“The magic you adore is in your eyes!”
Abhishek Kumar, Stardust Family - We Are One!

“A riot of transparent blue flowers grew up the side of a tree, reaching its highest branches and sending tendrils of milky blue to nearby trees. A net made of tiny lilac-hued blossoms crawled over the moss, snaking into the patterns of the bark. And overhanging the path, where two branches came close to touching each other, a canopy that looked as though it must have been made of downy feathers, if feathers could be diluted into something like a cloud. It was eerily strange, yet so beautiful.
"Who made this?" she murmured, tracing a blossom of syrup gold suspended by a streamer from something not unlike a willow tree. "Did you?"
"No one made it," the girl answered. "It is just--- this place. It takes what is given from your world and uses it."
"The whole world---the world does this magic?"
"What is magic?" The girl lifted her finger and beckoned Delphine. She pulled a thread from the red broadcloth. "Where did this come from?"
"It's wool, the fibers from a sheep. It's cut off, and spun, and woven, and---"
"Sheep. Where did 'sheep' come from?"
Delphine paused. "I--- I suppose from some wild animal, domesticated many years ago."
"Ah. A wild animal. A creature, begot from--- what? Its dam and sire?" She shook her head. "Now that is magic. And your plants--- they sprout, from seeds in the ground? That, too, is magic." She tested the thread between her fingers, rolling it--- no, Delphine saw with wonder, stretching it. It became thin under her fingers, flat like a ribbon, and lengthened, the color washing from scarlet to pink to palest apple blossom as the single thread became two yards long and the girl wrapped it around the crown of her head, binding her wheat-sheaf hair.
"And that is what we call magic.”
Rowenna Miller, The Fairy Bargains of Prospect Hill
