"Basically, yeah. It's like... The guardian of a land, but also the distilled essence of it." That's probably the most succinct way to put it anyway, "I alway thought they were, well, a fairy tale. I've never encountered one, nor has anybody I know." Eames shakes his head as he talks, a little of that dismissive attitude slipping into his tone. (Alongside a wry smirk at the mention of fairy tales.)

But anyway, he gestures toward the book with his fork, "at least some of that seems to talk about how to... Commune with them, however."
