Eirwen's rise

1 Eirwen took the throne as the first flakes of snow formed and fell from clouds high above. The court moved with the seasons drifting through the air, shining lights in mist dew and frost. The Seelie court prized beauty above all things; in action and thought as well as appearance. She had long been known for her good deeds; her love of others had led her to intervene in the affairs of mortals, protecting and defending while frost was on the ground. Seasons and tastes changed even among the nobility of the court, and this year she was the ideal, the one all others wished to emulate, in look as well as deed. 2 The court, as fickle as they could be in their personal whims and fancies, maintained their core beliefs through the years. None could live with dishonour, and glory was a goal worth chasing. Eirwen had encountered the Unseelie before, their malevolence and trickery bringing all Sidhe into disrepute. As winter began to bite, their own court would be changing, new plans forming for disrupting and damaging, turning the world as ugly as themselves. This year it would fall to her to lead the Seelie court against them. In times past this had been left to warriors and knights, those males and females determined to prove their worth, their beauty enhanced by the blood on their blades. Not this time. She would be in winter's vanguard, falling into the chaos, balanced on each unique snowflake wit at the ready, and blade in hand. 
The throne would stand empty until victory was won. 3 Totally Top Shelf is a bi monthly themed shopping event featuring great creators in SL.
