(Duncan is telling a little girl a story in a compromised building.)

Duncan MacLeod:
Once there was this place where the faerie-people lived. It was a beautiful city in those days, surrounded by white walls, and tall stone towers...

Little girl, Belinda:
What were they like?

Duncan:
Oh, they were like regular people, except they lived for a very long time, and they never grew old.

Belinda:
Like Peter Pan!

Duncan:
Yeah, sort of. Well, the fairies...were handsome, and wise, and very, very clever. The problem was, as time went on, there were more and more people, and soon the faerie people had to leave this home in the faerie city. They moved into the mountains, and into the old forests, and in the caves, and in the cliffs, but the other people always found these places, so the faerie people had to move on.

Belinda:
That's sad. Where do they live now?

Duncan:
Oh, Belinda, they're all around us, and you know what their job is? It's to protect children, and sometimes tell them stories.

Belinda:
Have you ever met one?

Duncan:
Oh, lots.
