I was currently preparing to leave the Fae compound, my first time ever being let out. We used to live in a magical mound that was hidden away from the humans, but as time went on we migrated to living inside houses instead of in underground castles. I barely remember living in the ground, but I much prefer living in the light of the sun every day.
I am a Dryad, so I love being out where the sun could hit my face. When I was in my woodland form I liked to sun my leaves and branches as I sat by the lake in the back of the compound.
This was the first time that I have ever been given permission to leave home, even though I was nearly ninety years old. The reason I never left was because our Queen didn't often give her permission to leave.
