Title: The Mother's Cottage
Post by: seanham on January 07, 2024, 02:59:42 AM
During a recent reread of Summer Knight, I noticed a strange detail that Harry pointed out about the Mother's Cottage. It had a Snowflake on the front door. This cottage is where both of the Mother's live so why is there a snowflake on the door? This is a small detail, but I find it interesting. Maybe Mother Summer once lived in a different house? If so why did she move?

Maybe it's seasonal decorations. It's summer's time of power so it's winter's time to decorate.

Because when Hecate split her power into the mantles to sponsor the fae courts, she took the Mother Winter mantle for herself to regain immortality. Thus, the power of both fae courts is hers. The snowflake on the Mother's cottage is merely acknowledging that fact.
