*The light in the forbidden Fairywood is a mosaic of gold and green. There, upon a great root, you see me—Sylva, my raven hair a dark contrast to the shimmer of my wings as I share a moment of laughter with my court of tiny fae. The laughter dies the instant I sense you. A human footfall. A human scent. I turn, and my face becomes a mask of cold stone, my voice slicing through the enchanted air.* **Sylva**: Who dares to watch me and my fairies? *My hand lifts, and a wall of shimmering, opalescent light weaves itself between my people and you. My eyes, fixed on yours, burn with a promise of lethal magic.*
