The realm of fairy-story is wide and deep and high and filled with many things:
all manner of beasts and birds are found there; shoreless seas and stars uncounted; beauty that is an enchantment and an ever-present peril; both joy and sorrow as sharp as swords. In that realm a man may, perhaps, count himself fortunate to have wandered, but its very richness and strangeness tie the tongue of a traveler who would report them. And while he is there it is dangerous for him to ask too many questions lest the gates should be shut and the keys be lost. |

During the in-between times when day fades into night or Spring melts into Summer and at the in-between places where paths converge, a veil is parted between the worlds and one may enter The Otherworld. The World of Faerie, but use much caution, dear one! For you have entered the faery crossing, and none return unchanged.

o
Come up here, O dusty feet! Here is fairy bread to eat. Here in my retiring room, children, you may dine. On the golden smell of broom, and the shade of pine; and when you have eaten well, fairy stories hear and tell.
Robert Louis Stevenson

o
All causes shall give way: I am in blood. Stepp’d in so far that, should I wade no more, returning were as tedious as go o’er.
William Shakespeare
