ohh, good thought about Queens not being able to kill their knights.

I didn’t read the short story in question, so the prohibition on sex, while sounding really odd and like some sort of weird afterthought by Butcher, is beyond my ken. However, the notion that a wk would have to kill the previous one doesn’t work for practical reasons; I guess most die in the field.

I could be wrong. The two instances of a transference involved a summer knight mantle being placed in a hidden unwilling host and a broadcasted ritual of sacrifice against its tortured holder. So, maybe not the typical manner of transference. What do others think are the necessary components of a knight mantle being transferred?

Loss of the mantle through vessel death or other form of removal and then transference by the empowered bestower to the new vessel. So, forfeiture, possession, transference.

So, that would mean that one individual could temporarily be the vessal for two Fae mantles at the same time. Is that possible?
