In a mythical land, fairies visit children at night and leave them pearls. But each fairy is attracted only to a particular color. Suppose, for example, that a fairy named Liane is attracted to the color aqua. While making her nightly visitations, she will leave a pearl on a child's bedside table for each aqua star she sees above the child's head. If a fairy named Ariana, who is attracted to crimson, flies with Liane and sees a child with a crimson star, she will leave a pearl on the child's table. So a child having both crimson and aqua stars would receive two pearls. Your task is to find out which fairy is attracted to which color.
