AEG: Cassie in love

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Indeed. Fairyland is the land of death, more or less.

This is not the Fairyland of "happily ever after," but a land of 
dangerous adventures. Cassie is advised to go armed and not to talk to 
the fish. Wolfe's Fair Folk are never all that nice, whether in 
Castleview,  the Wizard Knight, "No Planets Strike," "The Magic Animal," 
or AEG.
