Once upon a time, there was a foolish Fairy King who let pride and spite guide his thinking. As punishment for his impudence and betrayal, his clan condemned him to human form and charged him with the task of earning the trust of a single mortal. With but one year to achieve his goal, he was banished to the present-day world to seek his deliverance. There, he fell in love with the daughter of the only man who could send him home.From the age of early myth to our modern era, Fairies have inhabited a magical niche in the human imagination. Through "The Fairy s Tale", the journey and musings of little Frisque provide a keen insight into the true purpose of these magical imps.
