History YMMV / ACourtOfThornsAndRoses

* RelationshipWritingFumble: Mor and Cassian are intended to be LikeBrotherAndSister, but some of their interactions make it seem more like they're romantically/sexually attracted to each other. For starters, Mor ''lost her virginity to Cassian''; although Mor says she mostly did it to get out of her arranged marriage, Cassian was quite willing to go along with it. Then there's Cassian's protectiveness of Mor and her using him as a buffer from Azriel (who has unrequited romantic feelings for her), which frequently includes her flirting with him. Mor also becomes quite possessive of Cassian whenever Nesta is around (whom Cassian is mated to), inserts herself between them and warns Nesta to stay away from him. Cassian himself often acts as if he's done something wrong if Mor catches him with Nesta and he tries to avoid being with her when Mor is about. One could argue Mor is just looking out for her friend given Nesta's prickliness, but the reactions from both of them can make it seem more like a woman being territorial over her crush and said crush not wanting to make her jealous.

%%* UnfortunateImplications: The mating bond is presented by Feyre and [[spoiler:Rhysand]] as something beautiful, but it has some rather [[FridgeHorror horrific implications]] when you take off the rose-colored glasses. When the bond is set, the man becomes obsessed and possessive with their mated woman, even if ''she doesn't want it''. And it is briefly acknowledged in-universe as something can can be messy. But that doesn't change the fact that it turns a man into a StalkerWithACrush, nor the fact that the woman accepts it by [[StayInTheKitchen presenting the man with food]]. There's also the fact that the books never delve into the possibility that the pairs may be asexual or gay, or what's supposed to happen if IncompatibleOrientation. This ends up coming across as accepted stalking at best, abuse at worse, and extremely heteronormative.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation:
** Tamlin is subject to this quite a lot. Was he always just a cruel, self-absorbed manchild who is capable of putting on a charming and friendly act to reel Feyre in, before revealing his true colors when she doesn't comply with what he wants? Or is he a deeply flawed but well-meaning person who is struggling (relatively alone) with decades' worth of trauma and feels compelled to go to extreme measures to protect Feyre, with the horror of seeing her tortured and killed in front of him sending him over the edge?
** Rhysand has been presented in-universe and out as championing women's rights and equality, but some have questioned whether Rhysand's treatment of women is ''really'' that progressive. He has banned Illyrians from clipping women's wings and demands the women be allowed to train as warriors, but he doesn't appear to do much to actively encourage or enforce this (Cassian is the one training the women, with Rhysand occasionally turning up at camps to dish out threats to men who complain too loudly). He gives Mor shelter and an important position in his court, yet allows her blatantly abusive and sexist father to control an entire city (presumably making the lives of many women there a misery) rather than remove him or curb his power. He emphasizes that Feyre should be able to make her own choices, though he sometimes manipulates or forces her into doing things, or keeps her from knowing important information that directly affects her, if it suits him. He grants Feyre [[spoiler:the title of High Lady and insists she is his equal]], but considering [[spoiler:her lack of involvement in politics it can come off as merely ceremonial]], and her position and livelihood hinges entirely on her being [[spoiler:his [[NeverASelfMadeWoman wife]]]]. Outside of the Night Court, he also publically presents himself as a hedonist who treats women as sex objects - including forcing Feyre into skimpy outfits, drugging her and getting her to perform lap dances for him. While he is [[CruelToBeKind trying to protect Feyre]] by 'claiming' her for himself, it doesn't change the fact his treatment of her here borders on or crosses into sexual harassment/assault. Some readers find that Rhysand is only "feminist" when it's convenient for him and that while he comparatively treats women better than a lot of [[NoWomansLand Prythian]]'s inhabitants, [[DamnedByFaintPraise this isn't exactly saying much]].
** In ''A Court of Mist and Fury'', Rhysand is revealed to be NotEvilJustMisunderstood: he's actually a benevolent and compassionate High Lord who puts on a show of being a hedonistic tyrant to keep the Night Court safe from Amarantha and other enemies. However, there are increasing numbers of readers who interpret his more villainous portrayal in ''A Court of Thorns and Roses'' as not being ''entirely'' an act after all, pointing out that he primarily rules through fear (and clearly thinks this is a good way of doing things, calling Tamlin weak for not doing the same), condones physical and psychological torture for a 'good' cause, enjoys manipulating and tormenting others if he can get away with it, and has few compunctions around deceiving and violating the boundaries of even his closest loved ones. Interestingly, we largely see Rhysand's 'redemption' through the eyes of Feyre's first-person POV, which coincides with her [[spoiler:falling in love with him and recovering from trauma with his help]]; many readers have noted that Rhysand comes off far less favorably when described from Nesta's third-person POV. It could be argued both [=POVs=] are biased in their own way (Feyre idealizes Rhys [[spoiler:out of love for him]], while Nesta and Rhys share a mutual dislike for the other).
