see many of them up here on the mountain, carts, let alone any of the anqas who apparently aren’t fond of heights, which she thinks is funny for birds. But then agai...

City life isn’t so bad, really thinks Canta, as he stares at the upside down building. Sure, there are a lot of people here, far more than he is used to and he’s a bit of a celebrity too, that’s kind of fun on the first day but then it does get annoying immediately after that. On the other ...

“You can do it!” says Fresh. All of the tiredness is washed away from her pale face, as she clenches her fists in excitement. Basil sits behind her, sideways on a chair and is leaned back against the wall. The priestess holds a cold bottle of tea against her damp forehead. She apparently does...

It is early in the morning, a few hours before daybreak. Fresh and Basil, both tired and a little delirious, are ecstatic about their results and cling to each other in a sweaty hug as they spin around in a circle, in an odd half-dance, half-wild-jubilation, down in the basement. This might perha...

A cold wind blows past her head, billowing the strands of her freshly washed hair out to the sides. As it moves, the cold fingers of the breeze touching her scalp, Fresh realizes how long her hair has grown since the start of her ‘new life’. All of the long, golden strands are already reachin...
