"Lords and Ladies" is a fantasy novel by Terry Pratchett, part of the Discworld series. Set in a whimsical universe, it combines humor, satire, and fantasy elements, focusing on the themes of myths and reality. The story revolves around a group of witches and the complications that arise when they confront the realities of their world, which is entangled with the notions of nobility and magic.
The plot thickens as the witches—specifically Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg—face off against traditional fairy tale elements and mischievous creatures. The arrival of elves poses a threat, as they seek to reclaim their former power, demonstrating how old legends can disrupt the present. The witches must navigate their own beliefs against the enchanting yet dangerous allure of the elves.
