In light of discussions and rumors of discussions elsewhere on the Internets, I feel moved to say this because I think it needs saying.

Due to the fact that a few teachers are very public, and a whole bunch aren't, Feri is like an iceberg. You only see one-tenth of it; the other nine-tenths are underwater where you can't see.

That one tenth is still obviously an integral part of the iceberg. But it is not the *whole* iceberg. Because some lines and teachers are much more public than others, and Feri is so divergent, what you do see cannot be construed as telling you much about the whole. In feel, yes. In specific, no.

Hell, even as an initiate I don't know everything. Each line has their own lore, and just because the Bloodrose stuff is so prevalent, that doesn't mean that's what everyone has or does. Even some of us who are Bloodrose "cousins" have or do a whole bunch of stuff they don't. Keep that in mind.

I know some of you who are finally thinking you've got the hang of this stuff are going to be a bit dismayed to hear this. But look at it this way: the Mystery continually unfolds. Not just in your relationship to the current and the Gods, but in your relationship to other Fey. The tradition in some sense is the people, and they are a nearly inexhaustible resource. It'll be fine.
