Three Wishes for the Amber Lord

They say that on the night of Hollan-Tide, if you walk along the enchanted paths, you can find the true essence sleeping within. I, a simple mortal girl, took an desperate step—and almost immediately paid for my audacity. On the way to my dream, I was stopped: I fell into a trap set by a hungry spider-like fairy. Perhaps that day would have been my last, if the higher fairy lord hadn’t intervened.

He agreed to pull me out of trouble, but set a condition: I must fulfill his three wishes. It seemed like less evil than being eaten by a spider-mother, and I had no choice. If only I had understood what I was getting myself into! Mother wasn’t wrong when she said it’s better not to have dealings with the higher ones—costs you dearly. But there’s no going back. I’ll have to keep my word, even if the fairy’s requests look impossible. Ahead are new trials, and I’m ready to step toward them, trying not to think that the price of a mistake could be deadly.
