Winter Court

Autumn wanes as the cold and darkness sweep through the land. Winter has come. The air is frigid and unforgiving. Trees become leafless, the area covered in ice and snow, many creatures take shelter from the lower temperatures while others thrive in it. The days are short and the nights are longer, various creatures who prefer the dark often lurk and roam in the land of endless winter. The ruler of Winter is the undisputed Queen of Air and Darkness, colloquially referred to as Queen Mab, though her original name is lost the ravages of time. There is also the Prince of Frost, a creature \who ripped their own heart out their devotion only to be forsaken by his love, leaving a cold, empty void that can never be fulfilled. While the Prince of Frost is a deadly and powerful force on his own, all Winter fey know that the Queen is the real supreme leader.
Winter often symbolizes death, the end of a cycle, cold and harsh weather, but through Winter, Spring shall bloom again. So Winter has a vital part to play in the sequence of the seasons, often severing as the time nature sleeps to be born again. Darkness is usually an excellent symbol for secrets, mysteries, and illusions. But during these harsh times, creatures often bond and form communities to ensure the tough times, there are fey that reside within Winter but serve to bring warmth and good tidings to all beings. The Winter court as the Gloaming Court or sometimes referred to as the seat of the Unseelie Court.
There are several lesser Courts within the Winter Court. The Court of Shadows, Court of the White Oak and the Court of the Moon
