flitted from branch to branch and began frosting the tree as quickly as they could. But the freeze was advancing fast.
    â€œWe should hand out the rest of the blankets and use them to protect our wings,” Tinker Bell called to Clank and Bobble.
    They began distributing blankets to all the warm-weather fairies. One by one, everyone began hurrying inside the Pixie Dust Tree. It would be warm and safe in there until the freeze passed.
    Meanwhile, up above, Periwinkle, Gliss, and Spike were growing tired.
    â€œThe tree is too big,” Spike panted. She eyed the freeze line. It was getting closer by the minute. “We’re never going to make it.”
    Just then, far off in the distance, an owl screeched. Everyone turned toward the sound. Lord Milori was flying in on his majestic snowy owl! Beside him, Dewey was perched on the back of the young owl that had first carried Tinker Bell into the Winter Woods.
    And together, they were leading an entire squadron of winter fairies toward the Pixie Dust Tree! There were hundreds of them.
    â€œLord Milori!” Periwinkle cried in astonishment.
    â€œWe’ve come to help,” the lord said in his deep voice when they landed.
    Periwinkle quickly explained how they were frosting the tree to protect it, but that the tree was too large for them to cover on their own.
    â€œUnderstood,” Lord Milori replied. He faced the army of winter fairies. “Start at the freeze line and spread out to the other seasons,” he commanded. “The rest of you, cover the tree!”
    Instantly, the winter fairies sprang into action. Sled led a group to frost the meadows and fields while Lord Milori directed the fairies blanketing the Pixie Dust Tree from atop his owl. Soon, all of Pixie Hollow was a glittering landscape of frost. When the last branch was covered, Lord Milori swooped down to the ground.
    â€œWe’ve done all we can,” he said to the frost fairies around the Pixie Dust Tree. He looked at Tink and her friends. “You must take cover.”
    The warm-weather fairies hurried inside the tree, out of the cold. But Queen Clarion remained outside a minute longer. She looked at Lord Milori and shivered. “Will everything be all right?” she asked.
    Lord Milori gazed at the queen for a long time. “I don’t know,” he answered finally. “I’ve never seen anything like this.”
    Queen Clarion shivered again. Lord Milori took off his cloak and gently placed it around her shoulders. “Please take cover,” he said to her.
    Before she left, the queen stole one more glance at the Lord of Winter. When her old friend turned, she could see his broken right wing. The legend that she had told Tinker Bell was in fact the story of her love for Lord Milori. Without another word, she joined the others in the depths of the Pixie Dust Tree to wait for the freeze to arrive.

L ord Milori and the winter fairies stood watch as the freeze took hold of Pixie Hollow. Arctic winds swept across the glades, and icy cold enveloped the fairy world. Deep inside the Pixie Dust Tree, Tinker Bell and her friends huddled together for warmth. They couldn’t see the frozen world outside, but they could hear the howling winds and feel the giant tree creaking and swaying around them.
    Darkness spread throughout Never Land.
    After a long, long while, Tinker Bell finally saw a beam of light shining in through a knothole in the tree. She peered out of her hiding place and gasped. Everything was covered in snow and ice! But the sun was shining brightly.
    Cautiously, all the fairies began to emerge from the tree. Periwinkle flew over to join Tinker Bell, and one by one, the fairies moved toward the Pixie Dust Well. They gazed in silence at the frozen stream of pixie dust that had stopped in midflow over the pool. Everyone held their breath. Had their plan worked? Was the tree saved?
    Very slowly, the sun began to melt the ice. The pixie dust began to
