Though Danica's words were a little more comforting this time, Maera didn't cease to look at the small reddish leaf with suspicion. The mention of the word, fairies though didn alert the young babe. Not knowing its meaning, the baby tilted her head to the side. The way the female used it gave the sense that it was something bad, but the little ring to the word sounded beautiful. "Fairies are bad or good?" she questioned.
For the young girl, all things in the world could fall onto two categories, bad or good. (bugs were a definite BAD). And while she still believed firmly in this black or white persperctive she would soon begin to see the the inbetweens. As Danica continued to give her a little insight on what these fairy things were, the girl's hazel eyes fell again on the leaf.
"Can you eat it?" she mumbled suddenly, not referring to the leaf of course, but to the fairy. It was hard for the always-hungry babe to ask relevant questions with an empty belly--whoops.
