His Royal Highness.
A term of respect for those whom we cannot ever hope to be as adorably fluffy.

@Mirabella: Aww youāre adorable! ^^ Guen got her first Fluffikins from her mother, then her second from her father, now one from Morgana. Itās in my write up lol.
@bellamyb: HRH means His/Her Royal Highness!

Cant fae pets reproduce and die happy with their fae families?
So is Lancelot adopted or did his two mums blood magic him into existence?
Itās already been stated that magic canāt create a child. Or at least, not without a male and a female participant. Lance has a father, we just donāt know who he is (and unless itās relevant to the plot, we may never find out).
Iād guess Lance is an orphan that they adopted, but I could be wrong on that.

@buggygirl11 Glad you found it! 
Probably not? At least, I canāt think of any right nowā¦ but the big three branches will have some less intense rare moments, especially with Lancelot, that wonāt come up in the majority of playthroughs. For example, Guen and Lance can end up in a bar fight in the Frankmarch branchā¦ and thereās one at Michaelsmount that I canāt wait for people to find but donāt want to spoilā¦ and a little one at Camelot that almost no one will run across, I think, but it involves raising the archersā moraleā¦ Even if Guen takes Lancelot with her on whatever branch she chooses, you still may not see those moments; it will depend on what Guen decides to do, and how she decides to make use of Lancelotās skills.
I donāt think it will really make a difference. Elaine will know right from the beginning if Lance and Guen are involved.
It can be poly in the sense that everyone knows what everyone else is doing and is okay with it, but not in the sense that Guen and Elaine would have a romantic or sexual relationship with each other.
Sort of, maybe, but not exactly? According to my current plan, Guen would be able to have some relationship time with Arthur and also with either Morgana or Lancelot ā but not both Morgana and Lancelot, because if Guen got involved with both of them, Morgana will have broken things off by then.
Hoping I can come through with this, though they wonāt have broken the lust spell by then, so things may still be somewhat in question.
Not ruling it out!
They can reproduce, but they donāt usually pass their fae nature down to their offspring. Itās rare ā assuming they have several litters over the course of their lifetime, maybe like one or two out of all their babies might inherit fae powers. Thatās part of why fae animals are relatively rare.
@OtherGrimm is as correct as always. Lancelotās mother came to Avalon for sanctuary when she was pregnant, and died not long after he was born, at which point Vivien and Vathac adopted Lancelot. He finds out more about his biological parents in his prequel story.

So, where do the majority of fae creatures come from? (Including the fae wolf and fae people like Merlin.) Is it just a rare genetic mutation like gigantism, mental illnesses, etc, or are they normally created through other means? Like being bitten by a radioactive fae.

Theyāre the product of mating between a fae and a human or animal. Fae almost never mate with humans (itās happened, like, maybe three total times, ever, in the Guenverse). They take animal form and mate with animals more often, so there are more animals with fae blood than humans, but fae animals are still pretty rare.

So, is Merlin the result of something like that? And why donāt they mate with humans often? And what is a fae in the Gueneverse?
So Iām assuming Merlin is a human/fae chid (canāt remember if youāve mentioned it or not)- does Lanval exist/existed in Guenverse as well? (Iām also guessing Pelles doesnāt get with any fae ladies, as Vivien is taken, though I suppose we havenāt seen Nimue yet.)

So in order for Guen to succeed at getting a relationship with both Lance and Morgana (since we cant lie to her) weād have to be with Morgana ultil then or can she break up and then later on they can make up??
So does that mean Elaine is a possible romance option? An f/f one?
Jean literally just said ānoā to that question.
Elaine and Guen will be able to be friends, but nothing more.

Yep, Merlin had a human father and fae mother.
Most fae donāt like humans very much. They see humans, especially humans of reproductive age, as boring and/or destructive. They have more patience for children and the elderly, both of whom they see as less destructive and more changeable, the way the fae world is changeable.
Guenverse fae are basically medieval fairies, which are massively different from Victorian Tinkerbell-style fairies. For one thing, theyāre bigger, unless they donāt want to be ā they can change shape rather drastically. Theyāre extremely dangerous, and they donāt particularly value human life. They inhabit an otherworld, also called fae, that overlaps with our own but is separate from it. Other than that, not much is known about them. Most humans would agree that itās best to stay out of their way.
I donāt have plans for Lanval to show up as a character in the story. If I decide for sure that Iām never going to use him for anything else, I might give his name to Merlinās human father, just as a little nod. But Iām sort of holding him in reserve at the moment, in case I decide I need him for something after all.
Right. Nimue herself isnāt fae in this version, though she has a significant connection to it.
Iām actually not sure yet; I need to see how Morgana āfeelsā as things move forward. Itās entirely possible that the only way to have a relationship with both is to be in a relationship with Morgana for years and then invite Lancelot in once Morgana trusts Guen completely and has also changed her thinking about Lancelot. I expect thatās the more likely scenario, since Morgana does ask Guen to promise not to get involved with Lancelot, and is unlikely to forgive her for breaking that promise or ever completely trust her again.
Just friends (or adversaries, if you prefer). Elaine wonāt be interested in a romantic or sexual relationship with Guen.

@jeantown Is Elaine asexual and/or aromantic? Or is she just not interested in Lancelot or Guen?
