The way I see the world, is everything is one. Everything is unity. Information is what energy is made of, so it fuels everything, is everything and was everything.
The elements of Fire, Water, Earth and Air are a result of the Elementals who ultimately became these. The Iron War was started when humans tried to drive out Faeries who ultimately were trying only to show humans they were wrong to falsely accuse.
They were falsely accused of trying their level best to harm the babies. They were only trying to bless the children so they may see hear smell taste and touch, ultimately Know that faeries and spirits exist.
The Faeries then refused to help the farmers for a while until they realized their mistake and learned from it. Then, the farmers out of fear, doubt and ignorance having forgotten the Faerie's lessons, Blamed them for loss of crops for the season.
After driving these soulful, divine beings out beating them with iron tools, and abusing them, many of the mis informed human beings out of fear and their experience which was false and not understood at all, wrote stories of "Evil" Faeries and beings that destroyed and reeked havoc on humans.
Humans are fast to judge and fast to mis understand. Many Faeries before this time had children with humankind. These babies had gained balance and power unknown and mis understood.
So, these children were shunned. Humans need to open their minds, hearts and souls to see what is seen and not a mis interpreted version of what they think Trolls look like, as Faeries can look like even a simple dragonfly.
The reason for my bringing Faeries up, is that humans are fast to judge other humans or facts they don't understand.
And that was an example. :)
Your envisionment of the world is quite intriguing to me.
There is a fine line between believing in what you do based on facts & history or written scripture that is traditional and believing in something that sounds illogical, did not happen, & simply incorporated into fantasy. You crossed over the line.
I do understand that this an example of how you think humanity is like and that humans need to open their hearts up which is perfectly fine to envision. Your envisionment simply was not relatable and contained elements of fantasy. It was nothing based on history nor written scripture (as far as I'm aware but someone could correct me).
You also came around in certain parts of the example as if it was true and actually happened. It also came across as if you had no knowledge of faeries which you obviously do not. "They were falsely accused of trying their level best to harm the babies. They were only trying to bless the children so they may see hear smell taste and touch, ultimately Know that faeries and spirits exist." Faeries are spirits according to most of the beliefs and stories I've heard about them, but not everyone believes in them. "Humans are fast to judge and fast to mis understand. Many Faeries before this time had children with humankind." Spirits cannot have babies with humans. There are myths that do suggest that spirits have done so but those are myths. Your story was not a myth. You came across as if this was some historical event that never happened with nothing to support this example that you gave us.
I know this is an example of your view and this thread was not meant to criticize it, but the example could of been a bit better if you ask me. I view life as a circle that is intertwined with many other circles.
Spirits such as these can create physical bodies to survive Earth's climate and energy changes. This means, Faeries lived on Earth years ago. But, were scared to befriend us again.
Brysing, yes. I still do believe. So what?
Everyone has their personal belief.

Oh, dear! Now you are writing your beliefs as though they are fact.
You may, of course, believe anything you wish. It's okay to believe in fairies. It is not okay to state that belief as though it is a fact!
