She goes to her to see if she can help save the Pixie Dust Tree from the freeze by covering it with frost. When Tinker Bell realizes that the flower that Periwinkle wrapped in frost is still alive, she knew that if Periwinkle and other frost fairies could cover the Pixie Dust Tree could be saved.
Tink and her friends destroy the snow maker, but the damage is already done: Pixie Hollow, knocked off its natural balance, begins to freeze over. The next day, the warm regions of Pixie Hollow begin to freeze over when the abandoned snow maker grates ice from the Winter Woods that fell into it. The snow is moving toward the Pixie Dust Tree (note the snow covering the trees in the background) Because broken wings cannot be fixed, Queen Clarion created the rule to keep other fairies from suffering the same fate. Queen Clarion, having heard that a cool fairy had crossed over, arrives and agrees with Lord Milori's declaration - and states that the rule against crossing the border was in fact her own: after a fairy had crossed the border to be with a lover, the temperature change had broken that fairy's wing. Peri's wings recover, and Milori announces that Tinker Bell and Periwinkle are forbidden from seeing each other again. Periwinkle is rushed back to the border, where they are met by Lord Milori. Peri meeting Tink's friends for the first time.Īt first the tour goes well, but when the ice runs out and Periwinkle is exposed to warm temperatures, her wings begin to wrinkle and wilt. They decide that if they bring Periwinkle to Queen Clarion, the queen will change the ruling and allow them to be together. Periwinkle meets Tinker Bell's friends, and Rosetta gifts her with a periwinkle flower, which she wraps in a sphere of frost to keep it from wilting. This machine creates a small cold zone that Periwinkle can stay in and keep cool while touring the warm parts of Pixie Hollow. Tinker Bell later returns with a machine designed to make "snow" by grating a block of ice. Periwinkle thinks that this will be goodbye, but Tinker Bell privately lets her know that she has a plan, and tells her what she needs to do to make her plan work. Dewey takes Tinker Bell back to the border. They are rescued by Dewey riding his lynx Fiona, and Dewey decides that it really is too dangerous for Tinker Bell to remain. However, the campfire Tinker Bell made to keep herself warm damages the ice that Periwinkle's house is on, and the whole thing collapses. Tink and Peri heartbroken at the prospect of never seeing each other again.
Periwinkle takes Tinker Bell on a tour of the woods, where Tink meets Peri's friends, bubbly Gliss and sarcastic Spike, and then to her home, where they discover that their tastes are virtually identical. Dewey, unwilling to split up the sisters so soon, tells Periwinkle that although he was ordered to take Tink home, Lord Milori didn't say when. Shortly thereafter, Lord Milori arrived to speak to Dewey about his suspicions that a warm fairy had crossed into the Winter Woods and commanded Dewey to send any warm fairy who had crossed home. Tink meeting Gliss and Spike for the first time. There, they learn that the sparkle is a phenomenon that occurs when two fairies born of the same laugh draw close to each other, thus meaning Periwinkle and Tinker Bell are sisters! At this time Tinker Bell, looking for answers to the same question, comes into the library. Not knowing what could be causing the shimmer, she goes to ask Dewey, the keeper of fairy knowledge, about it at the Winter Woods library. Periwinkle ventures out to the border between Autumn and Winter to watch the animals crossing, where her wings start to sparkle.
