Only in Otherworld?
I said, “I want to visit a bright land next, a simple land.” Well, we don’t always get what we want, in the FaireLands, but we do receive the blessings that come to us. And so, the next morning found me in Otherworld. I found myself on a beach, sand in my toes, but dressed Continue reading

A Figment in Tinker’s Hollow
When I found myself in Tinker’s Hollow, I was at first too overwhelmed to take it all in. The darkness of the landscape was contrasted by bright bean-shaped paths in some places and wide roads in others, dirt paths into which something seemed to have been inscribed in yet others. To be honest, I Continue reading

Why Do I Relay?
Catalina Staheli took this photo of one of my avatars last year. It was April of 2015, and my husband, Joe Raftery, had just been told that there was no curative treatment his doctors felt would work for him. There was no way to tell how long his life would be, but Hodgkins Lymphoma, a Continue reading

Dancing in Serenity
I admit it: I slept in after my night of dancing and (almost) carousing in Lucentia. When I awoke, sometime in the afternoon, I found myself clad completely in flowers, cherry blossoms. What a lovely complement to my planned visit to Serenity. Serenity is almost a mythological Realm, at least to Fae children in some Continue reading

The Rooftops of Lucentia
Another day, another Realm. So much to see. I remain in awe of the magicians and sorcerers who bring the Realms together each year for the Great Fantasy Faire. This morning found me in Lucentia, a city of dark wood and glowing lights, full of the most interesting people. The whole city seems to be Continue reading

Balloons in Breeze
Sometimes, the Faire seems as if it will never end, though with every day there is the rising knowledge that it will end one day sooner. Anyway, yesterday, I found myself in the Realm of Breeze. It was like walking in to a storybook, the sort of place you never want to leave. It would Continue reading

The Seedy Underbelly…?
It’s easy to get the idea, when you visit here once a year for the best shopping in more worlds than we small dwellers upon them can count, that all of the Fairelands are a bright, cheerful, or at least beautiful, place. This is not true. Each year I’ve visited the Great Faire, I’ve become Continue reading

Assignment: The Golden Delta
Well, first of all, it’s too fucking sunny here. Delicate drow skin, even when expertly painted by one of the amazing women at 7 Deadly s{K}ins, is very delicate. I still can’t seem to change from my drow skin, probably thanks to Herself’s magic or something, is really not handling the sun and sand of Continue reading

The Great Faire
It’s that amazing time of year again! The Fairelands are open! There is so much to see, so much to do, and of course, so much to buy. The Kingdom will have to wait for a couple of weeks: but everyone knows where I’ll be when the Great Fantasy Faire is on, so I’m sure Continue reading

A Dream of Spring
So far, it has been a hard Spring. On the Equinox, Maric left our world, leaving me as the sole ruler of Faerie, me and the doubtless growing number of Fae who would like to “advise” me. And though many of my subjects and friends might not realise or understand, I grieved for him, and Continue reading
