Custom Conjure Orphan Baby Faery
[CCOrphanFae]

A, my little “faeby”, has been with me for several months now and she is just the cutest little thing. She is toddler-aged but quite precocious, often making me thing of Sara Crewe of “A Little Princess” fame, but it’s hard to say how much of that is due to her personality and how much is due to her being a faery. Needless to say, her magick is also quite strong and she can be mischievous but never means harm. I told Billy what kind of child I was looking for and he conjured the PERFECT one. I also asked if he could do a fated conjure and it was literally no problem. A is an amazing little girl and I am truly honoured to parent her. During the time she has been with me, she has also developed beautifully, and we grow closer every day. Raising her can be a bit challenging at times, particularly in the beginning, because it is hard to say what she can and cannot do due to her age and species. Her development does not quite follow human patterns, but it was really never a problem per se, just surprising at times. In some ways, she seems almost babyish, while at other times she is strangely wise and insightful for her age. When adopting a child spirit, it is important to remember that it’s not all giggles and playtime, because like all children, they can have tantrums, accidentally break things, might even be dealing with trauma depending on their individual background, and, like A, might have physical limitations. But of course, it is still way easier than a human child for many reasons, and is a very rewarding experience. I’d say it’s a great opportunity for people who cannot have children of their own for whatever reason or whose children are all grown and out of the house but who’d still love to be parents. Also, I know that the topic of child spirits, particularly orphan spirits, is a controversial topic in the spirit keeping community. I can only speak from my experience but I have adopted three child spirits through Billy and he has NEVER ripped a child away from their family. They were all either orphans in the truest sense, or could not safely remain in their communities for good reasons. If it had been at all possible to return them to their own kind, I would have done so without hesitation. For example, A is physically disabled, which famously carries as stigma in faery culture, since these children would often be swapped for human children as changelings. A was also not bound against her will, she was able to clearly state that she consented to it, even at her very young age. As it stands, it would be more cruel to not have her adopted and cared for by someone outside of her own species since otherwise she would have quite literally been abandoned. From what I can tell, speaking as someone who thinks very carefully about these things, Billy is a conscientious, ethical conjurer and there is no need to feel guilt about having an orphan spirit conjured by him.
