Prologue Summary

There are many ways to make a wish. A person can wish on birthday candles or dandelion fluff, but only if they blow them all in one breath. They can wish on a coin tossed into a well or fountain. Or they can wish on a star or the larger part of a wishbone. However, wishes are competitive, and not all of them come true. There is not enough magic for everyone.

Chapter 1 Summary

Ophelia Delphinium Fidgets is a “Granter,” a fairy who grants wishes. She graduated at the top of her class almost a year ago. However, Ophelia has not had the opportunity to grant any wishes yet. She is meticulous and likes things to be just right. She straightens her neat uniform and polishes her wings while waiting for her colleague and friend, Charlie Rhododendron Whistler.

Chapter 2 Summary

A fairy’s middle name comes from the plant that birthed them. They share some characteristics with these plants. For instance, redwood fairies are usually tall and strong. Ophelia, who comes from a blue delphinium flower, has blue hair. A fairy’s last name comes from their Founder. Founders are fairies who bring newborn fairies from the outside world, which is full of humans and predators, to the Haven.
