Irish mythology figure



For the Dreamers Challenge March 10th theme 'Leprechaun'.
I based my interpretation on old Irish mythology.
A leprechaun is a type of male faerie in Irish folklore. They usually form into a look of old men who enjoy doing trouble. Legend says, if someone looks at one of them, the leprechaun cannot escape, but moment the person looks away, he disappears.

Thank you for looking.
*****
'Leprechaun' -teeman tulkintani perustuu vanhaan irlantilaiseen mytologiaan, jonka mukaan se on velhomainen miespuolinen hahmo, joka nauttii kiusan tekemisestä. Taru kertoo, että jos joku katsoo johonkin heistä, ne eivät voi liikkua, mutta heti jos henkilö katsoo muualle, ne katoavat. 
Kiva, jos teema kiinnosti sinua ja poikkesit katsomassa.
