The reason the Faewild is the Faewild is that it's a git repo where the owner just accepts every single pull request reflexively. The only thing which stops a Fae from getting accidentally poofed from existence is a contract with beings on another plane (it's a legacy dependency, can't delete).

Every single person who told me to "just watch the Bonhart fight" owes me because while the choreography is fun the absolute insanity of him singing and dancing down the stairs gave me psychic damage. Great job on ruining my favourite scene in the book. What the fuck did they do to him.
