Note: This story is "The Fairy Chronicles."  I changed the title to "A Fairy Story" at the request of an author who is using "The Fairy Chronicles" title for her stories.  I hope this has not created any confusion for any of you who had downloaded the story thinking it was a new one.

This, my children, is A Fairy Story. The stories I tell are ancient truths from a time when the world I created was filled with joy and love and peace and happiness. Then one day, something very, very horrible happened.

The truth begins with a very, very bad human king and a very, very horrible day. Who that horrible king was, what happened on that very, very horrible day, and what becomes of my fairy and human children, well, you must find that out for yourself.