** Tamlin's involvement in [[spoiler:the murder of Rhysand's mother and sister]] is left rather ambiguous. It's stated that he told his father and brothers where they would be and he was present during [[spoiler:the murders]], but it's never stated or implied that he actually took part or what he was doing at all during this. Given that Tamlin and Rhys genuinely were friends prior to this and that Tamlin [[spoiler:burnt the wings of Rhys' family that his father took as trophies]] and never talks about it, it's indicated he took no pleasure in what happened. Adding in the fact that Tamlin's father and brothers are said to have been extremely cruel and felt threatened by him, it doesn't seem implausible Tamlin could've been forced or coerced into complying. One should also consider that Tamlin and his family believed Rhysand himself would be present; did Tamlin believe that Rhys would be capable of defending himself against his father and brothers, only for this to go awry when he didn't show up? Adding to the ambiguity is that we've never heard Tamlin's perspective on the incident, only Rhysand's, and he himself states he doesn't fully understand Tamlin's motives.
** The Inner Circle. A group of flawed but ultimately good-hearted people who form a [[TrueCompanions loyal and tightknit]] [[FamilyOfChoice found family]], helping each other heal from trauma while ruling benevolently over the Night Court? Or a [[DysfunctionJunction dysfunctional]] and emotionally-stunted group who are unhealthily co-dependent and insular, blindly obey Rhysand even when it comes to his more questionable decisions, and regularly justify or excuse their less-savory actions as being the result of trauma or 'for the greater good' while [[MoralMyopia condemning similar behavior in outsiders]]? Do they lie somewhere in the middle?
** Is Feyre and [[spoiler:Rhysand]]'s relationship an ideal romance between equals, or is it just as unhealthy as Feyre and Tamlin's relationship, albeit in a different way?
*** While [[spoiler:Rhysand]] isn't ''blatantly'' controlling and emotionally abusive the way Tamlin is, he can arguably be controlling and manipulative towards Feyre in more subtle ways, and he's not above hiding important things from her and violating her boundaries if he thinks it's 'for her own good' or it serves his own purposes. He coerces her into [[spoiler:spending one week every month with him]] in exchange for saving her life, so their romance starts out as an abduction much like her romance with Tamlin. Although he insists she gets to make her own choices, she notably never makes any major choices he doesn't already agree with. And though he makes Feyre High Lady of his court, many point out that it comes across as a hollow gesture because Feyre has shown little political know-how; it's further confounded in the novella and ''Silver Flames'' where despite Feyre supposedly being his equal, [[spoiler:Rhysand]] is ''very much'' the one in charge. Readers have noted that despite Feyre's aversion to being a consort whose main role is producing heirs, this is exactly what ends up happening in later books, the only difference being it's with [[spoiler:Rhysand]] instead of [[spoiler:Tamlin]].
*** Their romance is depicted as helping them heal from trauma, though one could argue they're actually [[LivingEmotionalCrutch co-dependent]]: when they get together they've both ''just'' come out of abusive relationships and Feyre goes so far as crediting [[spoiler:Rhysand]] with her recovery from PTSD, referring to him as "My lover who had healed my broken and weary soul". They even make what is essentially a magical suicide pact as they can't bear to live without each other. The age-gap and power dynamics between the pair have also raised some eyebrows; during their initial courtship [[spoiler:Rhysand]] is over 500 years old and an experienced [[spoiler:High Lord]], while Feyre is barely out of her teens, has lived in Prythian a little over a year and is extremely vulnerable emotionally-speaking.
** Eris. Our first impressions of him, especially via the accounts of his youngest brother Lucien and ex-fiancee Mor, are not ''at all'' flattering, presenting him as being just as cruel and tyrannical as his father. However, taking into account Eris' claims that Feyre and others don't know the full story behind some of his supposedly worst acts and that he was actually trying to help Mor and Lucien in subtle ways, some readers have begun speculating that he's actually more like Rhysand in the first book; he's pragmatic and manipulative, but putting up a facade of being a complete asshole to keep his true intentions hidden, while disguising his more benevolent acts (especially given how cutthroat and Machiavellian both the [[DecadentCourt Autumn Court]] and [[RoyallyScrewedUp his own family]] are).
** Azriel, particularly in regards to his love life. Is he a socially-awkward DoggedNiceGuy who doesn't really understand how to navigate romantic relationships beyond devoting himself to the object of his affection and just hoping she reciprocates one day? Or is he more of an obsessive StalkerWithACrush who acts entitled and possessive over any woman who shows him affection (even if it's not intended as romantic) and ignores obvious hints she doesn't feel the same? In one of his bonus chapters, Rhysand even calls out Azriel for suggesting he ''deserves'' a mate.
** In ''Wings and Embers'', Nesta seems okay with Cassian kissing her neck until he licks her, which causes her to shove him away and insult him when he says she's too uptight. Cassian suggests she feels conflicted because she thinks of him as beneath her yet finds him attractive and/or because he caused her to temporarily lose control. Or is her reaction potentially because it triggered her memories of the time she was almost raped, which she'd been thinking about just a few minutes before?

