As a rare type of fae that feeds on emotion—a psy vampire—I sense energy as easily as I breathe. When I’m used to a person’s energy, or their energetic signature, as I call it, it’s easier for me to tune them out at will. But when I’m near too many new people at once…it’s a lot to get used to. It’s one reason I’ve never been great at making new acquaintances. I much prefer a quiet palace, solitude, and spending my time at home with the very few people I know and trust.
