To say that all mortals are manipulative and treacherous is untrue. Most of them are too stupid to achieve either characteristic. There are a few, however, that excel in these behaviors.
I remember Dillon Yates from my youth. He and his cousin, Dan, constantly tried to trick and deceive me. My slower-witted kinsman, Knotch, was often taken in by them; I just developed a strong dislike for these two bumbling humans. Since they were grandsons of the great wise-woman, Anna Mae, I had to let them live.
Recently, these two have surfaced again and claim to be time travelers from Civil War days. Now they are pitted against each other as only these dim-witted mortals can be. They are on opposite sides of the water crisis. Dan is in league with my misguided kin, who call themselves the Light Fey and want to save nature, the water and the world.
As leader of the more enlightened Dark Fey, I want to control the water and sell it at a huge profit. At first, I aligned with the warlock Dillon, thinking he could be useful. Later I had to press charges against him in Fey Court. I then found that another member of that accursed family, young Anna, is more powerful than any of the others. She spoke for Dillon and the case went against me. This young girl bears watching.
