I think though Odd, the difference is most people understand what a "fighty pirate" is, and they are still human. The Fae are non-human so I think that makes it a bit more difficult to understand for some folks? Their culture would likely be very different and being secluded would lead to very specific traditions and customs and perhaps even different anatomical structures (how do they have babies for instance - that is explained for the Merfolk but not the Fae).
Hopefully that makes sense. If not you know where to find me :)
