Do you know a collective term for ‘‘protectors’’ and ‘‘caretakers’’? I don't know of that makes sense.. but like 😭 a term to describe both of them at once (e.g., ‘‘yeah, sorry, you'll have to talk to a ____ about that!’’)

That makes sense! I've never heard a term for it so I'm just going to coin it!

Guardian - An umbrella term for alters who are protectors, caretakers, both, or similar roles.

The light brown and shield is for protecting roles The pink is for the care and love that they have while fulfilling these roles The blue and medical cross are for the gentleness of caretaking roles

Hopefully this helps and if you're not a fan of the term, here are some words that could also work: Patron, chaperone, guide, shield, and advocate

Good morning! Have a great saturday, enjoy this amazing Scottish castle and remember... #stayathome . . . Dunvegan Castle, Isle of Skye . . This beautiful 📸 was taken by @nichbrand ————————————— Dunvegan Castle is located on the Isle of Skye. It is the seat of the MacLeod of MacLeod, chief of the Clan MacLeod. Probably a fortified site from the earliest times, the castle was first built in the 13th century and developed over the centuries. In the 19th century the whole was remodelled in a mock-medieval style. The castle is built on an elevated rock overlooking an inlet on the eastern shore of Loch Dunvegan, a sea loch. It's home of the mystic Fairy Flag and other MacLeod artefacts. It is open to visitors from April to mid October. . #dunvegan #dunvegancastle #macleodestate #clanmacleod #macleod #fairyflag #isleofskye #skye #scotland #castillo #castle #castles #ruins #scottishhistory #medieval #castillos #castelli #castello #castelo #castelos #uk #europe #burg #chateau https://www.instagram.com/p/B9_j01CglzU/?igshid=cuhz2fvhz1bj

Fairy Flag  #FairyFlag The most well-known version of the story, the one on this site, is where the heir of the MacLeod falls in love with a fairy but they are only allowed to marry for a year and a day before she has to return to her own people. One day, hearing, from the fairy realm, her son crying, she goes to him and cradles him back to sleep, wrapping him in a fairy shawl. Many years later, the young man, tells his father that, should they ever find themselves in mortal danger, they can wave the shawl and the fae will come to their aid. However, they can only use it three times. So far it has been used when the MacLeod were overrun in a battle and to prevent starvation of the population. However, there are alternative versions of the story. In one version the fairy gives the shawl to her husband as she bids him farewell at the Fairy Bridge (located about 3 miles from Dunvegan) rather than her son. She promises that if it is waved in times of great danger, help would be given but on the third use both the flag and its bearer would disappear never to be seen again.  In other legends, the flag is obtained by a MacLeod returning from a Crusade to the Holy Land. He meets a hermit who gives him food and shelter and warns him of a dangerous spirit or ‘She Devil’ that guards the pass. MacLeod defeats the She Devil who rewards him for conveying some secrets to her friends by revealing to him the future destinies of the Clan. She also gives him her girdle, telling him to convert it into a banner that can then be used in times of great need. In another version, the spirit is a witch and, after defeating her, he meets a fairy who gives him a box of scented wood; she tells him it contains several other smaller boxes, fitted inside one another. Inside the innermost box is a magic banner which, when waved, would bring forth a host of armed men to aid its owner. Once again it can only be used three times. Tradition also says that it is only the Clan head or oldest male child that is allowed to unfurl the flag.
