Lore
Once upon a time, when the hollow hills hummed with music, there lived among the Aos Sí a troublemaking fae named Cherp. The mounds had their feasts and songs, but only so many tales, and the faefolk would tell the same handful over and over and over. One night, Emmy, a calicrow with a thief’s talons and a cat’s curiosity, slipped out of the Otherworld and returned with a stolen human book. Cherp devoured the story in a single sitting, and it ignited a craving that the old fae tales could never satisfy again. Together, the two set out from the mounds in pursuit of more.She now resides in a pumpkin that she coaxed to the size of a cottage, where every hallway splits into more corridors and every door opens onto another. Every inch of wall, stretching on without end, is given over to bookshelves. Emmy keeps watch over them all and steals new books faster than Cherp can read them. Books are not Cherp’s only prize, though. She trades in stories, and she collects them the fae way: by bargain. Those who wander into her library and sign her contract hand over their story to be shelved among her hoard.
