Jester
Jester must be the oddest earth faerie ever. For one, he's male. Secondly, he never seems to care about the tree he's bonded to. Quite frankly, he's trouble. However, one day, he met this little boy named Hunkie, and had a decent chat with him. After making the boy laugh a few times, the boy started to call him Jester, and the name stuck. The boy told him that while being bonded to a tree must have been boring to him and the other faeries, he could cheer them up with jokes. That way, he wouldn't be called worthless. Now, Jester cares for his tree, he knows that if it dies, he perishes also, and his jokes perish with him. As for his old name? It's doubted he can remember it, it wouldn't matter anyway. Because, Jester is his name now. ----
Jester smiled at the happy scene laid out before him. The earth faeries were playing tag again. They couldn't stray to far from the forest, but that was ok, the forest was amazingly large. Jester sat down at the base of his tree," Do you ever believe that I'll meet that boy again?" The tree said nothing, it's pink flowers moving ever so slightly. Jester smiled," Well then, I guess I have to keep living until the day he comes back."
