In Leaf there is more of Christianity than of Faery, seemingly. It's shown that Niggle-Parish neighbourhood is planned by somebody (say
Voices, but those are rather representations of Justice and Mercy, or maybe Angels of those?) to teach them both an acceptance, which gives fruit in the end after all.
