Tenebrys the fairy, also known as Susan Seleen of Madison, Wisconsin, teaches children to "slip unseen by humans" during a game of hide and seek at the 13th annual World of Faeries Festival at Vasa Park in South Elgin Saturday. Children collected beads to make a necklace with each fairy skill learned.