** Morrigan (Mor). Some like her for being a cheerful and unashamed {{hard drinking party girl}} who overcame a past of abuse and trauma, and provides a positive example of female friendship via her bond with Feyre. Others find her to be one of the most boring members of Inner Circle who rarely displays any of the exceptional power she's claimed to have, or do anything of significance at all. Some also found Mor to be insensitive for the way she handled Azriel's unrequited crush on her, arguing she had centuries to let him know she wasn't interested and that her using Cassian as a buffer is immature for someone who's five centuries old; others would argue that was on Azriel for not taking a hint. Her treatment of Nesta in ''A Court of Silver Flames'' especially landed in her in hot water with several readers, who felt Mor came off as hypocritical, disproportionately hostile or downright cruel to her. Finally, Mor's bisexuality has resulted in ''many'' debates among fans over how well it's handled (see BrokenBase for details).
** Amren became this following ''A Court of Wings and Ruin'', and especially after ''A Court of Silver Flames''. Amren was popular amongst readers for her enigmatic nature and "take-no-shit" attitude, so some readers were happy that she [[spoiler:came back to life after sacrificing herself]] at the end of ''Wings and Ruin''. However, other readers weren't so keen, arguing that her [[spoiler:dying in this way was a fitting bittersweet end to her arc and her survival came off as an AssPull]]. The way her character is handled in subsequent books also resulted in even some readers who liked her wishing she'd [[spoiler:stayed dead]]; she's been criticized for being far less interesting after turning into [[spoiler:a standard High Fae]], and doing little but making patronizing or nasty comments, especially towards a PTSD-stricken Nesta.

** Mor being revealed as bisexual with a preference for women opens ''several'' cans of worms. Some readers like that the series has a prominent and heroic bisexual character (who isn't defined solely by her sexuality, either). However, other readers felt the way it was handled is a bit clumsy, if not outright problematic: Mor had previously only been depicted having relationships with men and is merely mentioned as having had a female lover many years ago, which made her bisexuality seem like a tacked-on InformedAttribute to some. Some readers also took issue with the fact that Mor says she mostly sleeps around with men to get [[DoggedNiceGuy Azriel to take a hint]] then looks downright ''miserable'' after the fact (which led to some debate amongst fans as to whether she was really bisexual or actually a lesbian, opening up yet ''more'' cans of worms); some readers also feel it plays into the stereotype that bisexual people are always promiscuous. Then there's the scene where Mor comes out to Feyre. There are some who find the scene to be well-done and adding great insight to Mor's character. For others it's dampened by Feyre's previous behavior, as until then Feyre was basically [[ShipperOnDeck rooting for Mor/Azriel]] to the point where Rhys flat out tells Feyre that it's none of her business; some readers find it a little hard not to see it as Feyre ''forcing'' Mor to come out because Feyre's ship wasn't happening.
** The situation between Azriel and Mor is a common point of debate. Azriel has been in love with Mor for centuries and isn’t subtle about his feelings, but while she teases and jokingly flirts with him, she never properly reciprocates and frequently goes off with other men. She later reveals to Feyre she prefers being with women but hadn’t felt comfortable telling Azriel this. Some readers find Mor unsympathetic for this, arguing that while her not wanting to share her sexual orientation with him was understandable she could've still been clearer that it was never going to happen between them, with these readers feeling that she was almost leading Azriel on for hundreds of years. Other readers think that Azriel should've just backed off and moved on, reasoning that in all the time they knew each other Mor never showed signs of being seriously interested in him so you'd think he'd take the hint. And some think they both handled the situation poorly.

