After a while, Anwen calmed down and fell asleep. Odette was still awake, waiting for Narine to come back. She sat by the window, watching the snow fall slowly. The entire ground was now covered with snow.
Odette tightened her coat as the air got colder. When she first came to the palace, it was summer and now it was already winter.
After waiting long, the crystal finally shone brightly. Not long after that, Narine appeared.
“Narine!”
“Huh?” The fairy was surprised to see Odette who suddenly appeared in front of her.
“Y-yes.”
“I’ve been waiting for you. I need to talk to you,” said Odette, immediately catching the little fairy.
“Let’s talk somewhere else.”
“But, I’m hungry!”
Odette took the cake that Anwen always prepared for Narine and went outside so they didn’t disturb the young girl’s sleep.
She took the fairy to her study where no one was there. Narine looked at Odette in confusion. The queen’s serious face made her a bit uneasy.
