But before we go any farther, hi! My name is Aimee Alair Wilson. I was born on March 6, 2010 in Canada! My mom, May Lo Kay Wilson, and my dad, Don Tay Morris, were the best! That was ‘til I ended up in a place that we call Faraway! And yes I did say we! You would have to hear the story. So, here we go again! I walked into the structure. The inside was very plain. It was dim and dusty. There was not much really in there. I walked into the living room where there was a sofa, a rug, a painting, two sitting chairs, and an almost empty bookshelf. On the book shelf was a red book, with nothing in it. So, I decided to start writing about my adventures. I will go on! There was so much to explore about this new world I was in. So, I sat down on the dusty sofa and started to write the beginning to my adventures. After some time passed I got up and made my way to the kitchen. The kitchen had green and black tiles on the floor, and the walls were just a dark green. There were green cabinets with useful normal kitchen things. There was a stove with a tea kettle on the burner. I stood up and walked over to the dining table. The dining table had a tablecloth with dark green polka dots all over. It had four chairs all around it. I wanted to explore the rest of the house but everything went black. I had know idea what was happening. And just as I was starting to get used to the green world—Oh well.

Escape from the “No Realm” Part One Thirteen year old Avery M. Sillo did not like sitting in imperial clothing at a council meeting for two and a half hours, going on three. The Sillo Family are the Moon Elf Queen, King, Prince, and Princess. And it is the job of the imperial families to attend to the elf kingdoms and queendoms: Moon, Sun, Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. Tick, Tick, Tick. Avery had been sitting for hours and hours without his phone so as you can imagine, him being a teenager, he was very bored and tired. His vision became blurry and he was starting to lay his head down. So, he x. . . de-decided . . . to ssh-shut . . . his. . . eyes . . . and . . . What felt like an eternity later, Avery was woken up by an alarm—Woop, Woop, Woop—and his younger sister April, a young moon elf with dark skin like her brother’s, shaking him violently. “Wake UP!!!” April screamed. “Wha . . .” Avery started, but April interrupted him. “There has been an attack, and someone is outside with mom and dad! They also took the other kings and queens.” The two sprinted outside. They gasped when the two saw their mother and father dangling on a rope tied up and a portal into the No Realm, the realm where anyone and everyone loses all magic ever, and until they come out they can’t learn or practice any new magic. And who else was there hanging their parents but General Payton. “Kids, just stay back!” their mom wept. “I’d listen to the woman if you know what’s best,” General Payton said with a grin. “GET AWAY FROM THEM, YOU CREEP!!!!!!!” April said in a high pitched, shrill tone.
