‘GEOGRAPHY AND FAIRYTALE SECTION’ spelled at the top of the shelf and as Gerey scanned from book to book, he remembered a few he'd read at school, ‘Knowing Wabrook's Water Brooks and Bodies’ by Whitaker Flarogue, ‘Sunset at Ingfalls’ by Simponie Gugh, ‘The best habitat for all - Ingfalls - Book One’ by Cuulambs Nicktra, but they were not what he searched for. He narrowed his eyes in concentration as he skimmed tens of book covers before he came across the right material to satisfy his interest, ‘Pixies, Elves, Brownies, Fairies - What Every Kid Needs to Know’ with no author mentioned as the writer. He pulled the book out from among the others with caution and took it to the seat he'd secured

“Or at least, it’s similar to one of his quotes.” She nodded. “Does all of Black Crimson’s art illustrate some fairy tale or another?” I sent her a curious glance. Motioning behind her, she explained. “Well, that one was obviously Rapunzel. And the one before was the Big Bad Wolf, right?” “Holy shit,” I cried, gaping at her before shaking my head and returning my attention to the road. “I think you’re right. I remember another one having some guy leaning over a sleeping woman and one had a mermaid on it, which must be—”

Her mom had known all along that she was pregnant with a girl, and she decorated a dream room. While pregnant her mom had hand painted the most beautiful fairytale mural on one wall in the bedroom. It was the one thing that Emily could not change or cover even once she got older. The mural had a large castle with mountains in the background. Around the castle were deep forests filled with magical creatures faries, witches, unicorns, and elves. There was a lake with a waterfall that had mermaids and water sprites playing, but Emily’s favorite part was the castle in the center. On the front steps stood a beautiful majestic white wolf.

30 - Always Anna “And then the fairy went—shoo shoo—killing the monster!” Alice animatedly said, her arms waving and bunching into fists as she pretended to punch the imaginary monster. Caleb, who was sitting on the tiny pink chair for her tea party, nodded obediently, his brows furrowed as if he was truly engrossed in her made-up story. She poured him imaginary tea from her pink and blue plastic kettle, and he picked up the cup with pinkie out, asking her, “Did the princess have magical powers?”

Soft whispers of appreciation and gratitude filled the air. Sensing their drowsiness, I concluded the story with a gentle, "And so, Princess Lily and her friends lived happily ever after, creating a kingdom filled with love and friendship." One by one, the children drifted into a peaceful slumber, their dreams intertwined with the enchanting tale. Lily, now nestled in the warmth of her blanket, clutched her teddy bear with a serene expression. I remained seated amidst the slumbering children, grateful for the bond forged through the simple act of storytelling and the comfort of blankets stitched with care. The blankets, like the fairy tale, became threads of warmth connecting hearts in a kin

"When tears appear in your eye, seeing this, the sky also cry. When you stop, crying and close your eyes, fairies will come and take you to the sky. They will swing you in the star, and will travel you to the moon so far. So close your eyes completely... Not less, and then sleep happily, oh my dear princess..." "When tears appear in your eye, seeing this, the sky also cry. When you stop, crying and close your eyes, fairies will come and take you to the sky. They will swing you in the star,

Karin pulled me down to sit on her other side. We ended up pressed together on the narrow mattress. The four of us. Tangled and cramped and somehow perfect. Karson started the story. Something about a brave wolf prince who made mistakes but learned to be better. I added details about a princess who found her strength in the darkest times. The children interjected with magical powers and talking animals and villains who always got defeated. Somewhere in the middle of the tale, their eyes grew heavy. Their small bodies relaxed against ours, surrendering to sleep with the easy trust of children who felt safe.

Silly high school stuff from a girl who claimed not to believe in fairytales but still expected her life to turn out like one. Even after she’d been abducted, such fantasies persisted. After all, most fairytales had a dark period before the happily ever after. Cinderella had to flee the ball, Snow White ate the poisoned apple, but the Prince always showed up at the end to rescue the damsels in distress. She spent many hours curled up on the cold floor, imagining Hank busting down the door, sweeping her into his arms, and carrying her out of this hellhole.

“What stories?” “Well, um, you told…Geneva told them to me. The first tale was about a fairy that fell in love with a human. However, this human craved jewels and treasure and did not care about this fragile fairy. So, he persuaded the fairy to lead him to all the fairies’ riches. He stole it and never looked back, while the fairy, in her own heartbreak and guilt, lay down upon a white lily…closed her eyes and never opened them again.” “That’s awful,” said Grace.
