Not sure if I like the "message" of the story? And that being we have this youngster first sees the "fairy" in the wood, she's beautiful and such that's great, and she gave him her pendant before going away because of daybreak.
Now we found out it's the youngster's recollection now that he's old, and he died presumably peacefully while still kept the pendant. NOW what I don't like is, we see his daughter (?) and granddaughter (?) mourning for his passing while his "spirit" is reunited with the fairy...
Well what's going on with his wife? To me it feels like he just left his family behind to finally be with the person he truly loves, that is the fairy. I don't know man. Kind of weird.
