"Before the Fall: An Air Faerie Story" by darigankat
I like to reminisce sometimes, about my life before the tragedy, when I was Baelia, the air faerie with the bright future. I'd been doing so well. I was one of the youngest faeries to be recommended to the Faerieland Elevator System (or FES). It wasn't so much that I thought weather and quest duties were beneath me—I just found the idea of floating the clouds that allowed faeries access to Neopia intriguing. The Elevator System had been around for over ten years, after a very young faerie almost plummeted into the Maraquan Sea trying to reach Neopia using only her underdeveloped wings. Since then, the Elevator had been running, getting faeries to and from Neopia daily. It was one of the few faerie duties that was exclusive to a certain type of faerie. I felt so proud every time I saw the posters of the air faeries raising the clouds. The Elevator System Training application requirements had two courses that I was not looking forward to. Advanced Weather Control and Advanced Air Magic were both taught by the same air faerie, Professor Avaray. I remember showing up to my first day of Advanced Air Magic, shyly sitting near the back, not talking to any of my fellow students.

5 Gross Foods That Are Borderline Delicious
There is a certain stigma surrounding items in the category of Gross Food here in the world of Neopia – that they’re, well, gross. Although some meals within the category certainly do fit the description (I’m looking at you, Chocolate Fish Pop Milkshake!), others are grotesquely misunderstood. Some, in reality, are actually quite delectable!
