“I am going to keep on defying you. I am going to shame you with my defiance. You remind me that I am a mere mortal and you are a prince of Faerie. Well, let me remind you that means you have much to lose and I have nothing.

The Night Court is a mountainous court located at the northernmost region of Prythian, and boasts the largest amount of territory out of all the courts. It is one of the three Solar Courts, along with the Day Court and Dawn Court. Though it is called “The Night Court”, it follows the cycle of day and night, as every solar court does.
