[Honey]

Despite himself, he could feel the smile lingering at the corners of his lips, and he could feel it working at the gloomy cloud around him. "They probably don't write it in books because it could be seen as blasphemy when some of the fae do good. But I wouldn't know if it were in books or not, I'm afraid I can't read." Clearing his throat he pushed the subject away before starting again. "There are the seelie who are happy faeries. They are kind, and help the humans with chores, and if you do a favor for them they return the gesture." Feeling the smile return, he shifted ever so slightly in an effort not to jostle the Prince from his backside. "They come out when the sun sets and only a twinkle of twilight remains in the air, since it is hard to see them then. They like to keep their prizes to themselves, so they have to hide in order to keep it safe." Bringing his hands forward into the shadow of a bush, he mimicked finding a small piece of treasure hidden among the darkly colored leaves. "The unseelie are the bad faeries, always looking for revenge against humans, even if nothing was done to them first. They arrive in the middle of the night, when all under God's zenith is dark, so they can tease, and influence travelers do do things against their will. They pull them into the air, and steal their things, and will frame the traveling ragamuffins for deeds they would have never done, like shooting farmer's livestock." Briefly and quickly he moved his hands across his chest and face and made the Lord's signs. "There are the lone traveling fae as well. They have no particular alignment, though most are inclined to be mean to people. that is, most except for the brownie. They is a delightful creature that will help women with their household chores without asking anything for return. The last kind of fae I know of is the Changelings." His smile was replaced with a scowl, which became more visible than he'd intended as the sun started to rise well past the tops of the trees. "They take human children into their faerie realms and in exchange give the parents a bewitched doll that looks like their babe, though it dies shortly after the faeries return to their realm. When they take them into the realm they make them age quickly, becoming adults so they can be their slaves. Working for them as though they are worth as little as a bent penny...Though, you can keep them away by laying iron beside the child's crib. The smell of the metal, and more so the touch of it repels them like smoke sends biting insects away."
