Rebecca o'Donnell was born into a poor peasant family on a cold rainy day. The family is large and the small fishing cottage was crowded and cramped. Her Mother looked at her Father and nodded wordlessly, tears pooling in her eyes. Silently with a heavy heart her father took her into the rosewood forest and left her wrapped in a small blanket, lying on a mound of soft green moss. Rebecca looked around with her large brown eyes and cried. The cry echoed in the still forest and a Gentle Faie raised her head. Flying swiftly to the small baby, she gasped with delight and stroked the soft downy cheek.

After much consideration, the fairy council agreed to adopt the baby into the barren royal family. There was concern about the size of the baby as she was much too large to fit into any of the palace’s tiny rooms. The seven wise Grandmyllas used their conjoined powers to resize the baby into a more comfortable fit ~ the size of a newborn fairy. Happily the Queen embraced the human baby and held her to her breast. "From now on you will be known as Rebecca Eliora Ellandria Ellenfae," she cried out. As she spoke these words, her tinkling voice carried throughout the palace and rang out across the land. From fairy villages to bustling cities, all creatures heard her voice and paused to pay homage. A wonderful miracle had taken place ~ the queen now had an heir!

Rebecca was raised in a happy family, filled with dancing, laughter, and merrymaking of all sorts. Every day was a new day to celebrate the miracle of life and the beauty of nature. She grew quickly and was taught all sorts of marvelous things. Her one regret was her lack of wings ~ which her mother assured her she would be granted when Rebecca inherited the throne. Rebecca’s happy life ground to a halt on the day of her 8th birthday in the midst of celebration and feasting. A treasure hunt was offered as part of the entertainment. Happily, Rebecca raced across the forest floor, laughing as she collected beautiful feathers, sparkling stones and flowers of all sorts. Abruptly she was grabbed, thrown into a sack and magically transported to the dark Island of Aronelle.

Captured by a Swamp Henkie and branded with the tattoos of power. She is now bound for all time to the Dark Island. The dark Queen left Rebecca far under the palace in a stinking dungeon room, who was happy to own a new "pet." Rebecca Eliora Ellandria Ellenfae was determined to escape the moldy dank palace using her clever mind and every trick the fairies had taught her. Finally through a small hole in the darkest most evil smelling corner of the vast maze of underground tunnels and rooms, she found a way out. Unrelenting with her optimism, she decided that even though she was bound to the Island, she would not despair. Rebecca would use her talent and fairy tricks to help other captured fairies escape the palace and create new homes on the Evil Island. A bright spark of life and happiness she was to the captured fae, a blessed hope in the bewildering new world of fog, shadows, and evil smelling bogs.

Memoles are sneaky little fairies who love to find treasures amongst the vaults and towers on the dark island. Happy as can be they crawl into the dark crannies to seek out their hearts greatest desire ~ gold. Their greatest ambition in life is to capture the sun, which they think is a shiny bright pot of gold. They are always thinking up ways to trick the sun to come down to earth. When the sun touches the rim of the earth, they think they have finally won and race to where they think the sun is resting. Night after night they are disappointed as the sun slips from their grasp and magically disappears.

Emily's Fairies, Fairy, Moon Flame Sculpture No.564 *Tika* is intricately and delicately hand sculpted with polymer clay (she is one of a kind and comes straight from my imagination - NO mold is used) from the tip of her up turned nose to her little tiny Fairy toes ~ Tika is 3 1/2 inches tall. Amazingly her wings are made with translucent material. Her Wings are flexible, you can pose them to your liking) and almost take longer to create then the Fairy itself with special attention to color and design - these wings are coated with a rainbow glaze. The wings are also detachable for easier shipping and added strength. Her eyes are carefully sculpted to show emotion and the "eye" itself is hand painted many shades of gray. Tika has wispy shiny dark red hair. Her hair is high quality angora mohair, hand-curled and handmade into a wig, applied lock by lock. All Fairies are numbered, dated, signed by the Artist and come with a Certificate of Authenticity, and the Memole story.

Tika looked all around before she snatched the sparkling pink gem off the Swamp Henkies robe. "It's my pretty now!" she whispered.
