You realize this doesn't exist right? Its just a fantasy. Faeries aren't real. There is no Seelie or Unseelie Court.

The Faerie, if you go by Irish Myth and Legend are the former inhabitants of Ireland, and possibly the British Isles.

At the conclusion of the second battle of Moy Tooray (actually spelled "Magh Tuired") the victorious 'Milesians' (modern day Celts) defeated the Tuatha DeDanann and then offered them 'terms'.

Those terms were simple, The Celts got the 'upper portions of Ireland' and the Tuatha got the 'lower portions'. The highest Druids on both sides looked the agreement over and all agreed verbally making it official.

The Celts proudly announced that what the document REALLY meant was that the Tuatha De Danaan had to go 'underground' as that was the definition of the word they used. The Tuatha De Danaan used their magic to make themselves and bitterly followed that agreement.


That is from the Irish 'Book of the Invasions' and that story is over 2000 years old. So to all that think it is just 'myth'.... the Greek philosopher Aristotle said it best...

"Yesterdays Heroes are the Myths of Today and the Deities tomorrow"......

The Kings and Queens of that Seelie and Unseelie court are the very same 'heroes' you find in modern myths today and vary from Ireland to Wales to Scotland..... The difference is the 'Seelie' court' respects the treaty for the work of art it was.... the 'UnSeelie' want their former lands and holdings back. Both sides of the Court are just as 'right' as the other......

I am not sure, but I don't think those who know would come onto the internet and casually post their secrets.
