"Taelia’s Sick Day" by weiyannn
Taelia was cold. Ironic, given she was THE Snow Faerie. But not just that, she had come down with a cold. Which Snow Faerie gets colds?! Even under her thick wool coat, Taelia shivered. Since she couldn’t find her usual cures D’achoo, or Neoflu Jelly pills, she felt helpless. Even her magic wasn’t working like usual. She wondered if she had contracted some other sort of magical disease. Her runny nose hadn’t stopped dripping all day, and between that and the constant sneezing, she’s almost run out of tissues. She’ll need to remember to add tissue boxes to her list of items to request from eager quest-goers. But for now, she’s closed her igloo doors and turned away all Neopians who had travelled up to Terror Mountain to visit the reclusive Snow Faerie for a quest. She didn’t want anyone catching whatever she had. It had been two days of misery, coughing and sneezing. Taelia was tired. She was down to her last Neggdrop Soup, thankful for the items quest-goers had given her. But what she really wanted now was some Chicken Dumpling Soup. In the past weeks, whenever she had requested this item, Neopians never returned. Most of them cringed whenever they heard her say “Chicken Dumpling Soup”, as if they were allergic and fled Terror Mountain as soon as they turned and left. Some did return eventually, spewing apologies and begging for another quest. When she questioned them, they gave the excuse of “inflation”. How much could some soup inflate? But Taelia wasn’t going to harp on that. She was the famous Snow Faerie who specialised in alchemy.
