Meet Fiona. Even in the Otherworld a young punk can’t find love at home and has to look for it in the world at large.

As I mentioned a few posts back, Yeats cautions: “Do not think the fairies are always little. Everything is capricious about them, even their size.” Which is why Fiona, a pixie, is so much bigger than the rest of her adopted troop, whom she meets in the final panel here.

As always I am mixing and sorting for my own storytelling needs, in this case blending the Scottish divisions of Seelie and Unseelie courts with the Irish divisions of Trooping and Solitary fairies. One is a matter of class, the other a matter of cultural disposition. And there is always fluidity among them.
