I completely forgot to add to the list of maybe-not coincidences that I also really love faeries.
Also, with my GT in mind, I have generated a Land for myself.
Land of Ravens and Twilight
As a Generalist (according to the Page of Hope's GT and Land quizzes), my personal quest is to return what happens to be missing to my Land, like John's planet lacking wind despite being called the Land of Wind and Shade. Ravens are seen in Norse and Celtic mythology as being wise (*cough* Odin *cough*), and since Light is associated with knowledge, I thought it was fitting. I also just really think that faeries and ravens in a perpetual twilight setting would be a good idea.
Consorts: Cat Sidhe
Sidhe, in Celtic mythology, are known as "the people of the mounds" or "the mounds". Sidhe are also referred to as faeries, the People, or the Folk. Cats, in many cultures, particularly in Japan and Egypt, are said to be associated with knowledge, much like ravens, and faeries are said to be knowledgeable as well. I also just really like cats, so there's that too. No one ever said that Consorts could only be reptiles/amphibians.
Denizen: Aine
The Celtic goddess of the moon, she is also said to bring good luck.
”And if they ever hear my name, will they know I walked alone
Around these dusty streets, my tired old home?
And will they ever stop to think what was here before? no
They won't remember that I'm gone"
