Not quite. He said that the Erlking got his power through a rite of ascension and that's why Kemmler's Darkhallow formula involved the Erlking, but nothing was said about the Erlking's nature pre-rite of ascension. Ditto the Queens.
(And the *power/position* of Queens seem to preexist that rite, 'a power older than time' per SK, so presumably the Stone Table rite established the current 'dynasty' of Queens rather than creating the power/position of Faerie Queens.)

What of the recent but substantive body of evidence validating the impact of behavioral change on lymbic vs. prefrontal cortex dominance, neuroadaption, and neurogenesis using diagnostic imaging (SPECT, PET, and FMRI) pre and post studies? I'm having a tough time reconciling your argument with research linking personality, habit, emotional reactivity, etc. to sustained behavioral change. And we can map those changes neurologically.
Essentially, the old floor of your past can be covered over by layers of new events, like sediment drifting to the bottom of the ocean. Neither genetic predisposition nor past choices determine who you are, rather you choose what your past will become by what you do each moment. I disagree that anyone is constrained by personal history toward being honorable or no. I don't think the issue of Mab's integrity is sullied by the fact she can't lie. After all, the Fae have gotten pretty crafty about misleading and manipulating without actually lying.
And yes, Mab is one tough cookie, hot mama jama, ice cold bee otch queen. She would make me quiver, drool, and poop my pants. All at the same time.
Magnus:
another thing, I just thought of, we knew Bob did something to Mab, but maybe it was Molly he did it too, we know he always want to see her naked, and maybe something happened.
Hmm, the trouble is just that it seems to happen in the wrong end of the timeline for bob then.
I need to think more about that.
