Dusk had fallen and still Orlando's girls were fast asleep. He had explored the whole house. Nothing appealed to him. He had all the interesting things inside his room.
Orlando peeped again in the next room. Ivana and Brie were on the same position. His glance hovered on the large and ancient-looking mirror. The life-sized and mural painting of a forest also caught his attention.
"They are both glowing!" he exclaimed to himself. The mirror was pinkish and the p
"They are corrupted! Poor creatures!""Aeei!" Orlando squealed with astonishment. He was extremely startled by Feddy. "Feddy? Is that you?""Yes!" Feddy seemed angry."W-why--?"
"Could be." Vino was rubbing the side of his jaw. He was deep in thought."By the way, Olga--or the likeness of Olga--was taken hostage of the Golden Strands!" Orlando had shown consideration to Brie's tender ears. He did not tell them about the scene of debauchery."Let me touch your forehead, sir," Vino requested suddenly.

It had a pinkish glimmer because the mirror was still enchanted.He relived again the exact moment he was imprisoned inside the mirror.Vino had the witch ready for the magic net. She was inside his Tornado of Power. He was confident that she could not do anything anymore.
Nerida was flying around tiredly. She could not locate her family anymore. The last place was more than half a decade now. They should not leave their home without her..."Oh, Mother, Father, I am sorry for being such a hardheaded fairy! If not my stubborn love for Norlando, you'd be still here! Waiting for me! Hu! hu! hu!" she wept as hours went by.Norlando was handsome and strong. He was a charismatic character. Nerida was attracted at once. She would follow
Nerida could feel Olga holding her closely as they walked to the back room. Her sight faded slowly until it turned black.When her consciousness returned, Nerida was inside the glass jar. All around her were also women imprisoned in similar jars."Help! Mother! Father! Help me, Queen Mother!" Nerida shouted for help from her parents. She even asked for help from the queen fairy. "Help me, Norlando!" She was not sure if Norlando knew that his grandmother was a w
The Queen Mother was Leda, Nerida's mother!"Mother, I mean, my Queen Mother!" Nerida hesitated coming to her."Nerida? Nerida, my child! Oh, Nuro, our child is alive!" With open arms, Leda embraced the prodigal fairy.Both her parents were crying. Nerida was crying, too.
