Description of Edwin Phair:

The son of Duncan and Marian. He’s a very naive and sheltered boy, but has a terrific ability to perform wild acrobatics and gymnastic feats, which he trained himself to do away from his mother’s disapproving eyes. After his kidnapping, Edwin is sold to the circus by Lena. He is first afraid, but quickly finds that performing as The Elfin Fair makes him very happy, and he much prefers the traveling and performing life to his strict and regimented former life. Age 7-8.
