The Fairy and the Shadow

Long ago, when the Earth was not filled with people and cities and even many things had no names, there was a mystifying place that was guarded by the Fairy of the Lake. The Fairy was very generous and had many followers who were always ready to serve her. Once, some evil beings threatened the Lake and its surrounding forests. Now, their only hope to save the Lake was the Crystal Stone. The journey of searching for the Crystal Stone was dangerous but all the followers joined the Fairy. The Fairy warned them about the dangers and the hardship they would have to endure, but they were not afraid. They were ready to accompany her. So, the Fairy and her followers set out on their journey. The voyage was more dreadful than the Fairy had imagined and warned about. First, they met horrifying beasts. They travelled day and night through deserts, rivers and feeling hungry and thirsty.

Many followers could not bear such hardship and abandoned the journey. At last, only one remained, and his name was Shadow. Shadow was neither brave nor a great fighter. Neither he was quick-witted nor humorous. But, he stayed loyal to the Fairy till the every end. Whenever the Fairy asked Shadow why he had not done as the others, Shadow would always say, “I will follow you, no matter how difficult the situation is. I will never turn my back on you.”
With the help of her loyal Shadow, the Fairy finally managed to reach the Crystal Stone. But a monster guarded the stone. Now, Shadow, in his last act of loyalty, offered himself to the monster in exchange for the stone. The monster agreed, and so Shadow spent the rest of his days as the monster’s slave. The Fairy took the Crystal Stone and saved the Lake.
