The three good fairies of the land first appear in ''Sleeping Beauty'' at Princess Aurora's birthday celebration to bestow upon her their gifts | The three good fairies of the land first appear in ''Sleeping Beauty'' at Princess Aurora's birthday celebration to bestow upon her their gifts. Flora gives her the gift of beauty to have the gold of sunshine in her hair, lips that shame the reddest rose and that she walks with springtime wherever she goes. Fauna gives her the gift of song, melody her whole life long, nightingales and troubadours that bring sweet serenades to her door. Before Merryweather can give her a gift, Maleficent arrives and is angered that she was not invited to the celebration so she also gives a "gift" to Aurora. She curses Aurora so that before the sun sets on her 16th birthday she will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and die. After Maleficent leaves, Merryweather gives a gift to lessen the curse so that when she pricks her finger she will only fall asleep. | ||

They take her to the forest, call Aurora "Briar Rose", and act mortal in front of her. | After the party, the fairies plan to hide Aurora and keep her away from Maleficent until Aurora's 16th birthday.
