Reverie Friends 'Windy Hill' Episode 95 | The Dream-Hunting Fairy

Little Bird
"The Dream-Hunting Fairy"

Here we go~

Little Bird
Once upon a time,
there was a fairy who hunted and
stole the dreams of
animals and plants.

That fairy was known as
"the Dream-Hunting Fairy".

Many of the animals who had their dreams stolen
gave up on their dreams.

Monkey
What a jerk!

I'll catch him and
get rid of him!

Panda
Now, now, calm down.

It's just a "folktale".

Monkey
Sorry,
I got a bit excited.

Please continue...

Little Bird
Eventually,
those who were angry like the monkey gathered
and formed a vigilante group.

To hunt down the fairy.

Monkey
Yeah!

Go get 'em!

Don't lose!

Panda
Hey, just
calm down.

Monkey
Yeah,
my bad, my bad!

Little Bird
"The vigilante group
drove the fairy away,
and succeeded in exterminating it."

"As if accepting its fate,
the fairy
quietly vanished."

"Leaving behind a sorrowful expression."

Monkey
"Yes!"

"Serves it right!"

Little Bird
"From then on,
quiet days continued."

"No bad things happened."

"Just days with nothing happening."

Monkey
"It was a happy ending!"

Ant
"Up to this point, anyway."

"Isn't there still
more to come?"

Little Bird
"Yes, there is."

Spider
"Please continue."

Little Bird
"One such day."

"Deep in the mountains,
a small, unfamiliar hut
was found."

“As the vigilantes
cautiously entered,”

“there,
the stolen dreams were
each carefully
stored away.”

Monkey
“Oh!”

“A fairy’s hut!?”

“Get the dreams back!”

Little Bird
“They were, it seems, kept
very carefully.”

“The bear wondered,
and looked around.”

“Then, he noticed
a 'fulfilled dream'
placed on the desk.”

“The one meant to be delivered to him...”

Monkey
“Huh?”

“What does this mean?”

Spider
“Does this mean the fairy
wasn't stealing dreams after all...”

“If that’s the case,
how unfortunate...”

Ant
“So it’s a
'Dream-Borrowing Fairy'?”

Monkey
“Explain it to me.”

Ant
“Borrowing dreams to fulfill them and then returning them, that was the fairy’s 'job' after all...”

Monkey
“What is this!?”

“Does this mean the fairy
wasn't a bad guy after all!?”

“That’s just too much...”

Panda
“A sad story,
born from a misunderstanding...”

Little Bird
The animals pitied and cherished the fairy.

To preserve that sentiment for future generations, they built a shrine.

And so, they named the shrine the "Dream-Reaping Shrine," and day after day, they offered prayers with great care.

The end.
