A Fairy Tale #28: Fairy and knight by deviantGrubb on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

This tiny fairy examines a knight that one of their tribe at some point turned to stone. This fairy has no power, like a lot of the younger fairies. So she can’t undo the stone spell to release them. There are stone knights all over, so many turned over the years. Now, they are a sad reminder of the dark side of the fairy history.

They are at a point now where they can’t reverse the spell. They don’t have that power anymore. They are dressed in rags like this fairy, and other than their wings, their regression to human beings is almost complete. It’s just a matter of time before they lose their wings. Depression is rampant among the fairies. Soon they will leave their home to go beg in the cities for food and clothes. They don’t have the willpower or strength to do it themselves anymore.

Where is their King? Dakath? …..maybe he could save them…..but he’s probably dead as most say as he’s not been seen in decades.
