 {{Breadcrumb Court of Four}}

The Court of Four was one of the [[Ancient Courts]] of [[Arcadia]], formed in the early [[Shattered Age]]. It was founded by the [[Fey Gods]], [[The Keening Women]].

The Court was an exploration of the [[Strange Essence]] of Quantity. It was founded on a philosophy of numerological beliefs. The Keening Women believed that meaning is found in the understanding the numeric patterns of the universe. The Court was populated by the [[Hags]].

After [[The War of Erasure]] caused the separation of [[Bright]] and [[Bleak]] philosophical inflections, The Court of Four was altered when its founding member left the coven to create [[The Eleventh Court]]. The Court of Four was renamed The Court of Three, and they became concerned more specifically with numerological cardinality - how many things there are is the the most important aspect of meaning.

The Keening Women irrationally deny that [[The First Queen]] was ever part of their Court, or that their Court was ever known as The Court of Four. Arguing the point is an excellent way to earn their enmity.
