Lion Head Mesa Sacrificial chamber

The faeries were known for taking unwanted or lost children and raising them as their own. Children were a life-force, innately good-willed and innocent. They were the perfect fit for a faerie court, there was no doubt about it - and the boy seemed especially promising. He carried the same eyes she did - owed her his life, though she'd never use it against him. Even if the boy wanted to return to wherever he had come from, Lumi would've tried to convince him to come with her because they were good and just, and the girl was awfully charismatic.

She smiled at his comment. I'm sure you will. She responded, no trace of mockery or sarcasm in her voice. Confidence should be encouraged - she wouldn't want him to turn out like her. She the began padding, making sure the boy was at her side - They ran into Loinnir not long after. The bird had waited patiently, but was eager to get going again. He eyed the boy for a moment, but Loinnir had a soft spot for children.
