Merlin's Words Of Advice

Tara asked, "What are you idiots doing here?" We are killing everything on this planet and making it a new home for demons so get out of our way now devils. You are no match for us, said one of the demons and went to blast the two of them but nothing happened. Tara and Avan both looked at each other and smiled then they both raised their arms and made two of them turn to dust then did the same with two more. The last demon went to run but Avan froze it then ashed it. As soon as the last demon was gone all the bugs turned to dust also. Viridian came back down and the two she devils flew back to the palace. Tillia went to Sara and said it is okay now, you saved Fae Land and we won. I did, how did I do that? asked Sara. It was your inner strength and trust in me that transferred to my horn that made so much while magic that the demons appear for Avan and Tara to kill. It had to be done. I felt it. Alieta smiled and put a hand on Tillia's mane and saw it was wet with sweat. You were scared too, said Alieta. Well ya. Did you see the size of those five things! said Tillia. They all laughed and Sara now looked happy again. Alexa went to Tillia and said, I read about you at school about being the first and most magical unicorn of them all. No book knew how magical though but now I know. Oh that will vary Alexa depending on the situation but with Sara on me I feel it is limitless, said Tillia. Can we go home now Sara, I am really hungry, said Tillia. You two will go no where right now, said Alieta. You will eat here and also get cleaned up by my stable elves. They will make you smell nice and fresh again. Okay, said Tillia then they all moved to the front of the palace. Ivy go tell the fairies it is safe now. Okay, said Ivy and flew off. Pippa popped up and said, that was some battle. Where were you. I didn't see you anywhere? asked Alieta. Oh on top of the palace. Best seat in the house, said Pippa. So were you not scared at all. Those were flesh eating bugs, said Alieta. I know but Tillia was here, she won't let anyone get hurt that she likes. So everyone better start sucking up to her, said Pippa with a smile. So I gather you know her, said Alieta. Yep I do, long time ago though, she was gone for way too long, said Pippa. Glad she is back now though, Fae Land just got even more magical. Can I stay for supper? asked Pippa. Watching the battle really built up my appetite. Alieta smiled. Yes my silly friend stay and eat with us. Oh one more thing. You should figure out a way to help Sara, Ivy and Viridian feeding her. She won't eat hay or oats and eats lots of people food that can get costly, said Pippa. Alieta smiled. Yes Pippa I will figure something out. Okay good now where are those fairies, said Pippa I want to ask them what that new area they made in the forest is for.

Ivy came back with the fairies that got things ready for a nice meal. They created a spread for everyone and Yeanny was surprised at how magical they were. I have never seen a fairy before but always believed they existed, she said to Alieta. Yes I was the same, said Alieta. But here they are and always wanting to make people happy. Yes they seem to be very nice and kind of funny too, said Yeanny. I have a bunch of questions to ask you about those three that helped today also. Oh you should sit and talk with Alexa. She is the leader of the team. Really, well she does fit the profile. Smart, fearless, able to command and give orders fast. Very small though, said Yeanny. Yes but she is cute as a button, said Alieta. Yes, that she is, said Yeanny. Tillia came back from getting all cleaned up and was now ready to eat. Sara went and asked Tulip if she could make a bowl of food for Tillia. You bet Sara. Here you go and she created a nice supper for her. Sara brought it over to her and said you need this I can tell. Yes thank you Sara and she started to eat. Alieta called Sara over. Yes Alieta? she asked. You know she eats more than a person, said Alieta. How are you going to keep her fed? I will buy food for her and Ivy will help also, said Sara. Yes I know Ivy will help, said Alieta. I will help too. You two just saved Fae Land so in my mind that means the two of you are very important to the safety of this land. You two buy her the treats and stuff. I will make sure she has the main meals. That is the least I can do. Sara smiled. You love her too, don't you, said Sara. Oh yes dear, very much so. Now go and eat, you need it also, said Alieta. Okay, said Sara. After everyone was finished, Yeanny went and sat with Alexa, Viridian and Zatsuky that were talking. Alexa seemed very interested in her skills as a sorceress. Alieta walked over and sat down with them. Hi Alieta. I was just asking her about that sword and stuff, said Alexa. Well it looked pretty powerful, said Alieta. Yes and it has a pretty good long range too, said Alexa. Yes but nothing like these two weapons that they have, said Yeanny. That was quite the display of power Viridian put on. Viridian smiled. Yes but I still get dizzy when I do that, said Viridian. Zatsuky can do the spin thing too you know but she has been doing it longer than me and is used to it now. So what can you do as a sorceress, asked Alexa. Well lots of different things but it is a different type of magic called sorcery. I can create objects and make things appear and disappear. I can't make food though like the fairies can. I can make potions like a witch and teleport over long distances. I can change my appearance but just for a short while plus levitate. I can't heal others but can heal myself. Throw small fireballs and stuff like that, not as powerful as a strong wizard though. Oh like Merlin, said Alexa. He is way above me Alexa, said Yeanny. He can do just about anything. I have never met him but I have heard many tales about his great deeds. Yes he is a very good friend of ours, said Alexa. Ivy came over and said I heard you say you like Merlin too, said Ivy. He is old but has a very young heart. He is funny too and I like him a lot. So do you like the fairy food, it is the best don't you think? Yes it was very good, said Yeanny. Do you want to meet Merlin, he will come for me, you know, said Ivy. Well sure if you think he will come, said Yeanny. Yep he always does, said Ivy.

