Fairies and Dragons

Fairies are generally portrayed as human in appearance and as having supernatural abilities such as the ability to fly and to influence or foresee the future, although in modern culture they are often depicted as young, sometimes winged, females small stature with wings, even very small fairies flew with magic.
Fairies were an intelligent species, distinct from humans and angels. Also describing the fairies as creatures of the air have been found popularly.
Some belief held that they were angels. One popular story held that when the angels revolted, God ordered the gates shut; those still in heaven remained angels, those in hell became devils, and those caught in between became fairies. Some belief that the fairies were actually humans; it says that a woman had hidden some of her children from God, and then looked for them in vain, because they had become the hidden people, the fairies.
