Attacked by a soldier of the demon race, a young woman has a child from their union. To her horror, he bears the mark of the demon, and her people will stop at nothing to kill it. Being part fairy, Azra uses her magic to try and save her child from his demon blood. In spite of her best efforts, he briefly turns into the monstrous Sartwor beast, slaying her entire village.

Excerpt
Azra’s senses were overcome with wonder. The miniature figures flitting about them like the most brilliant of dragonflies, were fairy children. All had the silvery wings, long red curling locks and amber eyes that shone as brightly as gold; but their sizes were as varied as the individual features on each mischievous face.
Some were the size of the two elderly fairies who escorted them through the throng, others were as tiny as her hand, while many others ranged the size in-between. Azra was fascinated by all of them. But the tiny mites who were no bigger than her whole hand, gained most of her attention. They seemed to represent the fairies from which legends sprang, in reality; they appeared to be the youngest of the fairy children. Laughter, giggles, and whispers were a constant barrage of noise around them as they proceeded.
Many times as they traversed carefully through the tiny bodies, fairy children would hover in front of their faces like hummingbirds, their cherub faces merry and curious. More than once, she felt the soft brush of a silken wing against her cheek, almost as if the children were using their wings to give them a kiss of hello.
Azra thought it strange, but very interesting, that
Bretuck had more than his share of female fairies hovering about his face in a constant, ever-shifting flow of excited, tiny figures.
When they reached the other end of the valley, a line of impressive, majestic oaks were at the end of the short trek.
The elder fairy turned to the flock of children who’d followed them. “Go play children, you can visit with them later.”
Reluctantly, it seemed, the tiny figures left in groups, dozens of dazzling bodies flitting off together.
