Introduction

Hello, everyone. It's time for me 
to continue tales of The Sims of the          
New World. If you have missed the 
last stories and don't know what has          
already happened, no problem. Simply

     Recently, I've told you  stories of what
those first few years were like for the
Fae and the Neofae after JyM was sent
away for a thousand years by her brother,
The Supreme Being.  The NeoFae are 
finding their own place on Gaia just fine,
the Orange Fae have found love and have
started families, and a few more Fae have
evolved from Orange to Blue.  Oh, and human 
kind, the children of the Supreme Being, have
finally arrived on Gaia.  Things got very 
interesting in the last story.

Although Crystal has tried very hard to
become the most important Fae with her
sisters and "the false ones", some of her attempts
at total control have failed.  But, things are
about to change for Crystal.

The weather was always constant in the little region of Gaia where 
the Fae and the Neo Fae lived.  Their mother, the Goddess JyM, made 
sure of that when she created the Fae and placed them on the piece of 
Gaia that her brother had given her as her own.  

Yet, Crystal had seen rain in the tropical regions of Gaia, and snow and ice on her northern point.

This precipitation from the atmosphere had always intrigued Crystal. She had noticed a long time ago that the rain, snow and ice were all made up of simple water. She also became aware that the water from the sky was sometimes warm, but often cool, and sometimes frozen. It fell from the sky to help nourish Gaia and to replenish her many streams, rivers, lakes and the great oceans. In some places, it is a constant condition, with very little time between each occurrence. And it fell on Gaia almost everywhere, but never in her homeland.

And with the cool and frozen water came a change in Gaia, Crystal noted. It was this change that interested Crystal the most.

Crystal could not control Gaia. She knew this instinctively and had never even tried to do so. But, imitating Gaia was something different. And imitating what fell onto Gaia was also, most definitely, something different.

For months, she practiced and practiced in the privacy of her personal rest area, until she achieved what she wanted. And when the time was right, when she became utterly annoyed with her Orange sisters and their loving husbands and their little families living in their little separate spaces, she began to slowly cool the temperature of the entire area where the Children of JyM resided.
