My name is Marianne,
and I would like to invite you to Nidlongdir. Nidlongdir is a fairy realm I discovered in my garden.
The word Nidlongdir is the fairies'
word for the world, so they all live in Nidlongdir. There are two fractions
of fairies
in Nidlongdir; there are The Apple Fairies,
ruled from Apple Hold Castle by a king and queen. Most of the Apple Fairies
live in Leafenheim City. The other fractions
of fairies
are called the Danagonians. The Danagonians live in some underground caves. The Danagonian Fairies
are also known as the black nosed fairies.
The Danagonians fairies
have a parliament called The Gathering
where the elder elected
advisors
rule from.![]() |
| The King and queen of Nidlongdir |
It all started in the summer of 2008, when I was doing some botanical illustrations of apples in my garden. During the summer I had spend many hours under my three old apple trees in the back of my garden. Some times I had a feeling that I was being watch, and I also found things in the garden that indicated to me, that there were fairies in the neighbourhood. My first encounter with the fairies in my garden occurred in the late summer, in the morning. I was drawing on my apple illustration when I saw two fairies resting in the morning sun in the apple tree. Later I learned that it was the fairy queen and king that I had seen.
