A Golden Christmas

Posted on December 24, 2022 by Felines and Fiction

Zoisite Zina flies round the Gemstone Glade Christmas tree, laughter like the sweetest tonic in her throat.

There are only two giant baubles left, a gold or a diamond one, what a choice! Zina makes up her mind, and lands on the golden bauble. It then flies around the glade, expanding in size to finally turn in to a portal of golden light.

The golden tunnel leads to a world on fire with gold. A golden prairie stretches as far as Zina can see, and a golden sun kisses the land with bright gold light.

A tribe of yellow maned unicorns confront her. Each sports a shining golden horn.

“Welcome,” says a tall unicorn with glistening green eyes. “I am Georgia of the Golden Unicorn Clan. Dear fairy from afar, take our golden blessings home with you, and enjoy the wisdom of the golden ray for the rest of your life.”

Georgia directs her golden horn towards Zina. Zina’s wings turn golden, and a golden crown manifests on her head. Suddenly, she can think more clearly. Little does she know, that the gold crown has infinitely increased her intelligence, supercharging her brain like a magic battery.

Zina bows her head in a silent thank you. Back in Gemstone Glade, she flies around the Christmas tree again, then joins the golden angel at its top. The angel turns to her, smiles and takes her hand. Together, they descend to the fountain, and its healing waters turn golden.

Dominic the Dolphin jumps up to kiss them both. His eyes twinkle with reflected golden magic.

It is time for the Gemstone Glade crystalline fairies to party. No one celebrates a Christmas quite as special as a Gemstone Glade Christmas.

And it is time for the power of gold to heal all hearts everywhere. It is time for every golden Christmas wish to come true.

Dolphin Dream

Posted on December 23, 2022 by Felines and Fiction

Crystalline fairy Moonstone Marina flies eagerly round the Gemstone Glade Christmas Tree, finally deciding to land on a large blue bauble in the hands of a golden fairy. The fairy smiles, and Marina’s eyes grin with festive fun.

The blue bauble falls to the ground, grows larger and larger and then transforms in to a portal of azure light.

Marina laughs as she flies in to the bubble of blue bliss.

She arrives on a beach kissed by a clear blue sea, the colour of a summer sky with no clouds. A unicorn with sea green eyes and a golden horn comes towards her. “Welcome, fair fairy. I am Etta of the Mer Unicorn Tribe. This is Sun Sanctuary, a world of unending sea and island beaches. Travellors come from all over the cosmos to swim in our ocean, it is deeply healing. This planet is a holiday resort for the sick. Look out to the sea, do you see the dolphins playing in the distance? Go and join them, you will learn much.”

Marina flies over the sea. The dolphins ahead are jumping with joy. The air is alive with calm contentment and fresh air fun.

“Greetings, little fairy!” Marina is astonished to see the silver horn on each dolphin’s head. They are uni-dolphins, and as such are powerful healers.

“Cone with us to our underwater city, Dolphin Dream.” The dolphin gently points his horn at her. “Follow us, you will be able to breath underwater now.”

Marina trusts them, and dives in to the blue water. She can breathe normally, a pocket of oxygen is around her like a protective blanket.

Eventually they arrive at the foot of the ocean, where tall silver tunnels converge to a large underwater palace of aquamarine and rose quartz crystal. Marina claps her hands in delight. She truly is in paradise.

She spends many happy hours with the dolphins, who gift her a small mer-crystal, the colour of the sea and with a tiny dolphin figure inside. Marina is enchanted.

However it is time to go home, before the magic portal to Gemstone Glade closes.

Marina swims to the surface, and flies to the beach with a sunshine smile on her face. The portal is still there and she flies through. She places her little crystal in the Gemstone Glade fountain. It cracks open like an egg, and the tiny dolphin inside swims free, jumping for joy.

Gemstone Glade has a new delightful denizen. The healing power of Sun Sanctuary’s ocean turns the fountain azure blue. The fairies rush to the fountain and drink. Waves of sea strength surge through their crystalline bodies, as the tiny dolphin jumps up to kiss them. They call their new friend Dominic the Dolphin. Join us in 2023 as Dominic starts his adventures in earnest.

Quartz Dream

Posted on December 20, 2022 by Felines and Fiction

Morganite Meg flies round and round the Gemstone Glade Christmas Tree, checking out the remaining giant baubles. She makes a choice, smiles with fairy faith and lands on the clear quartz ball. It flies in to the air, then grows in size to turn in to a portal of bright white light.

Meg closes her eyes, and flies in to the shimmering light.

She arrives in a land of clear quartz crystal, clumps growing like small trees. Above a quartz crystal sun delivers bright milky light all around. The quartz stalactites litter the landscape like rubbish from heaven. In the distance, a clear quartz mountain glows in the sun. This is a land of mystery and magic.

