five rules to interacting with faeries

aviafeya:

the first is be aware that names have power. give yourself a nickname or give no name at all.

the second is do not accept anything edible from a faery. to eat from the lands of fae is to lock yourself from the land of mortals.

the third is regarding information. if a faery gives you information, do not thank them. you may say you appreciate their assistance, but thanking is tantamount to admitting a debt owed.

the fourth is about accepting gifts. be very cautious when doing so. many gifts will have unforeseen side effects. if a gift is offered, accept it, but if you do not trust the one who offered it, do not hesitate to destroy it. salt water is always a good cleanser.

the fifth is how to speak without offense. most fae are very old. this means propriety is very important. grudges can be held for centuries when you live millenia. if you do not wish to do something, the way you refuse is critical. be polite. anything less may land you in hot water.

Compendium of Light: Songs I Once Sang

Are you going to Midsummer Fire Festival?

Firebloom, Dreaming Glory, Bloodthistle, and Peacebloom

Remember me to one who lives there.

They were once a true love of mine.

Tell her to make me a silken robe

(In Eversong on a hill in the deep forest green)

Firebloom, Dreaming Glory, Bloodthistle, and Peacebloom

(Tracing of a fading memory where the weeds choke out a grey stone)

With no seems nor needle work

(Fading magic shooes the weeds away.)

Then they’ll be a true love of mine

(Beneath the stone my child sleeps, unaware of the passing world.)

Tell them to find me unscarred land

(In Eversong, on a hill in the deep forest green,)

Firebloom, Dreaming Glory, Bloodthistle, and Peacebloom.

(Washes the grey gravestone with tears from above)

Between the sea and the Dead Scar

(A mage cleans and polishes his sword)

Tell her to plant seeds for me

(War comes again and again, earth stained red.)

Firebloom, Dreaming Glory, Bloodthistle, and Peacebloom.

(Once again we head out.)

And to gather it all to rest upon a grey stone in Eversong.

(To fight for something we are too tired to recall)

Then they’ll be a true love of mine

Are you going to Midsummer Fire Festival?

Firebloom, Dreaming Glory, Bloodthistle, and peacebloom

Remember me to one who lives there

Once they were a true love of mine.


There lived a couple in Tranquillen

A wealthy couple were they

They had three stoic and stalwart children

And watched them go o’er the sea

They had not been gone from Tanquillen

A year but barely gone

When word came to the couple

That their three children were gone

“I wish the rain might never ever end.

Nor the Dead Scar heal

Until our three children return to us

In flesh and blood

Flesh and Blood”

It fell about during Winter’s Veil

The night had grown long and dark

Three children came to Tranquillen

Their hearts had no spark

Their skin was a pale corpse green

Never seen among the living

But from those that have seen the other side

And returned to Azeroth.

“Turn on the mage lights, my merry merry friends.

Bring the only bottle of arc wine from the cellar

For all of Tranquillen will feast this night

Since our children are returned to us.”


Then a low cry came through the night

And up rose the children

The oldest to the youngest said

“Its time we were away-

“For the one who brought us back calls.

And though our hearts long for home

We must go when Sylvanas calls

Wherever it may lead.”


“We wish the rain may never stop.

Nor the Dead Scar may heal.

Until our three children return to us.

In flesh and blood

Flesh and Blood.”


Was listening to some pagan songs and liked how they fit though I’m not very good with altering them properly.
