Some become their song and float straight out the door, carried by the notes they're singing. Most Nightsingers escape while their Keepers are in the throes of exquisite agony from a song sad enough to make a stone weep, or doubled over in laughter from a bawdy take on a solemn hymn. This is a dangerous position to take as a True Fae. The True Fae have odd and exacting ideas about what makes a good song, so a changeling who produces a less-than-satisfactory piece runs the risk of severe retribution. While it might seem odd for a sculptor or an oil painter to become a Nightsinger, it's really just a matter of learning to sculpt or paint with words and pledges the same way one might sculpt bronze or paint on a canvas. It's not just singers or writers who become this Kith either. Nightsingers were almost uniformly some sort of creative before they were stolen away to Faerie. Nightsingers are the Kith who actually produce the magical songs the creatures in fairy tales teach heroes or children. While they can replicate melodic noises and sing songs taught to them by their human slaves, the Gentry are creatively sterile and cannot create songs of their own. Song is an art almost as old as humanity itself, and something the True Fae are utterly fascinated by. Please don’t make the mistake of throwing your platinum card in – that is, unless you're prepared to deal with the consequences." If you'll notice the jar on my lovely accompanist's piano, I accept cash gifts as a sign of your appreciation.
"Thank you, you've been a lovely audience.
