XVII. THE STAR

              The Eternal Night is a catastrophic and terrifying frame of time after the second war. Prince Faylin the sun, was kidnapped at the end of the war by Peter Pan, therefore robbing the whole kingdom and nature of the light of the sun and a long painful and terrifying night had fallen upon everything and everyone. The light of the sun is an essential component for the flow of life itself, the balance that is needed for life to grow adequately, and with the light of the sun now gone, everything was thrown out of order. The nature reacted in an instant, becoming colder and with less color, with less life, and many plants even dying. The faes were greatly affected as well, especially the seasons. Spring became weaker, and could not manage to stop all the plants from dying even if she tried, she was more tired and weak. Summer grew colder than usual and weaker as well. W(y)inter had fallen into a terrifying state, painfully and agonizing pain as he ( along with his family ) turned into a statue of pure ice. Autumn had also grown weaker and fallen into a deep deep slumber, all the while he was turning completely into roots. Every common fae was cold, weak, tired and in pain.

                During this time, the only light to shine hope and keep faes from not permanently dying was the light of the moon. Dwyn the moon, was the one to cast his light over everything the whole time without a break. His light was the life and the guidance of this period of time. He was shining and being the light to sustain the fragile life struggling to have some kind of flow. His powers were strained beyond exhaustion, as he sat between the painful sight of ice statues of his own family members. Nobody really knows how much this painful period of time had lasted, as day and night became the same dark skies that never changed, and so nobody knew if a day passed, if it was supposed to be day or night. Time felt like it was not real that moment and they were only waiting, waiting for the sun to come back and for the balance to be back to normal.

                     Balance is something that should not be messed with or else, the consequences are devastating for everyone and that dark time was the prime example of what happens when the balance is broken. There can't be only moon or only sun, there needs to be both in order for life to exist, if one disappears then everything turns to chaos. If one is not, the life can't go on.

the moon court and spring court faes have special eyes.

The moon court faes have pupils in the shape of a specific moon phase that suits their core/personality the best, which is often the phase of the moon that they were born under. Since most of the moon court is composed of other faes from the winder and autumn court, most of them gain that pupil once they settle in the court.

The spring court faes have pupils that are shaped like flowers, they have a normal dot pupil part and the 5 or 6 petals around it and the whole thing is their pupil. There is no deeper correlation for it, they are just born like that.

THE MOON COURT ruled by the personification of the moon and unseelie, Dwyn, coming to birth from the season personification of winter. the court is about mystery, the circle of life and constant change, it is about constant movement and flow: the water, time itself and life are all a constant changing thing, unexpected and containing a lot of mysteries. the court pertains to ones longing for a deeper connection with the overall flow, changes and the inner self.

faes of this court are a combination of both winter and autumn faes, any fae that feels a restless change within them, like they don't belong where they are, is usually the kind o fae that is led into the moon court. The faes of this court nurture a deep connection with their core, striving to better understand themselves and follow the lead of change confidently, for they know their bond towards the moon is the only true thing that was always real and always there.

These faes are skillful in hiding, manipulating and making use of the shadows. There are various different type of personalities as they come from different previous courts which you'd think it would be a mess but despite all that, as they are together they all are in harmony even without knowing each other because all their bonds are deep within each other.

the court is floating somewhere above the sea, hidden behind clouds during the day and shining bright during the night. If you were to walk in during the day inside the court you'd notice that the place is still in nighttime, or a rather lighter night than a normal one, then when the sun sets outside of the court then it gets much darker than a normal night. Because of the serene silent nature, the court also seems eerily empty if you just walk in, however if you look closely, the faes are everywhere within the shadows and the moonlight.

the faes of this court are close to the elements of water and snow that are the main ones of the beloved moon.

Dwyn himself has an unpredictable behavior that changes every time, his moods are always in constant change and yet he is always will be found and will find the ones that call him and his light. He is quiet spoiled and his mood swings can go as far as murder a lot of times, however aside from casual dislike, all the faes within his court still respect and love him and would never wish to break their connection with him. He too treasures his court despite the mood swings and always baths them in his soothing light, offering them dedicated protection and power. The bond between them and dwin is very much a mirror image of the one that the sun court has, of undying and unconditional loyalty.
