Cornelia

Cornelia is a Fairy; a resident of the Unreality between the realm of mortals (called the Overworld, by the fairies) and whatever realm lies adjacent. In this space between spaces (called the World of Dreams by mortals who know, or think they know, of it), Cornelia is attending her first year of schooling at the Font of Dreams, the school where qualifying fairies are trained to act as Magical Assistance to mortals in the Overworld. 

Hardworking, sweet, and earnest, Cornelia has no trouble making friends at the academy -- even friends that other fairies may consider undesirable. She quickly becomes an advocate for the school's first ever transfer students, magical beings called Djenai, who have notoriously conflicted with mortals and fairies alike for centuries. Its hard work, attending to her school work, acting as an ambassador of goodwill to the djenai, keeping the peace between them and the fairies and dealing with the mysterious flareups of power which begun late into her first semester at school, but if there's anyone with the head to do it, it's Cornelia!
