Deer myths

"The Insular Celts held deer as supernatural animals, "fairy cattle" that were herded and milked by a localised and benevolent fairy giantess in each district, who could shift shape to that of a red deer; in the West Highlands, she selected the individual deer that would be slain in the next day's hunt" (link)

this is myth i found from wikipedia, the most interesting part of this myth is the way deers are seen as fairy cattle/ supernatural animals. i think i could involve this idea of a fairy cattle and using some things that symbolize fairies e.g fluffy things, glitter. i also like the supernatural idea to
