Faes of The Forbidden Forest

Fairies are generally described as human in appearance and having magical powers. Their origins are less clear in the folklore, being variously dead, or some form of demon, or a species completely independent of humans or angels.[3] Folklorists have suggested that their actual origin lies in a conquered race living in hiding,or in religious beliefs that lost currency with the advent of Christianity.These explanations are not necessarily incompatible, and they may be traceable to multiple sources.
