One of the most famous faerie islands is Avalon, the land of legendary King Arthur. He was crowned by the faeries, and brought to their island so his wounds could be mended. (by four faeire queens) Aruthur is believed to lie in the heart of a faerie hill in a deep sleep with his knights.
:::Whats it Look Like:::
Faeryland can seem to human eyes bright and glittering, and as you approach it and at last step upon its warm shores, it sadly disappears. Inside this enchanted land though, there live many types of faeries and elves.
One of the types of elves is the Tree Elf. They make their homes in the forests or trees. They also live on and in hills, mountain caves, and fields. Faeries also inhabit the seas, lakes, and rivers in Faeryland.
:::Faery Hills:::
Each hill has its own Queen and King, but they usually owe respects to a "High King." The best known of these "High Kings" is Oberon who rules over Old Oak Forest with his queen Titiania.
Forts, barrows, and earthworks are common faerie homes. People are strongly cautioned not to invade these homes though. Faeries dont take trespassing lightly. Although they dont mind discreet observation.
These places are also used for hiding gold, as well as burial grounds for faeries.
