Nikkela let out a laugh, half amused and half bitter, at Holly's comment. She tried to stand up, finding herself still slightly unsteady on her feet, but now she wasn't trying to run as for some reason she felt safer around this woman than she had around humans in quite a long time.<br/><br/>"I appreciate that you<em>think</em>fairies aren't where you are, but you couldn't be more wrong," Nikkela replied. "Or...at least, I hope you're wrong. With all the creatures that are wondering the world now god only knows if all the fairy colonies that once existed are still out there." As she tried to shift into a more comfortable position her tunic moved enough to reveal an old but still vicious looking scar on her stomach. "There's a whole world of magic out there you humans don't know about, although the way this war is going you're going to know about it soon enough whether you like it or not."
