̇·٠•●Once, fairies, majestic winged beings, lived alongside humans, and their half-breed children, masters of disguise, were a bridge between worlds. But the golden age gave way to exile, and the fairies became legend. The half-breed race was thought extinct.

This is a lie.

Anriaktar is the last exile, a child of two worlds, wingless but not powerful. Behind the guise of an elegant man named Anri Holm, he conceals his true identity: a pale giant with claws, double rows of teeth, and amber eyes. His age-old yearning for home and belonging finds purpose when, in an ancient Irish forest, he discovers a lost mortal—fragile, stubborn, and incredibly alluring.●•٠· ̇

From the diaries of Dr. Alban Crowley, Oxford anthropologist. October, 1952.

These notes must be destroyed. Anyone who dismisses them as the ravings of a madman would be right in their own way. But I must leave a warning. Our notions of fairies—those ridiculous postcards of tiny maidens on flowers—are a most dangerous delusion. I know. I have seen what few see and from which few return.

Over the past five years, I have pieced together stories that the government wrote off as "disappearances due to natural phenomena" or "attacks by wild animals." They all had common features: ancient forests, especially in Ireland and Scotland, strange weather anomalies, and... time. Everything happened at the junction of day and night, at twilight.

Their forest is not a cluster of trees. It's a living, breathing organism, imbued with an alien consciousness. Faerie magic isn't some magical pass, it's the very nature of this place, turned against humanity. A compass is useless there. The needle dances as if possessed. Paths twist into spirals leading nowhere. Trees shift when you turn away. This isn't a metaphor. The forest refuses to let you go. It studies you. And this is merely a tool of its true masters.

They watch. Every victim I've spoken to (the few who were found, but whose sanity was beyond saving) described the same thing: a feeling of a gaze from the thicket. A whisper, like the rustling of leaves. They don't attack immediately. No. First, they catalog you.

They imitate. One poor wretch, a shepherd from County Kerry, said he heard his late mother's voice calling to him from a clearing for three days. Another saw his missing dog leading him deeper into the thicket. They copy our voices, our mannerisms, our appearance, to lure us in, to lure us in. They are the perfect mimic predators. They learn to be us, and therein lies their greatest danger.

And then... then comes the end. I didn't see it myself, but I heard... sounds. And I found places. Bones. And not just broken, but... cleaned. To a shine. As if they had been licked with sandpaper. No traces of predators' teeth, no marks from tools. As if the flesh had simply evaporated.

My conclusion, which cost me my peace and my reputation, is this: the fairy forest is a trap. Fairies are not good spirits or evil demons. They are cold, arrogant collectors. First, they collect your mannerisms, your memories, your voice. They experiment on you, watching how you struggle, how you cry, how you pray. And then they harvest your life force, your flesh. They absorb the very essence of who you were.

So my advice, if it ever comes in handy: don't go into the old forests at dusk. If you get lost and the trail starts acting unnaturally, run. But most importantly, don't trust anyone's voice in the thicket. Not even your own. Because by the time you hear it, you'll already be watched. And the dinner menu will already be planned.
