Falara took me to her cottage in the enchanted forest, offering me a chair. The inside of her home was warm and inviting, filled with the scent of various herbs and flowers. She prepared a pot of tea, pouring it into cups as she gathered her thoughts. Elara and I sat patiently, waiting for Falara to begin.
"Many centuries ago, before this forest was even enchanted, I was a simple fae living among my kind," she began, her voice soft but steady. "We were a joyful community, celebrating life and embracing all that nature had to offer."
A distant look filled her eyes as she recalled those times. "I loved exploring the woods, discovering its secrets, and learning about the different plants and creatures that called it home. My gift of creation was merely a talent back then, something I used to bring beauty to our world."
