Fae (The Cursed Heart)

The Fae of The Cursed Heart series are supernatural creatures.

History
A few notable events in Fae history are told in storybook form.

Laws
Fae cannot lie. However, omitting the truth doesn't count as lying as far as they are concerned.

According to Fae law, a life debt -at least in service to the current Ruler of All Fae- lasts for the term of the current Ruler and not necessarily a lifetime. At the end of the term, the life debt would be fulfilled. A life debt also supersedes other contracts or agreements made.

There are ancient laws of hospitality that all Fae must abide and no Fae is above these laws.

Current Politics
During the Spring and Summer, the head of the Sun Court is the Ruler of All Fae. During the Autumn and Winter, the head of the Moon Court is the Ruler of All Fae. The two courts represent the great elemental forces, keeping the forces in balance.

The Head of the Sun Court has the title "Day Prince" or "Day Princess". It is unclear if this is a term used all of the time, or if it is only when the Sun Court is not the Ruler of All Fae. Consequently, the Head of the Moon Court has the title "Night Prince" or "Night Princess".

Appearance
Fae have pointy ears.
