awakeTHERE WILL BE SPOILERS.
Seriously. If anyone comments here at all, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS. So please don't read and then yell at me because you encountered spoilers. You were warned. (I will not reply to every comment; I call partial comment amnesty. But I may well join some of the discussion, or answer questions or whatnot.) I will be DELETING all comments containing spoilers which have been left on other posts. No one gets to spoil people here without a label.
You can also start a discussion at my website forums, with less need to be concerned that I will see everything you say! In case you wanted, you know, discussion free of authorial influence, since I always wind up getting involved in these things.
Have fun, and try not to bleed on the carpet.

We know that the Dochas Sidhe are important in some way. Perhaps somebody wanted to make sure that August would not fulfill the destiny of the Dochas Sidhe. Presumably, this attempt was not wholly successful, but I don't know how reliable Simon's opinion is in that regard.
Severe paranoia points out that Olivia de Merelands was in the area about the same time that August vanished - and we know who was pulling her strings now.
In my opinion, October appears to be Amandine's attempt to have a child who would not be fae enough to be part of the Dochas Sidhe. She lost one child, and she wanted to have a child that she could keep - somebody who was human enough to escape the job that her bloodline was supposed to do, and the threats that came with it.
