In Irish mythology, we are often warned to be wary of the hospitality of the Sidhe. Never eat or drink anything that is offered to you, because if you do, you will remain in their world forever - and that ending is not always as fairy tale like as we would imagine.

They have little care for humans as a whole - we have done so much damage to their world, but in the Irish legends, it is said that the reason they diminished is they used up almost all the magic in the land and so became weak, allowing humans to populate, so in a way, they too abused the earth. I think because of this many of them are bitter.

Enjoy their friendship, but do not think they will take away your troubles. Trust your intuition, you will know bad from good.
