Heroes since Childhood

Here's a quick summary on each stage:

Childhood: While little Rayman had to save the Electoons and the Protoon from Mr. Dark in his home valley (pressumeably before he came to be in the Glade of Dreams), Faye (being a toddler) accidentally entered a time portal conjured by both the Aurora Nymphs (her mentors) and the Pixies. The time portal led Faye in the past from the creation of the Glade to how her parents met. However, Faye certainly wouldn't remember all that.

Pre-Adolescence: This occurred during the events of Rayman 2.  At the time the Robo-Pirates invaded the Glade, Faye was apparently banished after informing this crisis to the Sage Sprite Council, because it was prohibited for a sprite to have personal contact in the Glade of Dreams (reasons for now remained unknown).  Unfortunately, Razorbeard's wife, Razabelle raided the Glade of Aurora as a perfect place for her carnivorous plants.  Like Rayman, Faye returned home to save her people as well as helping the Guardian Sprites vanquish Razabelle's force once and for all.  However, unlike Rayman, who was praised as a hero, Faye was still shunned for her constant secret visits in the Glade for years and only few (including the Guardian Sprites) appreciated her courageous assistance.

Adolescence: Takes place a few years after Rayman 2 and during the events of Rayman 3. In the midst of the Hoodlum Skirmish, Faye was a couple of months shy of her graduation as a Guardian Sprite.  Her first adventure as a Rookie (not counting her secret visits to the Glade in a Rookie Sprite's log) occurred when she was separated from her two friends, Lawry and Meep and instead landed on the planet Kilamorea where she would encounter Razorbeard's ambitious niece, Razarlass.  Faye (alongside her bird friend, Ray) had joined a group of misfit pirates that would give her a passage back home to the Glade of Aurora.  After defeating both Razarlass and her uncle Razorbeard (thus freeing the captured fairies and Ray's kind), Faye safely returned to the Glade and graduates as a Guardian Sprite. 

Early Adulthood: After many years since they once met as preteens, Faye and Rayman would meet once more.  The rest is set to be a new chapter and adventure for both.
