The Ancients believed that Elementals—fairies, sprites, gnomes, and dragons—lived among us. In time, these beings became the stuff of fantasies and legends. But what if, what if they are still alive and living among us? And can only be seen by the young or the young at heart. Or what if we only hope they are still alive? But we only tell stories about them. Sometimes the Elemental interacts with people, preferably children-people or children-like adults; sometimes they interact among themselves; and sometimes, we only hope they are still alive. Here are four short stories that try to answer those questions: one each of fairies, gnomes, sprites, and dragons. If you enjoy short stories, if you enjoy fantasy, you just might enjoy this book.
