Once upon a time, fairies were peaceful, mischeivous sprites who danced, sang and played, enjoying their typical diet of honey and fruit. However, fairies are nothing if not curious, and one day a fairy by the name of Merryzot decided to taste the meat of a dead mouse.

Once upon a time, fairies were peaceful, mischeivous sprites who danced, sang and played, enjoying their typical diet of honey and fruit. However, fairies are nothing if not curious, and one day a fairy by the name of Merryzot decided to taste the meat of a dead mouse.

It was new.

It was tasty.

It was ''addictive''.

Naturally, on the heels of this discovery fairies decided to see what all different types of meat tasted like. That was when they discovered that the most delicious meat came from other fairies.

Now the fairy tribes are locked in war, with each individual born with an addictive hunger for the flesh of their fellows.
