To Exceed Her Reach

by Rebecca M. Senese

For some time, the only excitement on Galala’s patrol of the glade remains her stuffy nose. Who ever heard of a faerie with allergies?

Then the rumble of an arriving vehicle interrupts the peace of the afternoon. Who dares trespass against the faeries? It has been years since an incursion.

Years since a group of children disturbed Galala’s patrol.

Years since she made a bargain with one of them. Who now returns to fulfill it in a way Galala’s never imagined. To travel where Galala never dreamed.

Discover the result of Galala’s bargain in "To Exceed Her Reach," a contemporary fantasy story.
