The Middle of the Bridge
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 115857

She didn't plan on being gone for long, but even if she still wasn't back by morning, her parents wouldn't worry. They knew she could take care of herself, and would be back before long. It was dusk, and Evanora stood in the middle of a bridge across the river that formed the border between the kingdoms. She removed the fairies from their jars, reached into their minds, and pulled them out of their slumber. They woke up very slowly, spending several minutes just stirring and occasionally fluttering their eyelids. Night continued to gather, and with a twitch of her fingers Evanora conjured up a floating orb of soft light to illuminate where they stood on the bridge. Eventually the fairies seemed to notice that she was there, and when they managed to make eye contact, she deemed it time to say, "Hello, Frita and Arion. My name is Evanora. You were given to me as a gift by my uncle, Dalamar. You have been asleep for a long time, about two years. I sensed that you were on a journey to find the kingdoms of Allaria and Aqualaria. We now stand at the border between them." The two of them blinked, already shaken by the old soul in this little girl, and trying to process what she had told them. They vaguely recalled their quest, but even Frita could not remember why they had set out on it. The long sleep had blurred the already fuzzy memories of her humanity. Presently she remembered that her wing was torn beyond hope of use, but as soon as the thought entered her head, the little girl before them said, "Let me fix that," and with the barest twitch of her hand, Frita felt the wound close. She beat her wings hesitantly, and found that they worked. "Forgive us," said Arion, "we don't know what to say." "Thank you for bringing us here," managed Frita. "And for healing me." "You're welcome. I will not abandon you here in the wilderness, however. Where would you like to go? Where is your quest taking you, specifically?" Frita held off answering as long as she could, but soon had to say, "I... I wanted to come here, because we remember that we once lived in these places, and I felt it was important that we return, but... I cannot remember why..." "I will help you try to remember," said Evanora. "Where would you like to go first? Allaria or Aqualaria?"
