Sylvaine Lilywisp
the Cloverdiadem Fairy
Named for the deep-rooted lily that grows in the shade of old forest kings and the wisp of wild clover that crowns the humble ground.
Clover-pledge — you can bless a field with three-leaf fortune or four-leaf trespass, but every leaf you take leaves a green freckle on your palm, and the debt must be paid in sweat or blood before the next full moon.

You were counting clover leaves in the meadow behind the churchyard, looking for a fourth. The moment you found it—a tiny white fleck on the green—the ground beneath your knees trembled and a lily shot up from between your fingers, already in bloom. It smelled of iron and honey, and the clover you had been holding turned to gold thread in your palm. That was the day the court below claimed you.
