It is a fool's prerogative to utter truths that no one else will speak.
This is a work of fiction. All the characters in it, human and otherwise, are imaginary, excepting only certain of the fairy folk, whom it might be unwise to offend by casting doubts on their existence. Or lack thereof.
We all not only could know everything. We do. We just tell ourselves we don't to make it all bearable.
