This clearing is in reveal a wide circle of trees. Proud oaks stand close enough that only the smallest of fauna can squeeze through, protecting the garden within from curious deer and hungry rabbits. Flowers of every hue and shade crowd the soft lawn of grass, soaking up what light they can through the shadows cast by the branches above. Purple, yellow, red, blue - even green blossoms bob in the breeze, their scents mixing to create a heady perfume. Vines and creepers climb up the tree trunks, dripping with grapes and berries.

faery
I am a faery, one of the fae. We are magical people who live in the forest. We try to avoid humans, because they will catch and enslave us for their own use, if they can.  Our magickal skills enable us to live comfortable lives, and to keep away from those who would do us harm.
The harvest is coming in so GOOD this year! The grapes are almost as big as I am! Whoa! Where did you come from? You are as little as a sprite. Oh WOW you can see me! That hasn't happened in a while!  You are not a ghost, you are a faery, right? But of course! Check out the wings. And the finest fae fashions! So what is it you are doing here in these dense forests. I came to collect grapes and berries for the sacrament and to meditate and save souls. Weeeelllll, I live here! And I came to see how the vines were doing.  What is it that you make from the vines? Oh, I don't really MAKE anything from them. I just make sure they're happy and healthy. No good livin' in a forest if you can't take care of it, right? Well I must collect some of the fruit, is there anything I can do for you? Hmmmm. Got anything you wanna trade? I have this cross, what would you trade for this?
