>>52736887>In the originating folklore, "Elf" and "Dwarf" were intermixedI was originally going to post a lengthy documentary about the small Fae-Folk like how in Scandinavian/Germanic mythology had both the Dwarves(Old Maturelike Crafters) and Elves(Youthful Childlike Pranksters) as short beings and how the meaning of Elf and Dwarf started to branch off into other Faes like Brownies, Hobs, Leprechauns, and Kobolds, also to explain how Tall Elegant Elves came from Norse mythology.
but I felt that will confuse readers more than give an answer, so I just named the three common Fae-Folk and be done with it.
So, thank you, Anon.