"Merlin come and see my new friend and eat also" yelled Ivy. Merlin appeared in a minute. Oh hi Ivy. Glad to see you again. So who you got now as a new friend? asked Merlin. Her, said Ivy and pointed at Yeanny. Oh the sorceress Yeanny. Such a nice girl, how are you dear? asked Merlin. Yeanny was shocked to see Merlin actually came. Um very good sir, thanks, said Yeanny. Oh don't call me sir that is so old fashion, said Merlin. So I see you have met some of my good friends here in Fae Land. Yes they are very nice here, I never knew there was a place with so many nice people in it and very magical, said Yeanny. Oh yes, they are quite the bunch, said Merlin. Now you mentioned eating, said Merlin to Ivy. Yep over there, still lots left or just ask Tulip to make you something, said Ivy. Good now don't go popping away Yeanny. I will be right back, then Merlin walked away. Wow, how did he know me and my name too? asked Yeanny. We don't know but he is Merlin, said Alieta. He seems to know everything. Merlin came back and sat down beside Ivy. I see you have Tillia here now also, said Merlin. I will have to talk to her too before I leave. She is very special you know. Yes we found that out even more today, said Alieta. So who is her companion this time? asked Merlin. Sara, said Ivy. We both love her and she lives with us and has her own bedroom in our backyard. Merlin laughed. You still make me laugh Ivy. So she has a shelter then, said Merlin. Yep but a very nice one the fairies made for her, said Ivy. Okay, bedroom it is then, said Merlin. So Sara this time that is very different for her to pick a forest sprite. She didn't pick her God sent her to Sara from the sky. They can run very fast together, said Ivy. I see, so a gift from the heavens to each of them. Probably the last time Tillia has to go with out a companion I would think, said Merlin. She deserves it, she had a lot of bad luck with past companions. Yes Zan told us a story about her when they became friends a long time ago. It was very moving, said Alieta. Yes it was but all seems good now. You just have to trust her, she can be very powerful especially with such a strong and bright girl like Sara, said Merlin. Yes she showed us that today. We were attacked by five invisible demons today and they had meat eating locust in the millions. Tara and Avan were able to hold off the bug attack with Viridian, Zatsuky and Yeanny's help but some how Tillia new that she could help and even though I told her no, not to go with Sara, she just said trust me then went anyways very fast. She was able to make the demons visible so Tara and Avan could kill them. When they got back Sara was very scared still but later I found out Tillia was scared too but had to go and save everyone. Yes that sounds like her, said Merlin. She can feel things like no one else. If she felt that any of her friends would die if she didn't do anything then she will go and do what had to be done. Now that depends on the companion though also. She can do lots more too but mostly likes to heal, run and eat. Yes sure sure does like to eat, said Alieta. Merlin smiled. Well this is a land of plenty so I am sure she will well taken care of, said Merlin. Well that was wonderful food as usual, said Merlin. Now I must chat with Tillia and Sara for a bit then get back home. You take care Yeanny and that friend of yours, we will chat later. Thanks for calling me Ivy. Always a pleasure coming to see you. Okay Merlin, you are still my favorite wizard, said Ivy. Oh you know other wizards now? asked Merlin. Nope, that is why you are my favorite, said Ivy. Merlin started to laugh again then walked over to Tillia and Sara.

