The newcomer, an earth fairy called Nadia, had been traveling alone for some time. She hailed from a very small fairy community many leagues away, which had suffered heavy losses from predators and terrible storms, until so few were left that they all departed from the area. Nadia had traveled with her closest friends until they had been killed by humans some years before. Nadia had tried not to hate all of humanity for the deeds of a few, but some part of her did. She didn't often take refuge in human dwellings, but it was beginning to rain and lo and behold, a tower appeared. It was in the woods not too far from the village she'd just passed over. She was very tired, and quite a sight - her short brown hair tangled beyond belief, her pale red skin marred with dirt and dust. So she slipped in through the window of the tower to find a place to rest and recuperate. She evaded the attention of the man who lived here and found a door to what appeared to be a storage area. Slipping underneath was a cinch, and she found a mirror nearby, and spent several minutes cleaning herself off and fixing her hair. When she was finished, she looked around the room, and suddenly a faint glow came to her attention from behind several boxes and vials in the back of the room. She pushed past the obstructing objects, and found herself face to face with two of her kin. A female rainbow fairy and a male sun fairy, their hair down to the bottoms of the jars in which they hung suspended, apparently deeply asleep. Nadia covered her mouth in horror as she beheld them, and swallowed, trying to control her anger.