** The series' depictions of mental health and trauma recovery. There are some who praise Feyre's recovery arc after ''A Court of Thorns and Roses'' and appreciate [[spoiler:Rhysand]]'s a well (especially for subverting the notion that men can't be sexually assaulted). However, some have also argued that Feyre's trauma is still heavily romanticized as she had resolved herself to suffer in silence before being taken to the Night Court, with a lot of her episodes tend to happen behind closed doors where no one can see and where Feyre can't lash out at anyone so no one else is caught in the crossfire. Compounding it further is that [[spoiler:Rhys]] ends up being the one to provide the tools she needs to recover, and it's one of the reasons she falls for him, playing straight into the problematic notion of 'needing' a boyfriend to save you from your mental illness. Detractors would also argue that afterward Feyre's trauma is cured just like that, as opposed to her learning to live with it and work her way through the good and bad days. This is made even worse with characters like Tamlin (see UnintentionallySympathetic), Lucian (see DesignatedMonkey), and Nesta whose trauma is treated with mockery and dismissed as something they need to "get over." This has lead some readers to feel as though a character's trauma and struggles are only valid if their names are Feyre and [[spoiler:Rhysand]].

[[folder:D to

[[folder:A to F]]

[[folder:H to W]]
* HarsherInHindsight: Near the end of the first book, when Amarantha is torturing Feyre to death and demanding she deny her love for Tamlin, Feyre declares that nothing Amarantha can do will stop her from loving Tamlin. [[spoiler:Come the second book, the trauma Amarantha inflicted upon the couple ends up playing a large role in Feyre and Tamlin's highly acrimonious break-up]].
* HypeBacklash: ''A Court of Thorns and Roses'' became one of the most popular and bestselling young adult fantasy book series in the mid-to-late 2010s, continuing into the 2020s (alongside Creator/SarahJMaas' other fantasy series ''Literature/ThroneOfGlass''), in particular being praised for its feminist themes and strong female protagonist. However, backlash started to kick in round about when the novella was published in 2018 and intensified after the release of ''A Court of Silver Flames'' in 2021, with readers becoming a lot more critical of the series due to these installments highlighting already-existing flaws. While the books definitely do have a large fanbase still, increasingly readers have been finding the series a sub-standard example of a {{feminist fantasy}} due to issues such as questionable prose, problematic depictions of romantic relationships, and hypocritical messages around abuse and trauma.

* ShippingBedDeath: For some Feyre/[[spoiler: Rhysand]] shippers, their actual relationship became tedious to read about after they got together, especially by ''A Court of Frost and Starlight''. The main criticisms brought up is that the story tends to shift the focus to their relationship even though there's other, more important things going on like the war with Hybern, and their relationship itself is mostly devoid of conflict and dramatic tension after the second book, consisting largely of them [[CoitusEnsues hooking up]] and constantly reiterating how much they love each other. Some readers also didn't appreciate the way [[spoiler: Tamlin]] got derailed as a love interest to make way for [[spoiler: Rhysand]]. This only worsened after the fifth book, due to many readers increasingly finding [[spoiler:Rhysand]]'s behavior problematic, while Feyre/the narrative constantly excuses it, making their dynamic come off as toxic.