Meg lands on a giant crystal, and feels heat rise through her body. Little does she know that her brain is being charged with quartz power, and from now on she will be infinitely more intelligent.

Meg flies towards the distant mountain, attracted to its solemn silence. Golden clouds hug its peak. There are caves at its foot. As she arrives, a quartz dragon emerges from one of them, blowing out a cloud of golden fire. He looks up, and sees Meg above. Fear fingers her tiny features. However the dragon says in her head:

“Welcome, fairy of another world. You come from far. I am Estara, crystalline guardian of dragons. Do you know a winged white unicorn and a black unicorn? They are destined to come here, I sense they may be from your land. Tell them we are ready, they will bring great blessings.”

Meg replies, “There are many unicorns where I come from.”

“Here is a gift for you,” says Estara. She circles her head, and a shining golden star appears, just the right size for Meg to step on to.

“Fly with this star to the land of your dreams!”

The star takes Meg to a sister Gemstone Glade, with a golden fountain and a Christmas tree hung with shining stars. There is a golden dragon at the top of the tree.

“Welcome,” he says. “This is a land beyond the stars, a secret dimension of magic. Stay here awhile, and wish upon all the stars on this tree. When you return home, your wishes will come true.”

Meg closes her eyes. She wishes that all children everywhere will find happiness this Christmas. And perhaps, just like her, they will wish on a star. And for this night only, all dreams will come true.

Indigo Infinity

Posted on December 19, 2022 by Felines and Fiction

Crystal fairy Lapis Lara giggles as she floats above the Gemstone Glade Christmas Tree. Then she begins to sing, a hymn for the happy, laughter in lyrics.

Her gold-flecked blue body shines in the frosty air, while her indigo tutu twirls as she flies. Lara chooses an indigo globe, landing on it gracefully. Its golden guardian fairy nods at her, pleased. The giant bauble falls to the ground, growing quickly larger until it turns in to a portal of deep indigo light.

Lara flies through a lapis lazuli tunnel, her soul crystal singing inside her.

Finally, she arrives at a golden brown beach, leading to an indigo blue sea, flecks of gold glinting in its waves. It is a liquid lapis lazuli sea, and can heal body and soul.

The shore is covered by nesting turtles, each with a patch of lapis lazuli on their shell. Eggs with a tiny speck of lapis blue lie in half hidden nests. Lara flies over them, delight painting a sunshine smile on her face.

An egg cracks open beneath her, and she descends to greet the little fellow. He looks in to her eyes, as Lara sings a lapis lullaby. “Take me home with you,” he implores her. So Lara holds his baby turtle hand, and they fly together through the lapis portal.

The baby turtle looks round Gemstone Glade in awe. Then he clambers up and in to its fountain, immediately at home.

Gemstone Glade welcomes its new citizen as the crystal fairies fly above and sing the sweetest song. They christen the baby Tommy. He gazes up at them with eyes of indigo blue. The tiny lapis crystal on his back glows under the fountain waters. Lara sits on the fountain edge. Happiness erupts in her heart. Far away, an indigo sea kisses its waiting shore, as a moon climbs the sky. A lapis lazuli lullaby fills the night, a hymn of healing, a song of sanctuary unblemished.

Tommy looks up to a different moon. He knows he has found a forever home. Christmas cradles Gemstone Glade in its frosty arms, as the baby falls asleep. The moon rises higher, and the night is at peace.

Magic Meadow

Posted on December 11, 2022 by Felines and Fiction

Fluorite Fiona flies in a frenzy round the Gemstone Glade Christmas Tree, trying to decide which coloured ball to land on. They will all unleash Christmas magic, but which the best? In desperate indecision, she finally lands on the spring grass green ball. It glows with inner festive fire. Slowly the green ball falls to the glade below, Fiona clinging on top. It grows in size, as Fiona flies round it, glee in her snow shine smile. Then the ball transforms in to a huge portal of green light. Laughing shrilly, Fiona flies through to the spring meadow beyond.

A purple sun shines in a soft green sky, a mirror of the undulating green grass below. Daisies flood the field in a powerful pattern of pink and yellow bliss.

Fiona lands in a cluster of daisies. They lean towards her and begin to speak.

“Who are you, sweet fairy?” Fiona is astonished, however replies. “I am Fluorite Fiona of Gemstone Glade.”

“We are daisy divas, superpower flowers who can heal you when we sing.” With that, they launch in to the most beautiful song. It is a Christmas carol.

As they sing, the sky turns deep violet as shining white clouds move across it. Then it begins to snow, whispers of winter in the air. Fiona tastes a snowflake as it lands on her lips. It is the taste of every Christmas wish come true. Tears fall from her crystalline eyes. Beauty bewitches her brain.

“Take some of our seeds back to Gemstone Glade with you.” A daisy blows yellow pollen in to Fiona’s hands.

The daisies continue to sing. The winter spell is complete. Christmas has claimed the land.
