Old English folklore figure (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

faerie

(Other definitions for faerie that I've seen before include "The . . . . . . Queen (Spenser)" , "The land of the little people" , "purveyor of magic" , "Imaginary land; Spenser's Queene" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
