Part 1

The time I spent with the three Fairies after they turned into humans led to the discovery of a secret about the River located in the heart of the forest, not too far from the Magic Tree. Well, it was a late afternoon when I was cleaning some paintings I had inside, preparing to sell them the following day, I heard the three Fairies enjoying a bath in the River. And a few minutes later, I went down to find them.

To be completely honest, the three Fairies were not naked; they were dressed in their usual style of clothing. “Ley?” Honeycherley called out to me as I descended from the treehouse. “Hi Honeycherley!” I replied.

“What's going on?” I asked.

“Can you keep a secret?” Honeycherley inquired. “Yes? Why?” I responded.

“Okay, come with me,” she said. “Be quiet! There's something I want to show you,” Honeycherley instructed.

“Okay? Sure?” I replied.

“I don't see why not.”

At that moment, Honeycherley took my hand and walked me to the section of the River where she and the other Fairies were bathing. “So, you brought me here to watch the River or is there something else?” I asked Honeycherley. “Where are the other two Fairies?” I also inquired. Despite my questions, Honeycherley did not respond; instead, she pushed me into the River.

Indeed, I fell into the water, and Honeycherley took my hand, pulling me down deep into the River with her. Throughout my time in the forest, I had never realized that part of the river was so deep—almost like a portal.
