House of Sorrows

Though like the Summer Fae in many respects, the Winter Fae will always stand apart—as different as a blossoming rose and a withered briar. Embodying the decay and entropy of nature, it was the wont of these Winter Fae to fragment, quarrel, and disperse. Years of infighting and subterfuge had long prevented the Winter Fae from forming a court of their own, but that changed with the rise of the House of Sorrows, and the Fae known as the Weeping King.

Though now long-since dead, the Weeping King preached the worship of decay and decomposition. The members of the House of Sorrows have carried on his traditions for centuries, tending to the perpetual decay of the world around them and honoring its passing with solemn reverence.

However, as war swept their homelands and the Tuatha rose to power, compromises were made. The House sought peace with the Tuatha at the price of their ideals. As a sign of cooperation, they appointed as their King the severe and enigmatic Bisarane.

Now, the House of Sorrows finds itself in a shadow war with a Tuatha named Saturnyn, and no one’s allegiance is known for certain. Only an outsider can unmask the traitors and save the Winter Fae from annihilation.
