57: Eye candy

 *Soleil*

 It takes me all day searching the shore for a branch that are usable for my staff. Tjalfe had told me I would know, that it would stand out from the rest. Problem is, none of them are standing out to me. In the end I give up and start helping the vaetter clean up. Even if Gudrun has told me about other beings than trolls and elves, I almost fall on my but when little beings with big shimmering wings introduces themself as fairies.

 "We are the spirits of the trees and we protect the forest, the animals and the plants. You can call for us by sitting under a tree". One of the fairies says.

 "I am really sorry to have disturbed the balance like this". I apologise, as I drag a heavy branch away to the stack.

 "Well you have made sure there is fire wood for a long time and lots to repair the cabin. It can use it". The fairy explains.
