“Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder.
Elves are marvellous. They cause marvels.
Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies.
Elves are glamorous. They project glamour.
Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment.

No one ever said elves are nice.
Elves are bad.”
― Terry Pratchett, Lords and Ladies
