=====The Queens===== Each Court has three Queens, '''The Queen Who Was'''(The Mother), '''The Queen Who Is'''(The Queen), and '''The Queen Who Is To Be'''(The Lady) It's worthy of note that each Queen has different duties to her court and to creation as a whole, and the Knights have different duties to each queen. Just what those duties are is rather unclear, although it's becoming somewhat less so as the series goes on, though they can't be mentioned without '''EXTREME SPOILERS'''. But in terms of power, the Ladies (Maeve and Aurora) are implied to being somewhere on par with a member of the Senior Council. The Queens are an order of magnitude above them, being far above any one mortal practitioner, with a sheer magical muscle that's speculated to rival Lesser Angels and Demon Lords. The Mothers are an order of magnitude above THEM, having a sort of limited omniscience, and being so powerful as to be more or less untouchable to anything short of a god, though the Mothers overtly use their power the least. As for the knights, it's implied that at least within winter, the Knight is a champion to the Queen, a consort to the Lady, and... Possibly a student to the mother? A punching bag? Lunch? We don't really know yet. The same may or may not be true of Summer. They're regularly equated with other "triple goddesses" such as the Greek Fates, the Scandinavian Norns, and Hecate. The Lady and The Queen keep their vassal fae in line, set policy for the Court, and look out for the interests of the Court as a whole, running the day to day operations of the Court, with The Lady being more involved in smaller affairs and The Queen handling the bigger picture. The Mothers seem to act as the spiritual matriarchs of their respective courts, not being involved in day to day affairs, but commanding immense respect throughout the entirety of the Land of Faerie, they've essentially retired from politics and instead oversee the whole of Nature itself. The Queens are forbidden to kill any human not directly involved with the fae courts, but that doesn't mean that they can't turn you into a living stone statue, enchant you into a magic slumber, turn you into a prey animal to eventually be devoured by predators, or simply beat you to within an inch of death, crippling you for life. Also, "directly involved" means anyone currently in a bargain with or in debt to winter or summer fae.