Merlin went over to where Sara and Tillia were hanging out and Tillia was about to start eating. Hello you two, I heard you both had some action today, said Merlin. Oh hi Merlin, I thought I could feel you here, said Tillia. Yes dear, Ivy called me to meet Yeanny and have some supper. Such a nice girl, said Merlin. So I heard you two saved a lot of lives today which is very good, but remember Sara is not a warrior like all those dumb kings were. Ya I know, said Tillia. But we had no choice and she trusted me so that was good, said Tillia. Yes but also remember Alieta is the queen of Fae Land and she loves everyone here and especially Sara and Ivy so listen to her and don't scare her like you did today, said Merlin. This is her family and you are part of it also. Now when you look around you here on the grounds you see many happy faces and that is mostly because of Alieta. She has her own very strong magic. Alieta has magic? asked Sara. Yes, the magic of love, said Merlin. Okay Merlin I understand, family is very important, said Tillia. I never had one before but I can feel it now all around me. Sara and Ivy are my closest family though, said Tillia. Yes and they will love you more than anyone here, so be patient with them. This is a big adjustment for forest sprites. Normally they don't have any use for horses but you are a unicorn and even if you were not special like you are, they both would consider you special anyways, said Merlin. Okay I will remember, said Tillia. Okay good now I have to get back home so call if either of you need me. Then Merlin vanished. Very nice guy Merlin is, said Sara. Yep, a bit like a father figure but he is cool, said Tillia. So what do we do now, asked Tillia. Well after you finish eating and the fairies clean everything up then lets go talk to Alexa and Zatsuky some. You already met Viridian. Okay, said Tillia. Can we get Ginger to come over too. She likes to pat me all the time and it feels good. Plus she has the most beautiful eyes. Sara smiled then said Okay.

Conclusion

Sara and Tillia went over to Alexa and Zatsuky after the fairies got things all cleaned up and both Tillia and the two heroes had lots of questions that they both had to ask. Ginger was there too and didn't need to be asked to come over. She just sat down behind Tillia and patted her with a big smile on her face. Some of the fairies came over too because they wanted to talk to Tillia also. Viridian said she was going home to change and rest some. Alieta looked around and saw that all seemed back to normal, at least the new normal now and the the three girls came back from town and saw everyone around. Oh sorry girls you missed supper. Oh that is okay we ate downtown. Alieta smiled and knew they were well taken care of because of Ginger also. Alieta made arrangements with an elf to make sure Tillia had food in the morning. Alieta talked to Yeanny and told her she could stay the night in the palace if she wanted. Yeanny said she could teleport home with her horse but a night in a palace would be a nice change. "So where do you live"? asked Alieta. Just about fifty miles south of Tazia if you know where that is, said Yeanny. Oh yes I do, said Alieta. Zatsuky and Carmen are from there. Really, small world isn't it, said Yeanny. I will have to leave first thing in the morning though, I have someone there that will be kinda waiting for me. In a bit it started to get dark and Alexa, Viridian and Zatsuky headed home and everyone else got ready to go in the palace. Sara, Ivy and Tillia went to Alieta and thanked her for helping to feed Tillia then headed off home too. Ivy said race you two home but Sara said nope. We are taking it easy right now, don't want to make Tillia hungry again. Okay, said Ivy and they all headed home but still pretty fast. Ginger sat with Alieta for a bit on the steps and they talked about Tillia and Sara some. Then they both went into the palace.

Tillia went to the backyard with Sara and Ivy then laid down. Now have a good sleep Tillia, they said to her. You won't need to go over to Ktara's place in the morning to eat. Alieta promised to help feed you too remember, said Sara. Yes I know, very nice queen she is, said Tillia. Yes she is said Sara then went in the house to go to bed. Tillia was fast asleep when Gabriel and Cindy appeared. My she is lovely, said Gabriel quietly. Thanks for telling me about her, I always wanted to see Tillia but angels are not allowed in limbo. Gabriel touched her side then said okay lets go see Alieta before she goes to bed. They found her just getting ready to leave the den. Hi Alieta, can you wait a minute before going to bed. We won't keep you long, said Gabriel. Okay but I thought you were busy in heaven, said Alieta. Yes I am but Cindy had to tell me about Tillia. She knew I would like to see her. She was a sleep when we got there. She is so beautiful and I touched her and saw that pure white soul of hers. Now I know you will take very good care of those three so I am not going to get into any of that with you but I will say this. You are one lucky sprite dear and never forget it. Now before we leave you alone I just want to tell you something. Okay what is it? asked Alieta. Remember a while back I said there will be another girl like Ivy coming, said Gabriel. Yes I do recall that but how is that possible, Ivy is one of a kind, said Alieta. Yes she is and I said like Ivy, not the same. Ivy spreads love all over Fae Land but this new unique person that you will meet tomorrow will do the same and even more. That is all I am going to tell you so I don't ruin the surprise. Cindy smiled then they both vanished. Hm short and sweet this time, that was different but why does she always give me something to think about just before bed time, thought Alieta. Must be an angel thing. Alieta smiled then headed off to her bedroom.
