Seelie Courts

The Seelie Kingdom is divided into courts. Each court is ruled by a Prince and/or Princess who answers to the Seelie King and/or Queen. The ruler of the court is responsible for their castle and the surrounding towns and farms. Seelie courts are generally named for a flower or tree, with the exception of the secretive Mist Court.

The rulers' are styled as "the [court name] Prince/Princess." For example, Leith is the prince of the Rose Court, so he's known as the Rose Prince.
