What will she do when he breaks her command?

A Faerie Song for a Feast
Alan shivered as he sat in a long, lingering shaft of winter sunlight, rapidly fading. He didn’t need the firelight to strum his Celtic harp, restored to him by the Faerie Elandrielle. He hugged it close to him, as close as he hugged the memory of the Faerie feast that he had attended last Full Moon.
Shutting his eyes brought the spectacle to vivid memory. Bright and ornate, the feasting hall had rivalled any castle’s festivities. The duchess and her courtiers had celebrated from sunset to sunrise. They danced, drank sparkling wine, and feasted on sweet meats and rare confections and elaborately dressed swans.
Sylvan light had cascaded from greeny fountains. Silvery light had poured along pathways. A riot of large flowers decorated tables, draped along white-gilded banisters, and wreathed marble columns.
He had played music for a feasting that lasted the night, learning new songs from Elandrielle. Those notes still haunted him. He wanted to pick them out on his harp, even though that Faer lady had warned him not to play the songs when among humans.
With so many hours at the strings, his fingers should have been sore and bleeding. They had not been. The tips showed only the calluses he’d built up over time.
Yet he couldn’t cast that memory into the shadows of his mind.
He didn’t want to. The memory fed him more substantially than the poor fare that the outlaws passed around. Dry bread and a pottage heartened by a single scrawny cock and renewed for several days was not a meal
