Otherworldly Goods, Chapter 2 — Page 17
And here are the rest of the squatters: Brian, Fernis, a horned witch called Mary, and Izzy with delusions of grandeur.
Brian is not a Red Cap, but the son of one, a malicious goblin who lives along among castle ruins and enjoys slaughtering anyone who crosses its path. How Brian’s dad came to reproduce is a fluke. I imagine being his son would be a real drag.
Fernis, a refugee from the war in Hades, is a dwarf who migrated, turned away from digging for gold, and set up shop in Elysium until, as he says, things went awry.
Mary is one of the Horned Women in Irish folklore. This is one of my favorite stories.
Izzy is a problem.
