"I thought Fairies were nice"

"Shows what you know"

 

I blame the Victorians. They're the ones who promoted the cutesy image people have of Faeries. The old legends tell a very different story.

From the late great Terry Pratchett

 

Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder.
Elves are marvellous. They cause marvels.
Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies.
Elves are glamorous. They project glamour.
Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment.
Elves are terrific. They beget terror.
The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.
No one ever said elves are nice.
Elves are bad. (LL)
