As I said, if the Fairies attacked the Markavian, it was not a war, but a slaughter, the Markavian couldn't nor would try to mount an effective resistance, messages take months to arrive between groups. Plus their magic has very little combat applications.So yeah, are Fairies genocidal?[/quote]

It's more that Cats quite literally preyed on innocent Fairies, and they responded with deadly, organized force.