** Nesta in ''A Court of Silver Flames''. While she can be a rude, standoffish jerk to the Inner Circle and needs to find better coping mechanisms for her trauma, the way everyone acts like she's the worst person ever for this comes off as disproportionate.[[note]]Especially coming from people who've done things like torture, murder, and starting civil wars for petty reasons[[/note]] Nesta's behavior is a largely self-destructive response to PTSD, yet the Inner Circle treat her with utter contempt and debate exiling her into hostile territory, [[note]]either the human lands where she'd never fit in, or the Court of Nightmares[[/note]] just because they personally dislike her and find her "embarrassing", also taking the time to mock and slut-shame her when she's at her lowest. They're also aware Nesta has powers she can't fully control, yet seriously consider abandoning her in a place she could endanger both herself and others. Feyre's solution is to lock Nesta up in the House of Wind and force her to train in [[HeManWomanHater Illyrian]] [[NoWomansLand war camps]] against her will. [[note]]Nesta's told it's a choice but it's really not; she can't leave unless she's willing to walk down 10,000 steps, it's made clear she wouldn't be welcome back in the safety of Velaris, and Feyre at one point says she'll have Nesta physically dragged there.[[/note]] She's also forced to be around Cassian, which she's made clear upsets her. Considering that one of the things Nesta ''does'' value is her ability to choose for herself, it's hard not to pity her now that this has also been taken away, and how little everyone around her seems to care for her. It doesn't help that she was completely right to tell Feyre [[spoiler:her pregnancy was extremely high risk]] when everyone else hid the truth, for which Rhysand threatens to ''kill her''.

* {{Narm}}: The Inner Circle's utter horror over how much Nesta spent at a bar ("500 gold marks") can become this considering that in the same chapter, it's stated that Feyre and [[spoiler:Rhysand]] have ''five'' houses ''and'' just finished renovating a gargantuan riverside mansion. The description of Feyre crying into her scrambled eggs about it doesn't help due to the unintentional melodrama.

** In ''A Court of Silver Flames'' a lot of drama is generated from [[spoiler:Feyre's pregnancy, as her body is ill-equipped to safely give birth to a part-Illyrian child. However, some readers had a hard time buying that a civilization that's technologically advanced enough to have indoor plumbing ''plus'' healing magic couldn't handle a C-section]].

** There were some readers who shipped Feyre with Lucien over Tamlin in the first book, enjoying their banter and growing respect for each other; it helps that Lucien physically shields Feyre from Rhysand and lies that she's his fiancée to protect her, they both come to each other’s rescue Under the Mountain and Lucien seems just as devastated as Tamlin by Feyre's death. In the second book Lucien also seems more aware than Tamlin of Feyre's mental state and attempts to coax him into supporting her better, with a few readers even getting the impression Lucien would end up as a canonical romantic rival. By the end of the second book though, most shippers realized it was never going to happen because it's made clear Feyre and [[spoiler:Rhysand]] were the OfficialCouple of the series; many remaining hold-outs were subsequently turned off the ship due to Feyre's rather poor treatment of Lucien in the third book, which even included her tricking Tamlin into believing they were an item to manipulate them.

* WhatAnIdiot:
** The Archeron family are desperately poor and primarily rely on Feyre's hunting to get by. However, it's mentioned that Elain - who loves gardening - is able to maintain a small flower garden outside their cottage. Which begs the question: why didn't any of them think of trying to grow vegetables?
** In the first book, Feyre's encounter with the shapeshifting puca in the manor garden, which she genuinely believes is her father. This is despite the fact that a) she knows some faeries can shapeshift and b) there's no logical explanation for her father getting there (he has a crippled leg and no wilderness survival skills - she even considers the possibility he came on a horse despite her family lacking the means to obtain horses - he has no idea where Feyre was taken in Prythian, and Feyre herself describes him as not the kind of man who would venture into faerie territory to save his captured daughter). In spite of all this, Feyre is immediately taken in by the illusion and isn't even a ''little'' suspicious.
** Who would have thought that a place where a magical artifact is stored and where there are no guards could actually be a trap?
** Turns out starting a civil war in the Court closest to the very wall the enemy wants to bring down is a bad idea.
** Your PTSD-riddled sister is getting out of control? Send her to a war camp! [[SarcasmMode That won't make it worse!]]
** At the end of ''A Court of Wings and Ruin'' Feyre and Rhys make a magical pact that [[spoiler:if one of them dies so will the other]]. Besides the co-dependency issue, considering they're [[spoiler:co-rulers of the Night Court]] it would [[spoiler:leave the government leaderless and unstable, and possibly endanger the civilians]]. It only gets worse in ''A Court of Silver Flames'' after [[spoiler:Feyre becomes pregnant, as if anything were to happen to one of them it would guarantee their child was orphaned, and it directly makes things even ''worse'' in the climax when Feyre nearly dies in childbirth]]. Several readers considered it stupid at best, selfish and irresponsible at worst.

