Lady Sparrow Delaney is settling into her new title as Philosopher at the Fae Court. She is the oldest fairy to join so far and the Queen values her wisdom.
Already, Queen Ivy has granted her a motor carriage to use for court errands.
And her chamber has been customised to suit her needs. Right across from the stunning Hero as well.
But despite the tide of glamour that has swept her life, Lady Sparrow knows she mustn't forget her roots.
Over several days, this thought has expanded to encompass all of fairy culture and society.
There needs to be someone to take care of fairy culture and remind the fairies what makes them Fae.
A keeper of history and a guardian of the ancestors, a Minister. That's what the court needs.
And as the Philosopher, Lady Sparrow feels like she is perfectly placed to search Dragun Valliy for a candidate.
Someone who can get along with the people and appeal to the masses as a protector of ancient traditions.
There's news of a fairy in town that's tugging hearts. She is followed by trysts and yet, is faulted with no grudges.
Lady Sparrow thinks this might be the one she's looking for. After all, everyone likes her.
