contemplativeAsk me a question.
This has no connection to the current ARC giveaway, which asks you to ask simple, FAQ-style questions that don't require extensive spoilers or flowcharts. What this is connected to is, well, the big questions. Like when I posted about the rules governing fae marriage. The ones that require serious thought, and a genuine desire to know.
How does fae marriage work? Where did the Changeling's Choice begin? What happened to the Roane? Questions too big, and too complicated, to answer in the FAQ. Now, because I apparently wasn't clear enough the first time, I WILL NOT GIVE SPOILERS. Please don't ask me where someone is, or whether someone else is coming back, or whether you're ever going to see Gillian again (a question which has started to make me clench my teeth). Ask me about laws and rules and universe, about etiquette and speciation and trends in fashion.
The five best questions will get full blog posts about them, explaining whatever facet or facets of Faerie they touch on. I get to determine "best," although you're all welcome to weigh in or ask secondary questions.

Without pulling direct quotes, it appears that there are multiple courts. But there are duchies (like Shadowed Hills) and a whole self-sustaining political universe just inside Golden Gate park which you remarked at one point stands alone politically. But then there is the Queen of the Mists of southern California which Sylvester answers to. There also appears to be a high king based on references in the last book. Can you talk a bit about governance and how it all works?
