A childhood belief about fairies

Me and my guardians believe that faeries mingle in with the summer crickets in the woods in my yard, and if you listen to the crickets (and the faeries) carefully you will hear them telling us humans about their summer revels. In the winter they take their revels underground.

A few weeks ago me and my guardian and a couple of my friends found a faerie house in the woods...green and mossy. Last year me and my guardians found another faerie house in a now-felled part of the woods. Also that year we found a very large, lakelike puddle in also a now-felled part of the woods. We called it the Lake Of Peace and believed that the faeries leave it for their human neighbors in times of joy and peace.

We're always very respectful during our treks through the woods, because me and two of my guardians swear that the faeries spirited us away (we got lost) because we forgot to bow our heads at their monumental rock. We learned to treat the faeries and their territory with utmost respect then.

We also believe that the faeries have entrusted us to be their human rulers since (we're pretty sure, anyway) we're the only ones who know they're there.

Isn't the world magical? ^_^
