"The realm of the faeries?" Luna nodded while Mia sat on a bed in the inn, the inn was quit big and well the bedroom was her favorite part of the inn. It had a round shaped bed with a gold stand decorated by flowers which were wrapped around the edges, the beautiful marble floors that laid in the room gave the room this sort of cool feeling and then the beautiful view that could be seen from the balcony at the end of the room. It was indeed something pulled out from a fairy tale but honestly she’d never expected to hear of the word realm of the faeries in her life. In a book or a movie maybe but not in real life, this definitely had to be a prop or something. She stood up from where she sat and walked towards the balcony to take in the view - it looked to real to be fake, she had to be dreaming or probably she was in a coma… well that’s reasonable since she’d just had a plane crash. "Come to think of it" she thought to herself as she stared out at the balcony. It was very impossible to be alive after such a horrid plane crash so that was it she was dead. Chills ran down her spine as the thought slipped into her mind
"I wasn't supposed to tell you this, I thought you were a mage. Young lord wouldn't be happy about this" Luna bowed her head and Mia turned to her.
"It's okay, I won't tell him I know" she was trying her best to be composed "mage?I got to be dead” she gasped terrified at the fact, just when she had gotten her dream job. "This can't be happening" she was beginning to panic. I have to be alive..." she squeezed her skin hard between her fingers trying to figure out if this was actually real.
"Damn!" she yelped, that stung like hell
"Are you okay?" Luna asked rushing up to her and she nodded rubbing against her arm but she obviously wasn’t.
"This must be really confusing to you since you are a human... I'm so sorry it's just that I never imagined that a ordinary human could actually make it here" Luna seemed really agitated
"Why is that?" Mia asked placing her hand on Luna's shoulder in an attempt to calm her down, although she needed that even more.
"Well, a long time ago faeries could access the human world as they please and humans could also enter our realm but because of the actions of some dark fays towards the humans and the humans to our world an unanimous decision was made and our realm was closed to the humans forever and the dark fays were moved and imprisoned in this realm... the only way a fay can get out is when he is contracted to a mage and the only way a human can get in is through the mages door and from the name it is really impossible for you to be here."
"What?" that was the only thing Mia could say right now. This definitely had to be a joke
"I think I'm just making you more confused"
you think? She placed her hand over her face and rested lazily against the wall. "How did I get here then?" she sighed
"That I don't know" Luna replied and Mia shut her for bit to relax her mind, she took in a deep breath and finally opened up her eyes again.
"So you are a fay?" she asked
"A nature spirit, I'm in charge of my young lord's home"
"Of course" Mia rolled her eyes moving away from the wall
"Mia, I think you should rest... Young lord would find a way to send you back to your world"
"I highly doubt that" she crossed her arms and walked over to the bed.
"Believe me, the fact that you are here must be making him uncomfortable so he'll definitely find a way to send you back" she assured before leaving the room. Mia laid back on the bed staring at the crystal like glass ceiling that stood above her having mixed feeling, she closed her eyes with the hope that when she’d open them, all this would be over.

Diarmuid walked around his study feeling really unorganized, for some reason he felt suffocated... his mind wondering. Wondering for a solution to his present ordeal - The human who had invaded his fortress. "Master you should relax, your sister will definitely find a way to send her back" Luna noted and he nodded still not at peace. Pausing in his steps he took his eyes to the window. "What was that?" he muttered pulling Luna's attention to the window as well.
Mia opened her eyes very much disappointed, she was still on the oddly comfortable bed in the inn, the only different was that it was darker now. A table stood next to the bed with a tray holding a covered dish on it probably from Luna... she didn't know what was under that cover but it smelt delicious and well right now she starving, opening up the dish she caught a glimpse of what smelt so good hopefully it tasted as good as it looked. A grilled fish with lime, fried chips and sauce laid before her and she instantly drooled at the sight, without taking another thought she dived into the dish - thank goodness it tasted as good as it smelt.
Once she was done with the dish, she gulped down the glass of flavored water that stood next to dish and headed out for some fresh air. The atmosphere felt different and the environment looked more beautiful at night... dozens of bright colorful lights filled the sky just like the ones she'd seen around Diarmuid. Mia walked up to the stream in search for Luna when she noticed something at the other side of the bridge, there was a bright light emanating from within the cherry blossom field and she walked towards it. As she got closer to the light she saw something foggy standing at the end.
"What the hell?" She muttered moving further to get a clearer view, when something pulled her back.
"What do you think you are doing?" It was Diarmuid
"I I..." Mia stuttered the entire feel in the environment had suddenly turned into something eerie
