The Ever is the name given to the leader of the Woodland fairies of the Emerald Forest.
When the call for a quest happens The Ever sends out the purple loons to give short loud cries through the forest and around Rabbit Lake. This will summon the entire community of woodland fairies.
Once everyone has arrived a firefly is given to the head of each family. The Ever has enchanted these fireflies so no one can alter what will happen next.
Each of the fifteen families take their firefly home and hold the ceremony of light. All family members who are done with school write their name on the family crest that hangs on the main tree for their family. The firefly is let go and it flies over and lands on a name. This fairy will be the one to go on the quest. This fairy now has the title of “Light.” The decision is final. No one is allowed to back out.
Afterwards the Light takes the firefly back to The Ever. The Lights take an oath to do what is necessary to protect and defend against all enemies or outsiders wishing to cause harm to any woodland fairy. The community blesses all the Lights.
Each family has a role to play in getting these fifteen and The Ever ready for their quest. They are helped out of their regular clothes and armor and protective gear is put on. Jewelry or any other unnecessary accessories are taken off. Hair and beards are either cut or tied back. The Lights receive special swords and other equipment or supplies they might need from the community.
These fifteen know they might not come back. They have been chosen to go and find the young beast Nayeria or as the fairies call her Black Death. Nayeria has already killed one of their own.
