Distel faery
by Iris Compiet
As a distel grows older their spininess increases. Older distels are less agile and are easier prey. As a defence, they develop more rigid prickles to ward off danger. In medieval times people believed that a distel faery held the cure against baldness. Distels were collected and sold as a miracle cure, rendering them almost extinct.
