Find out about the magical adventures of Flame, Marina, Ash & Ariel
In the gently undulating countryside of North Norfolk is a huge, mysterious house, with rolling grounds. This is Sprite Towers, the home of the Sprite family (click on the map to view). Magic runs through the Sprite family, but not all of it is good and nobody knows who has it. Unknown to their parents, the four Sprite Sisters each has a magical power that relates to one of the elements of Fire, Water, Earth & Air (See the Circle of Power below).
When little Ariel gains her power of Air on her ninth birthday, dark forces are soon at work to hurt the sisters. The Sprite Sisters must work together and balance their power, to keep themselves and Sprite Towers safe from harm.
Flame is 13 and has the power of Fire. Her favourite season is Spring and her favourite time of the day is morning. Flame has the ability to see ahead, to see things that are going to happen. She is the sister who usually works out how to get the Sprite Sisters out of a tight spot. She loves reading, sport and playing the violin. Flame has a lot of courage, but also a firey temper. She likes to discuss new ideas and ways of thinking. When she grows up, she will be a writer.
Marina is 12 and has the power of Water. Her favourite season is Summer and she is most relaxed in the afternoon. Marina has a big heart. She is warm, playful and friendly and loves talking to her friends. She trusts people and has a lot of empathy. She is a lively girl and loves to perform - singing and dancing. When she grows up, she will be an actress or a singer.
She plays the viola.
Ash is 10 and has the power of Earth. When things get difficult between the sisters, it is Ash who is the balance and calms things down. The quietest and most patient sister, she thinks deeply about things. She plays the cello and loves to be outside. She is very close to her father and spends a lot of time in the garden with him, growing the vegetables. When she grows up, Ash will be a doctor or an environmental scientist. She likes the evening time and the Autumn.
Ariel is 9 and has the power of Air. She is the naughtiest of the sisters and is always getting in to trouble. She likes to daydream and has her ‘head in the clouds’. There is always has a story going on in Ariel’s head, but often she surprises her family with her wisdom and clear insight. She likes the night, when she can dream some more and is happiest in the Winter, particularly when it snows. When she grows up, she will be an artist, a musician or a teacher. She plays the flute and loves her animals.
