Frozen Fantasy

These gnomes.. they used to be real.
They tend to keep secrets less than private. One day, a boy who was interested in magic and fantasy came across a small gnome, hiding in the forest. Once he gained her trust, he confided in her to keep a secret. Not knowing the disloyal nature of gnomes, he found out she told his secret to the whole forest. Knowing a tad bit of magic, he followed the gnomes and all the forest creatures who knew his secret until he could freeze them all into mere little statues. This sucked the life and beauty from them.. and now they're frozen in time, displayed in the middle of the woods for all the people to see, no one knowing the story behind these cheap-looking statues.. displayed like puppets in a little box.
