Guen Tells Alieta About Clary Alieta and Guen went up to the den and they both sat down. "Okay Alieta, seeing that you are the queen it best you know about Clary," said Guen. "Okay so tell me what I need to know so there won't be any surprises. I won't tell anyone, except for Ginger maybe," said Alieta. "Yes Ginger is fine too," said Guen. "Well first she inherited a lot of her fathers traits with hair, eyes, nails and wings and has all the skills of a fairy from me. Now even shortly after birth she showed many talents that fairies don't have at such a young age. When she was fully grown after a few weeks that was a bit longer than normal, I didn't just send her out to mix with the other fairies after I had taught her all that I knew about being a fairy and how to make food and stuff with her wand but also noticed her wand was quite a bit bigger than normal too." "Yes I noticed that when Tulip and her made sundaes for every one plus they are both left handed," said Alieta. "Well yes, Tulip is the best cook so together they made the perfect sundaes for everyone, but Tulip was the only fairy princess to have her wand in her left hand for some reason, just like Clary," said Guen. "Now instead of sending Clary out with the other fairies, I got her to spend some time with her father that is never done among fairies. Samson was glad to spend some time with Clary mostly because he was a sprite and not a fairy and was more family oriented then male fairies. Now Samson has many talents and one was being able to read someone very deeply. It didn't take him long to see that Clary had many of his traits and would have to be taught how to use them all properly. Now the fun part for me was that Clary always wanted to come back to me each night. She called us Mom and Dad and loved us both. She would tell me what her father taught her and sometimes showed me. This went on for almost a full month until Samson came to me and said Clary was ready to mix with the other girls but he thought that she will still be needing both of us in her life. Of coarse I agreed seeing Samson was a very handsome man. Now as time went by, Clary got older and wiser. Samson had left to do what sprite do back them but he always came back from time to time to check on Clary and meet each new sister that I made." "Why did he leave?" asked Alieta. "Yes I knew you would wonder about that but you would know more about how a sprite thinks. He said there were many things he had to do and staying in a forest with fairies forever wasn't what he felt he was created for. Regardless I still needed to make more fairy princess if we were every going to be able to create a cove so life went on with Samson returning about every fifty years. Mostly he hung around with Clary and told her tales of what he had been doing but also made sure to meet all the fairy princesses. He was really good at making them laugh and his visits were always welcomed. Now it didn't take long for everyone to see that Clary was special from the rest of them. She could fly much faster, she was very strong and could read the other fairies plus she was very good at coming up with games for everyone to play. These were things that Clary couldn't hide including her big wand but everyone loved her and did everything she said seeing she was the oldest fairy princess." "So what is up with the big wand?" asked Alieta. "Well you know the saying, "Bigger is better" well her wand was much better than anyone else's and very powerful." "Powerful in what way?" asked Alieta. "Well I told you that Samson could send out energy blasts like all sprites could do when they were just floating balls of energy. Well that energy blast is very strong by it's self. That power got transferred to Clary also and when she was able to create her wand after about a week after birth it would glow brightly even before she went to use it. This concerned me at first but Samson told me that her wand was just absorbing natural magic around her until the bond between body and wand was complete. That doesn't happen with pure breed fairies. Samson taught Clary how to use the wand properly and when not to use it. Now I figured that this wand had become a weapon also so entering a magic forest would be impossible to her, just like Garson Fairies. Samson said that may not be the case because his energy, that is the same in clay's wand is made up of white magic only. That is some powerful magic as you know. She can send out a power blast with her wand and even make a shield around herself and maybe more but is still no match against a wizard or demon's blast. At least it might stop the first and second hit from one of them and won't kill her so she can heal herself like all other fairies." "Okay so that is why Ivy said she was like a super fairy then," said Alieta. "Well I suppose she is," said Guen. "Now I am sure that Ivy's reading skills are much stronger than Clary's from what Clary told me about not being able to read Ivy very deeply yet Ivy as you know won't read someone deep unless you ask them too once she knows they are not evil but I bet Clary can't block Ivy like everyone else." Why do you think Ivy can read Clary deep? asked Alieta. "Clary said that Ivy was very good at blocking her but she did sense an inner energy in her like she had never seen before. As you know Ivy can sense danger coming from long distances and even read someone from a distance. Clary has to be close by to do that. Ivy is a super forest sprite with all the things she can do. Now back to the wand, Clary still won't kill or hurt a person or animal and even a creature but will kill a creature if she is in danger or anyone else around her is too. She is a fairy still you know, just a better one I suppose you can say. Now she is going to want to spend time with Tulip, I know this. Tulip has amazing skills in making food and understanding designs plus can take charge in the forest better than anyone. She is a natural leader and her wand is more powerful than the rest of her sisters but nothing like Clary's. Once Clary gets involved with the forest and sees what Ivy can do with the magic which is amazing by it's self, she will be a great help to both Tulip and Ivy and I heard that Sara is doing really good also so between the four of them, just about anything will be possible in Fae Land. Now you are the queen and Tulip will always ask you first before making any changes or adding things anywhere here. I told her that a long time ago. So do you have any questions? That is about all I know about her before she went missing." "Well not really, said Alieta but one thing still puzzles me and that is why it took her so long to return seeing she can fly so fast. We are talking a bit over one hundred years." "Well that I am unsure of also," said Guen. "When she was telling everyone about her adventures coming home I could tell she was leaving out big blocks of time for some reason. My guess is she found some places that were safe for a while and met some good people or found people that needed her help, that is what a fairy does naturally but she did say that it had been a long time that she had a real friend to Ivy. How long, who knows but she is here now and looks like she is staying for good. I may borrow her from time to time to make improvements to Fairy Land. She can do things by herself in a forest better than fairy princesses can do as a group. She just needs Tulip to teach her more about design and stuff. I will give her some time to absorb things and also teach her the rules of Fae Land before I go back." "Okay that should be enough I need to know," said Alieta. "Well you should get Mother Nature to meet her. She is the only one I told about Clary and was very sad to hear that she was killed," said Guen. "This will be very good news to her also." "Okay I will do that soon," said Alieta. "So what do you want to do while she is sleeping?" "I want to go to the forest and see what they have been doing in there. I am sure they have come up with something else by now," said Guen. "Yes I heard something about a temple that Lilly came up with," said Alieta. "Supposedly they were having problems with it but Tillia helped them to fix it. "Oh Tillia is here now too, that is good news," said Guen. "So has she got a companion yet?" "Yep, Sara and they are almost always together now," said Alieta. "Wow that is unusual but I can see how the two of them can be good for each other," said Guen. "I must see Tillia also before leaving. Never had the pleasure of meeting her, just stories and stuff. "Well she is usually here for lunch and sometimes supper too. She eats a lot so Tulip likes to make her a big bowl of food. Saves me on keeping her a supply of fresh fruit and vegetables at their place," said Alieta. "Ya I bet she can pack it away pretty good," said Guen.
