However, Árni believes the boulder and its hidden residents saved his life when he was in a car accident a couple of years ago and a specialist in the affairs of elves had confirmed that they were content with the move, which took place earlier this week.
Magnús said that he has his doubts about the elves’ consent, pointing out that accidents are known to follow disruptions of elf settlements. Yet the MP is not concerned. He explained that the project had not cost much because many people contributed. “They think it’s fun and so they help out.”
“We paid a ferry ticket for the young couple,” Árni said of two of the boulder’s alleged residents, “a formal ticket for a hidden man and woman with Herjólfur.” Elf specialist Ragnhildur Jónsdóttir, who travelled with Árni and the elves on the ferry, fed them honey on the way, saying that honey is their favourite food.

Despite the fact no one believes in faeries in Ireland if someone has a known 'faery fort' (usually a cluster of stones or tree) they still leave them alone.
To be honest I probably would too.
Probably because in Ireland people would point and laugh at you if you tried to move a sodding great rock for reasons that require the use of a good psychologist.
