So Seph is accustomed to being lied to, and he knows the fae are tricksters so he's extra on his guard here. On the off chance one ran into the old woman, what would happen if someone cautious and earnest showed her their copy of the rules and asked her if the information about her was accurate? Seph isn't any good at lying, but he'd be inclined to try if it made someone happy...BUT he is wary that the information the fae has given them about the old woman is a setup and that lying to her is actually not something she likes at all. So he'd be inclined to check first, like a good boy.
