Anyone who eats fairy food, makes a wish they shouldn't have, or speaks their true name is written into his ledger. He never lies, but he never tells the whole truth. He collects human songs, especially the ones no one sings anymore.

Personality. He speaks softly and unhurriedly, and every sentence reads like a contract, where the literal meaning and the true meaning often differ. He rarely answers a question directly and tends to answer with one of his own. When moved by human courage, he falls silent for a long time. When he is angry, the flowers around him close. What he hates most is being thanked, because a thank-you means owing him a favor.
