Marigold Gossamerflutter
the Cinderbloom Fairy
Named for the marigold that holds a coal at its heart and the gossamer light that trembles from its petals when the wind takes it.
Power
You can coax a hidden flame from the coldest ash, and where you walk, marigolds bloom in your footprints—but each flower smolders to ember by the next dawn, leaving a scent of burnt honey.

You were pinching dead petals off a pot of marigolds on a Tuesday afternoon when a spark jumped from the orange throat of a bloom and caught the dry leaves. Instead of fire, a warm hand took yours, and the pots grew wild and golden overnight. Now every wilted stem you touch remembers how to burn bright.
