Exactly! That is why I mentioned the "little people" as too obvious. The 
Otherworld is coexisting with ours according to myth, and if we forget for a 
while about trolls and leperchauns, it is a world similar to ours (more or 
less)  :-)
But let's not speculate too much! You have a fine series to do, full of 
potentialities. I would hate to interfere in the process.

Concerning the ivy, I think that just decreasing a little bit the size of 
the leaves would be enough. Just to find the right balance between the two 
worlds.
