CURRENT AFFAIRS

And though you be foolish or though you be wise,
With hair of silver or gold,
You could never be young as the fairies are,
And never as old.

There is always a lot of things going on in the world of the Fey. Rivalries, romances, plots and scemes run rampant all the time, not to mention the mixups, misunderstandings, exchanges at birth, evil twins and the occasional war. It's a lot to keep track of, and this is where we will make a valiant attempt. As soon as the characters are uploaded (which may or may not be within the year), we will begin posting what is going on with everybody. This will be udated irregularly, as things progress.

Until then, ideas for wacky complications and implausible plots are always welcome.

Main Plots at the Moment:

Zoolk wants revenge over Eilwedd for taking away her father. But more than that, she wants to remove Alanni from her situation of power, mostly because she feels that Alanni has taken her place as the apple of Daerians eye. Alanni, on the other hand, is scared that she might not be any good at standing on her own two legs, and is quite a good target. If it wasn't for her very protective father and the full support she has from her mother, the Matriarch, Zoolk would probably already have succeded.


More than anything, Eilwedd dreads that someone will find out about her infidelity with Kit. Not that the scandal would be bad, but that revelation would eventually lead to the discovery of her daughter Kedhi, a daughter that could very easily be used against her in political ploys. A danger made all the more scary by the fact that Eilwedd genuinely loves Kedhi, which only gives the girl more power over her mother, and gives Eilwedd another reason to hide her away.


Although the Matriarch of Eylem, Illuein, is married to Tallas, it is widely known as a purely political marriage. There has never been much love between the two, and both have indulged in other beds besides the maritial one. Admittedly, Tallas has become rather notorious for his womanizing, and several Satyrs are even beginning to take notice.

Illuein on the other hand fell in love with Yaolin, and has never strayed from him. They adore each other with a fiery passion, but cannot be formally wed due to the rather unfortunate circumstances. So Yaolin fervently wishes he could rid the world of the cheating scum that is Tallas so he can finally marry the love of his life. Meanwhile, several of the women Tallas has used and left behind are nurturing wounded prides, and have their own plans for comeuppance.

Illuein herself is torn between wishing to do the best for her house and following her heart. She has hidden her inner conflict well, but sooner or later she will be forced to drastic measures, unless someone else solves the situation for her first.


 Leyana has spent most of her life seducing other prominent fey, using her body as a tool to climb the ladder of status and power. But not in the way most people think, for mere lust seldom lasts, but a child is a tool for life. She is supernaturally fertile, a rare trait among fey, and she utilizes it to her full advantage. She has many, many children, and she has raised them to be loyal to her. They are the ties she has to most of the fey nobility, and she is extremely adept at manipulating others trough them. She has even managed to get her claws into Siludar this way, and many suspect that the only reason she hasn't managed to secure a more prominent position yet is because her plan backfired.

Her second daughter, Aumlig, grew up with little to no attention from her mother, besides the constant lessons in loyalty, yet she tried to do her best so her mother would finally notice and love her. Then, in her adult life, Aumlig was used as a pawn in one of the innumerable plots of Leyana. It went horribly wrong, and Aumlig was horrified that her own flesh and blood would use her so callously, like a disposable item to be risked for greater rewards. She decided then and there that she had to stop her mother, at all costs. And she is perhaps the only reason that Leyana still hasn't triumphed totally. Aumlig still tries to inform people of her dastardly schemes, and wishes more people would join her cause.


Nobody knows exactly whether Sûriontin is cooking up some grand scheme or is merely an unfaithful bastard. In any case, this youngling managed to become the husband of Amthoril, matriarch of Frial, which has set him up for life. Yet he has also managed to be unfaithful with Esam, and give her three daughters. This wasn't exactly popular, and the after-effects of that affair are still happening.


Ainthra is an assertive lady, yet she's lonely and wants someone to love. Ecwi on the other hand is very much enamoured by Ainthra, but gets too shy and nervous whenever he's around her to actually make a move. He's also deathly afraid that his arch-nemesis, Nanim, will ever find out about this. Nanim makes fun of everybody, and he has a special fondness for ridiculing Ecwi, yet in these matters of the heart Ecwi feels especially vulnerable. He's willing to do anything to stop Nanim and his crony Hwok from discovering his secret affections, but this also makes it even more difficult for him to let Ainthra know how he feels. How she would react to him is still unknown, and may continue that way for some time to come.
