Tinkerbell And The Pirate Fairy -

Zarina smashed the vial against Hook’s hook.

Zarina was a Dust-Keeper, one of the most respected fairies in Pixie Hollow. Her job was to mix and grind the magical pollen that allowed fairies to fly, artists to paint, and light-talent fairies to glow.

But Zarina looked at Tink. Tink nodded.

She called it the Sapphire Gale.
