"It's been a while since I've talked to one."

If I hear anyone bragging that they'll have one in a few months I can let you know.

"They brag about it, huh?"

There are lots of sorts of people. Some do.

"I suppose those'd be the ones you'd hear about." Sigh.

Yes. And also the ones that are least likely to mean well, since you don't know months in advance why they're coming.

"Guess not.

Is there a good way to go check out the humans around here without running afoul of court territories?"

"Not at night, unfortunately, not in this part of the world which is fairly dense. You could visit a human city to the north, where there aren't many fairies?

"I didn't spot any human cities the last time I went north but maybe I would have if I'd veered a bit to the left or something."

If you want to put up a couple more lights, I can get you that map.

"Where do you want them?"

So he points some places out.

Places get lit.

Then she can have a map with human cities and court boundaries on it. Courts are small and dense; they get less dense, but not vastly bigger, up north, and there's lots of empty space.

Promise copies the map over.

"Have a good trip."

"Thanks."

The court continues to entertain impressed visitors.

And one day when she has nothing much to do she zooms up north between courts and looks for some humans to wander among.

They're mostly asleep, but there are some still to be found. 

They live in small wooden houses and seem to own only one or maybe two pairs of hand-sewn clothing and most of them are farmers.

Huh. Unexpected.

She spies on them for a while, sleeps in a hayloft, goes back - home.

As she left it. 

Checks all her gates again.

One of them is settled!

- oh good.

Can she lock this door.
