"Have you? Not so. Everyone is happy here," said the King of the Fay. "And it is our way to keep those here who act in certain ways. It is how it has always been. It is our fate to tempt the unwary, the unwise and the greedy."

"I have seen it many times. It intrigues me - or rather, its people do - but it does not fill me with wonder. My own world is so much brighter and pleasanter."

"A human heart is a strange thing to the Fay. You think and act differently to us. And love differently too. We have immortality but you have something we don't. A greater capacity to love."

"Not in the ways of men. We make love but that is a thing of the flesh. We can care for others but it is not in our nature to love just one other so we do not have that...closeness that you humans may feel for one another."

Dina thought on how to phrase the answer "Well I love my family such as my brothers and parents, I love a man who I want to love me and I love another but not in the same way, it is complex an hard to explain."

"I see. I was speaking only of sexual love," he replied. "This bond of family is something different and specific to you humans. We of the Fay think of ourseles as one big family. So...you love two men to whom you are not related, but you feel differently about them?"