** There were some readers who shipped Feyre with Lucien over Tamlin in the first book, enjoying their banter and growing respect for each other; it helps that Lucien physically shields Feyre from Rhysand and lies that she's his fiancée to protect her, they both come to each other’s rescue Under the Mountain and Lucien seems just as devastated as Tamlin's by Feyre's death. In the second book Lucien also seems more aware than Tamlin of Feyre's mental state and attempts to coax him into supporting her better, with a few readers even getting the impression Lucien would end up as a canonical romantic rival. By the end of the second book though, most shippers realized it was never going to happen because it's made clear Feyre and [[spoiler:Rhysand]] were the OfficialCouple of the series; many remaining hold-outs were subsequently turned off the ship due to Feyre's rather poor treatment of Lucien in the third book, which even included her tricking Tamlin into believing they were an item to manipulate them.

** In ''Empire of Storms'', after one sexual encounter Feyre notes that [[spoiler:Rhysand]]'s climax was so magically powerful that [[DestructoNookie it made all the trees around them explode into splinters.]] Many readers found the mental image of "[[spoiler:Rhys]] nutting so hard he makes the trees explode" to be a [[MoodWhiplash rather jarring tonal shift]] and [[{{Narm}} more hilarious than sexy.]]

** Azriel, to a lesser degree; he's been shipped with Mor, Elain, Gwyn, Lucien and Cassian.

* RelationshipWritingFumble: Mor and Cassian are intended to be LikeBrotherAndSister, but some of their interactions make it seem more like they're romantically/sexually attracted to each other. For starters, Mor ''lost her virginity to Cassian''; although Mor says she mostly did it to get out of her arranged marriage, Cassian was quite willing to go along with it. Then there's Cassian's protectiveness of Mor and her using him as a buffer from Azriel (who has unrequited romantic feelings for her), which frequently includes her flirting with him. Mor also becomes quite possessive of Cassian whenever Nesta is around (whom Cassian is mated to), inserts herself between them and warns Nesta to stay away from him. Cassian himself often acts as if he's done something wrong if Mor catches him with Nesta and he tries to avoid being with her when Mor is about. One could argue Nesta is just looking out for her friend given Nesta's prickliness, but the reactions from both of them can make it seem more like a woman being territorial over her crush and said crush not wanting to make her jealous.

* ViewerNameConfusion: There's a bit of debate amongst readers over how to pronounce Rhysand's name. His nickname of Rhys is a real given name (Welsh in origin) pronounced the same as Reese, so some naturally assume Rhysand is pronounced "reese-and". However, others pronounce it as "rye-sand" or even "ris-and". Eventually, a pronunciation guide was released stating it's pronounced "reese-and", though some readers still find it confusing or hard to adjust after spending years pronouncing it differently. Funnily enough, a few readers admitted they pronounced his nickname as "''reese''" but his full name as "''rye''-sand". Readers who are unfamiliar with the name Rhys were also known to say it as "rice" or "rise", adding to the confusion.

%% * {{Narm}}: In ''A Court of Frost and Starlight'' it's mentioned that [[spoiler:Rhysand and Feyre]] had sex [[MakingLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces in the sky while flying over Velaris]]. And that they were so passionate they nearly crashed into someone's roof. The whole situation conjures up some hilarious imagery, especially considering it's such a wildly impractical location to get it on and the likelihood several citizens would have spotted them.

** Many readers believe that Tamlin's lowest moments i.e. [[spoiler: locking Feyre up in his manor and allying with Hybern]], define him as a character and previous characterization present in ''A Court of Thorns and Roses'' was just a facade.

** The Archeron family are desperately poor and primarily rely on Feyre's hunting to get by. However, it's mentioned that Elain - who loves gardening - is able to maintain a small flower garden outside their cottage. cottage. Which begs the question: why didn't any of them think of trying to grow vegetables?

* EscapistCharacter: Feyre. She goes from an impoverished, unappreciated and relatively ordinary girl to the love interest of not one, but ''two'' extremely attractive and powerful faerie lords, is turned into a Fae herself with all kinds of rare abilities, helps save the world from Hybern and [[spoiler: becomes High Lady of the Night Court, living in peace and comfort for the rest of her life in a beautiful city surrounded by all her friends and family]].
