She looked back at Jacob. "Indeed.
We were created by the same creator as you humans(here comes storytime and lore reveal OwO).
A long, long time ago, when the world was first created, we lived in peace with the animals and humans.
Our creator gave us very important rules...
"Do not touch the exotic creatures created from the ground," he instructed.
"You may eat from and plant and all fruit EXCEPT from the centered tree," he said.
We obayed his commands, and lived in peace.
But one day, the snake entered the garden, looking for trouble.
He questioned our Creator's words...
...He tricked the human...
...and she ate from the fruit of the centered tree...
She gave some to the man, and he ate it too...
Disobeying the Creator's rules, they became covered in sin.
They saw how beautiful we were...
...and touched one of us...
...the one that was touched went crazy, and almost killed the other...
Our creator became angry...
...he banished the humans from the garden...
...he cursed the snake...
....and moved us into a secret realm... a place void of humans...
Now we live here. Hidden from the humans.
Centuries have passed, and the humans have forgotten of our existence. But we have not. We know of them, but only the royals truly remember them...
The royals pass the stories down, from generation to generation, making the next swear to only tell the stories to the next in line... no one else..."
