So, you're walking around on the world map, and there comes that flash you've come to know and loathe. Get ready for another random encounter! Except, what's this? Seems you're not in any danger after all. Congratulations, you've just run into a Fairy Battle. Occasionally showing up in role playing games, the Fairy Battle is something that makes itself look like a battle, but turns out to be, well, something else. Compare Pop Quiz, Helpful Mook. Not to be confused with a Fairey Battle, Shin Megami Tensei (where the title can be taken literally), or a battle with The Fair Folk.
