This could have been just another grim faery tale, were it not for the characters inhabiting this particular story.
It certainly can be said that the Fey are no strangers to gloom and the knife-twists of history. They have seen tragedy and struggle from early existence and suffered alongside their mortal brothers who repeatedly birthed and fell.
Throughout, their natures were buoyant, and cheerfulness was maintained with an ineffable optimism - that same cosmic currency that drives and inspires Nature to thrive. The thoughts of Man build future worlds, whilst the emotions of the Fey build up this, our Natural World.
-Gabriel Brunsdon, Puck in Hell, Azlander Series
