Lynn (Book One of the Lynn Saga)

An Introduction to Magic

A lot of people think that Elves work for Santa.

Another big bunch of guys think Fairies are cute and tiny.

And what kind of person thinks that Pixies are weird tiny people?

And who put all of this junk into your heads? You deserve to know the truth!

And so, in this book, these are my definition of the following creatures:

Elves: They look like people, but they are more beautiful and have pointed ears. Elves use magic and study to get better.  They are about as tall and are the same size of people.

Dark Elves: Dark Elves are like Elves, but they use Dark Magic. They get their magic when they are born and must learn to control it.  Dark Elves are on the bad side and not the good one.

Fairies: Fairies look like people, but they have wings and thin Eurasian eyes that can be any color of the rainbow! They get their magic at a young age and study to learn more!  Fairies are the same size as humans and have large wings that are pointed, not like butterfly wings.

Pixies: Pixies are just like Fairies, but they have pointed ears and darker hair. Pixies use Dark Magic, and they get it at birth and learn to control it.

Mermaids: Mermaids are beautiful with bikini tops that match their beautiful tails. Mermaids are powerful warriors and are not to be messed with. They use light magic, and are good creatures, but they're not afraid to fight evil. Mermaids get their magic at birth and study to learn more.  They are about eight feet tall, including the tail.  From their head to their waist, they're about the same as humans.  Their tails are about three feet long and can be different colors.

Sirens: Sirens are like Mermaids, but they are more evil. Not every Siren is born evil, that's just stupid. Sirens are even more beautiful than Mermaids and have feet instead of tails. They get their magic at birth and study to learn more. Sirens look like humans, but when they hunt they can grow large fangs and are very fast.

Werewolves: Werewolves are terrifying, they are not guys you date. Most werewolves are evil, but some aren't. That goes for every evil creature and vice-versa. Advanced werewolves can even transform when it's not a full moon! Werewolves are lucky. They get their magic at a very young age and it is already controlled.  Werewolves are all usually seven or eight feet tall. The shortest grown Werewolf was six feet and the tallest was eleven and a half.

Sprites: Sprites look exactly like Fairies, except they are tiny and have pointed ears like Pixies. Sprites, just like Mermaids, get their magic at birth and learn to get better and get more magic. They are usually 4-8 inches tall and very kind.

Centaurs: Centaurs are great fighters. Almost every Centaur in the magical world uses a spear. Centaurs are loyal and wise and can run very, very fast. About half of Centaurs are herbivores and the other half are omnivores. Centaurs have a different kind of magic, usually brewing potions and crafting weapons.

Now, each magical creature falls into one out of two categories - good or evil.

Evil creatures include Dark Elves, Pixies, Sirens, Werewolves, Clowns, Jesters, Dark Demons, Red Demons, Leprechauns, and Shadow Demons. Now remember, these fit under their category because of the majority. Magical beings aren't born a certain way. Again, that's just stupid.

Good creatures include Elves, Fairies, Mermaids, and Sprites. Even though most people think that Centaurs should be in this category, Centaurs are more of the neutral kind. About half and half are good and evil.

So, when you're reading this book, remember what the creatures actually look like!
