Fairy is a different realm but there were some fairies that dwealt in Terra. Germany was at one time one of the richest places in the world for such creatures, but the Big One is the primary reason they are there no more. Creatures of spirit and nature are disrupted by iron at the best of times, but especially the ones adapted to Terra. Those that move back and forth fare fare better, and those that live purely in Outer Fairy almost all the time best of all. Even a Sidhe who lives in Outer Fairy (albeit very carefully given how everyone hates them) is only minorly inconvenienced by toxins and iron whereas their distant cousins in Germany were tailored to the soil itself.
Each of these lancing spiritual wounds helped kill magic, which was exactly how it was intended. People believe the Thule society harmless but love to make fiction about how they crafted with supernatural powers not of this world. Those people would be mistaken, because the Thule society in Terra DID actually convene with these powers; gods, goddesses, dark angels, demons and fairies. It is believed that Terran fairies alone were responsible for 10,000-20,000 allied deaths. Specially constructed bombs penetrated the earth and disrupted the ley lines that allowed such creatures to exist.
While they were killed or disrupted, some have been permanently so. Many fairies can come back in one form or another, and while Germany's forests are certainly spiritual places, gaining a natural boost for their efforts at green energy and atonement of their past crimes, the fairies themselves are simply gone. Gods and Goddesses and a few of their servants walk the land from time to time. Ghosts? Certainly.
But Fairies? Not so much. There are rumors that a few members of Outer Fairy have attempted to colonize the area but even should they do so, their powers at magic and connection to the land would take centuries if not millenia to be the same.
Sometimes Humpty Dumpty really can't be put back into the bottle. Or Egg Shell. Or whatever.
