Chapter 1

Let us tell a story anew and we will see how well you know it. Once upon a time, there were two kingdoms that were the worst of neighbors. So vast was the discord between them that it was said only a great hero or a terrible villain might bring them together. In one kingdom lived folk like you and me with a vain and greedy king to rule over them. They were forever discontent and envious of the wealth and beauty of their neighbors. For in the other kingdom, the Moors, lived every manner of strange and wonderful creatures and they needed neither King nor Queen but trusted in one another. In a great tree on a great cliff in the Moors, lived one such spirit. You might take him for a boy but he was not just any boy. He was a fairy

A 12 year old boy with horns on his head, purple stripes on each cheeks, yellow sclera, purple eyes, purple hair at the bottom with black hair on top and bird-like wings was playing with his toys when he heard a snap and saw a broken branch so he used his magic to heal the broken branch as he smiles and says "There you go" and his name was Keith

Keith was flying over the beautiful creatures of the Moors. Such as the unicorns

The Pegasi

The fauns

The fairies

The centaurs

And their mates, the centaurides

Keith smiles at the sight of these creatures when he hears arguing and knows that it can only be Coran, Hunk and, Matt Pidge the four fairies because they always argue over pretty much anything, really. Keith lands softly on the ground and asks "What's all the fuss about?" Coran replies "The border guards-" but a 10 year old boy named Hunk asks "Why do you get to tell him? I wanna tell him" a 6 year old girl named Pidge argues "No, I wanna tell him" Coran states "There are rules, you two. I tell this time, you tell next time" Hunk retorts "No, you told last time so I should tell this time and Pidge next time" Keith asks "Tell me what?" Coran says "Fine" Hunk says "Thank you. Keith" but a 12 year old boy named Matt interrupts "The border guards have found a human thief at the Pool of Jewels" Coran, Pidge and Hunk glare at him as he says "Sorry"

Keith flies off as a gust of wind he created causes the three fairies to be pushed aside as Pidge grumbles "Oh, he's always in a hurry with his big wings" Coran says "Humans here. I hope there's not another war" Keith flew to the Pool of Jewels where two warriors were hunching towards the cave as Keith lands on one of the stones, the tree creature grumbles in his foreign language as Keith says "I'm not afraid. Besides, I've never seen a human up close" Keith faces the cave and demands "Come out" the human says "No, they mean to kill me and besides, they're hideous to look at" Keith says "That's extremely rude" he turns to the tree creature and says "Don't listen to him, Ulaz. You're classically handsome" Ulaz bows his head as Keith states "It's not right to steal but we don't kill people for it. Come out. Come out this instant"

Keith sees a young boy with white hair and almost the same age as he is when Keith asks "Are you fully grown?" the boy replies "No" Keith turns to Ulaz and says "I believe he's just a boy" the boys states "So are you" Keith asks "Who are you?" the 11 year old boy replies "I'm called Lotor" and asks "Who are you?" Keith replies "I'm Keith" Ulaz interrupted the boys as he reminded Keith the issue at hand as Keith says "Yes, right" Keith turns to Lotor and demands "Give it back" Lotor asks "Give what back?" Keith holds out his hand and replies "Give it" Lotor sighs and reluctantly takes the jewel from his pocket as he gives it to Keith who drops it in the ocean. Keith and Lotor leave the forest as Lotor says "If I knew you would throw it away, I would have kept it" Keith states "I didn't throw it away. I delivered it home as I'm gonna do for you" Lotor and Keith see a beautiful palace as Lotor points his finger at the castle and says "Someday, you know, I'll live there. In the castle"

Keith asks "Where do you live now?" Lotor replies "In a barn" Keith asks "So, you're parents are farmers, then?" Lotor sadly replies "My parents are dead" Keith sadly agrees "Mine too" Lotor smiles and says "We'll see each other again" but Keith warns 'You really shouldn't come back here, you know. It's not safe" Lotor asks "And if I made that choice, if I came back, would you be here?" Keith replies "Perhaps" Lotor holds out his hand and asks "So, it's a deal?" Keith places his hand on Lotor's hand but when they touch, Keith lets out a cry of pain and Lotor asks "What's wrong?" Keith replies "Your ring. Iron burns fairies" Lotor takes off his ring and says "I'm so sorry" and Lotor throws the ring somewhere onto the field and he notices Keith's wings and says "I like your wings" and Lotor leaves as Keith smiles knowing he has found a friend who was a human nonetheless
