Fairies

Below a mysterious circle of stones lies the underground city of evil fairies. The evil fairies have walked the earth long before humans and have constructed a series of tunnels that stretch to every corner of the world so that they can search for their lost magic wand. The magic wand is currently the only magic wand in existence and it brings good fortune and health to whoever holds it. The magic wand’s every fiber is composed of sorcery and made the evil fairies’ civilization flourish for centuries. Ever since it was stolen, the evil fairies have been in a constant search for it. 

The good fairies have the magic wand. Now, they have hidden their village so that the evil fairies can't steal it back from them. In truth, the wand had been stolen back and forth so many times that no one was sure who the wand belonged to first. When the first fairy discovered the wand, they became more powerful than any man or fairy and they gained many followers. But some of the fairies wanted the wand for themselves and they stole it from even the most remote and secure places on earth. Each side kept the wand very safe, but every few centuries someone would manage to take the wand. The fairies that had the wand for less time were eventually deemed the evil fairies, for the absence of magic had made them appear unhealthy and vile compared to the fairies that were deemed the good fairies, who kept the wand longer.  Humans have lived for centuries and they still remain ignorant to the signs of the hidden world beneath their feet, and to this day, the fairies still remain undetected. For now.

    Mirror Mirror Part II


    The world was spinning and my life was flashing before my eyes. I had no idea what was happening as I spun through a vortex of glass. I knew my reflection was different, but I had no idea what it was capable of.

    Mirror Mirror On the Wall - Part I

    One day I was admiring my reflection in my bedroom mirror when something strange happened. I grinned at my reflection to see if I had some spinach in my teeth from dinner, but my reflection did not smile back.
