The Ballad of Adler Young, Canto 2.5

>Adler: Why not go see if you can view anything other than the stone circle with the scry-doohickey. Maybe find Ethel and see if you can talk to her like you did Jerry. Tell her you've got her wish set in motion. She doesn't believe you're an elf, maybe this will prove it.
>Ethel: Surprisingly, be pacing around fretting over whether or not this scheme to get rid of Jerry will work. Albeit, in a very surly way.
>Ethel: "Listen here, voice-in-my-head, I'm not burning down the village no matter how many times you tell me to." (she's messing with you. hopefully.)
>Adler: Do you think you could set the ixies up to mass produce shoes for you? Hopefully Jerry's shoe obsession doesn't rub off on you. That sort of madness is the contagious kind.

Spoiler>It may sound cruel, but I think it could make for some interesting developments if Adler did end up being in a long term relationship with Ethel, only to become irreparably heartbroken when she inevitably dies of old age.
