Welcome to Gaia! ::

On a bright morning, when there was a light rain, I went outside. Winnie came, too. I now knew about nymphs and how to summon one that fits you personally. "You're about to get a little sister, Winnie," I whispered to my first nymph. Then I faced the sky, and closed my eyes, enjoying the cool rain on my face. I took a deep breath, then shouted, "Pastel! Pastel! Bring me my water nymph!" The rain continued. At first I thought that something went wrong, but when I opened my eyes, I saw a large, dark blue rain drop hovering in front of me. I slowly reached out to it, and when my fingertips touched the drop's cool surface, I was hit with many emotions. Joy. Love. Trust. Yet those feelings weren't mine. They were alien to my mind. I was joyful, I did feel love, and I also trusted, but those that hit me then weren't mine. I can't describe how or why I knew; I just did. Then I realized that the feelings were the raindrop's. I smiled. "Hello, Aria," I said softly, still touching my new nymph. I felt sheer pleasure pulse through my body. That was one feeling that all three of us shared. I felt it, Winnie felt it, and so did little Aria.

Aria grew quickly. She slept most of the time, but she also ate voraciously. True to her name, Aria was a great singer. She made a wooden pipe for herself and learned to play it quite well. Her eyes were mismatched and her skin was blue. She wore blue, puffy clothes like a genie's. Aria started to become troubled because she was so different from the other nymphs...
