The original Fairies bestowed gifts upon newborn
children such as beauty, wealth and kindness. In subsequent centuries they continued their original function, but expanded
into other types of meddling into human affairs
Fairies can only be seen clearly by animals and seldom by humans
although if you are fortunate you might catch a fleeting glimpse.
There are a few exceptions however. The first is when Fairies
use their power known as "Glamour" to enable a human to see them. Also during a full moon on midsummers eve, a mortal may
witness Fairy dances or celebrations. And finally by looking through a self bored stone (A stone in which a hole is bored
by the tumbling waters of a brook, not found on a beach) you can see Fairies distinctly
The rulers of the race of Fairies are Queen Titania
and her consort Prince Oberon
Some other names for Fairies Are:
The little people
The green men
The good folk
The lordly ones
