“Where are you from?”

Rowan shrugged, casting her gaze about the room.  The chamber seemed much less foreboding with a little girl sitting on the yew throne.  “The Green Court, just like any other green fae.”

“What are green fae?”

The elf turned back to Faeryn, who was looking off in another direction.  “Green fae are fae – elves, huldrefolk, selkies, and the like – that are bound to the forest by nature.  The Green Court is our kingdom.”  Of course, the green was also quite literal, though Rowan’s glamour presented a more human appearance over her more alien natural visage.

“Are there other kinds of fae?” the girl asked, still staring off elsewhere.

“Yes,” Rowan answered.  She was somewhat bemused by the girl’s distraction.  “There are red fae, which are tied to fire; blue fae, which are tied to water; black fae, which are tied to the earth; and white fae, which are tied to air.”

“And all of them have a court?”

“All of them.”
