"When I quit The Dark Crystal it was because I’d fallen in love with Jim’s handwritten notes on what his sequel idea was. All I wanted to do, for the fans and for myself, was shoot his version of the film. But nobody gave a shit about what Jim Henson wanted."

One who was dear to me:

Four and twenty ladies fair
Were playing at the ball,
And out then came the fair Janet,
The flower among them all.

 
Four and twenty ladies fair
Were playing at the chess,
And out then came the fair Janet,
As green as any glass.

- From the Ballad of Tam Lin

            In Gaelic tradition the Glaistig was a satyric ethereal female being.  Satyric in the sense that she was goat from the waist down and thus can be seen as a sort of female counterpart to the Greek satyrs and other similar beings.  Like her counterparts in the Mediterranean she could also be mischievous, malicious and capricious.  She sometimes preyed succubus/vampire-like on unsuspecting men or played tricks on passersby.  Alternatively she could be generous and carry out unselfish acts such as tending to and taking care of the young.  She was often depicted with a flowing green robe, or green in general.  She was sometimes considered ‘The Green Lady,’ a sort of counterpart to the ‘Green Man’ of folklore.  Her Faery-like nature is also tied in with her having green attributes.
