The Autumn Court

[Keryth]

Just a crazy thought I latched onto reading through the DFRPG books, but, what if the Autumn Court became the Elves of cintra 9aka the elves of Terry Brooks' Shannara series)? The Autumn Court no longer exists, because they became mortal, turning their back on Faerie and their magic (as Brooks suggests his elves did) to protect the world from the 'demons' inside the Ellcrys?

This leaves a few interesting questions:

1) If there was an Autumn Court, what happeend to the Spring Court? And where did they fit in in regards to the stone Table?

2) What are the 'Demons' behind the forbidding, and why would the Autumn Court give up ebing Faerie to contain them?

3) How do winter and Summer view these 'fallen' bretheren?

Well, the thread on Oberon gave me a really nice idea.  Autumn and Spring really aren't big things in the world. Everything things to be two sided, not 4.  Good and Evil, Night and Day, et cetera.  So separate major *courts* wouldn't make a whole lot of sense.  But the idea of the Erlking and Oberon could be the kings of Autumn and Spring, not full courts but allies and harolds of Winter (erlking) and Summer (Oberon).

This would allow for more knights and still fit in perfectly into the dresdenverse.
