From the perspective of the destruction of the Lady mantle, the Knight could possible impregnate the Lady as long as she didn't give birth.  Since Lily and Maeve didn't give birth, given the continued existence of their mantle, I think we can assume the Knight didn't impregnate either.  I think it may be possible for the Lady to push the envelope to such a degree that they could have sex with and, if so, get impregnated by the Knight.

Transformation, Our prophet Einstein says so. If it didn't realign the courts directly it would transform the Mantle from it's current formation... in essence giving birth to a new form anyway.
*wait now, where's our current Molly's Jenny Greenteeth/high priestess?

raidem:
A transformation would occur whether that is destruction but energy is left or mantle changes into some mantle other than Lady is a question. I'd say it destroys the mantle, and the power would need to be reabsorbed into the Stone Table to be refashioned in at least one case.

I'm waiting to see who Molly chooses as her second.  It need not be a woman.

jonas:
Look at what Maeve was actually trying to do and even Lea, being beyond the WQ's control. They were trying to separate the identity from Winter rule itself. Not just replace Mab. The Mantle is spirit, tied into the forces of creation itself, the mantle itself is a container for an elemental power of reality. Destroy only the container and the spirit itself is free to find it's own manifestation, assuming it doesn't just stay with the one it already has made in response. unless intentionally subverted into a new form, as would be simply remaking the mantle. So it's impossible to take the mantle apart without birthing something new in response even if directly from a higher up to maintain a balance instead of from the resulting action itself. Probably why they are called the Mothers(also they created all the mantles, that's where they got the title so..)

groinkick:
Based on what Mab said I think it is possible for the Lady to get pregnant.  The Mantle will not destroy the fetus.  As a matter of fact the opposite would happen, the fetus would destroy the Mantle, or it would leave the Lady or something like that.  That's why the Mantle defended itself.  If it was easy for the Mantle to destroy the fetus, there would be no need to stop sex from happening.
