	* The Thespian Queen: Cealgran conducted a prolonged affair with Morrigan, Cealgran being drawn to the passion of a dangerous paramour and Morrigan delighted by the endless interruptions of new characters in the courtship. Finvarra discovered the affair and swore enmity with Cealgran. For her part, treated the collapse as a completed performance: she exited cleanly, satisfied that the story had reached its most devastating possible ending, and never looked back, but Finvarra knows the destruction will never be complete.		* The Thespian Queen: Cealgran conducted a prolonged affair with Morrigan, Cealgran being drawn to the passion of a dangerous paramour and Morrigan delighted by the endless interruptions of new characters in the courtship.

	* The Wayward King: Lugh's relationship with Morrigan is that of predator and prey. Morrigan hunts Lugh like a fast moving prey animal, with a joyous abandon uncommon for her, while Finvarra despises the lust he sees in his wife for the hunt and hates Lugh, and Lugh fears Finvarra's jealousy far more than Morrigan's chase.		* The Wayward King: Lugh's relationship with Morrigan is that of predator and prey.

			=Orisons=

			Almost all Orisons of the Toxic Couple are Changelings and Fetchlings. Even Orisons thought to be Mortals are likely just Changelings in disguise.

			* Sir Alvrec the Unburdened: Changeling Human, Man, Acrolon, Dark Age, Dead. A knight sent on dozens of suicide missions that were never meant to succeed, only kill him. But he survived. His armor still moves in response to vows spoken nearby.
			* Lisseneon of the Broken Thread: Changeling Elf, Woman, Pelithos, Dawn Age, Alive. A travelling midwife who has stolen hundreds of children for Morrigan, leaving baby clothes with embroidered names on them for the parents.
			* Torven Reed: Fetchling, Man, Arcadia, Dawn Age, Alive. A courier who delivers letters that describe futures that will never happen. Recipients become obsessed with preventing destinies they were never meant to reach.

	* The Giving Queen: Morrigan stalks Iobairtin with a cold, acquisitive interest, seeing her endless self-sacrifice as a weakness ripe for exploitation, while Finvarra relentlessly berates Iobairtin for what he sees as her refusal to claim a destiny of her own. Iobairtin, for her part, treats them both with infuriating compassion, responding to Morrigan’s predation with open concern and to Finvarra’s scorn with quiet disappointment. The dynamic leaves both Never Queen and Promised King deeply unsettled, as neither pursuit nor condemnation seems capable of moving her.		* The Giving Queen: Morrigan stalks Iobairtin with a cold, acquisitive interest, seeing her endless self-sacrifice as a weakness ripe for exploitation, while Finvarra relentlessly berates Iobairtin for what he sees as her refusal to claim a destiny of her own.

	* The Keening Women: Finvarra is genuinely stunned to discover that Mairnealach opposes him, having assumed that ancient witches would naturally endorse a destined hero and his promised quest. the Maiden is cool and unyielding, regarding Finvarra’s destiny as a dangerous simplification rather than a sacred truth. Morrigan behaves as if the hostility is obvious and long-earned, refusing to explain it to Finvarra, which only deepens his unease and sense that he has misunderstood the nature of his own fate.		* The Keening Women: Finvarra is genuinely stunned to discover that Mairnealach opposes him, having assumed that ancient witches would naturally endorse a destined hero and his promised quest. the Maiden is cool and unyielding, regarding Finvarra’s destiny as a dangerous simplification rather than a sacred truth.

			* The Lady of the Web: Bright Lolth and the Toxic Couple share a relationship of reciprocal pity. Lolth views Morrigan and Finvarra as pale imitations of those who seek reverence before worth, while Morrigan sees Lolth as a cautionary figure limited by self-worship. Finvarra senses the condescension on all sides and quietly resents being included in it.
	* The Sleeping Queen: Aisling and Finvarra intermittently share an languid, intimate entanglement rooted in exhaustion rather than passion, with Aisling quietly wooing him through shared stillness and promises of rest from destiny. Finvarra finds solace in her vacancy, mistaking relief for connection, and drifts into the arrangement willingly. Morrigan reacts with open wrath, sensing not betrayal of fidelity but the greater sin: Aisling offering Finvarra an escape from purpose itself.		* The Sleeping Queen: Aisling and Finvarra intermittently share an languid, intimate entanglement rooted in exhaustion rather than passion, with Aisling quietly wooing him through shared stillness and promises of rest from destiny.

Morrigan reacts with open wrath, sensing not betrayal of fidelity but the greater sin: Aisling offering Finvarra an escape from purpose itself.
			* The Spider Queen: Bleak Lolth and Morrigan work together with unsettling ease, cloaking their collaboration in banter and theatricality. Morrigan cultivates levity as armor, fully aware that a misstep would invite genuine correction from Lolth. Finvarra remains peripheral to this dynamic, unsettled by how casually his wife treats a being capable of annihilating them both.

	* The First Queen: Ceadra and the toxic couple maintain a relationship of formal distance and careful restraint. Simply, the two are intimidated by Ceadra. Morrigan distrusts Ceadra’s calm certainty and suspects that her genius hides unacceptable inevitabilities, while Finvarra finds her intolerably precise, as though she already knows how his story ends. Meanwhile, Ceadra is deeply unsettled by the violation of sequence that Morrigan and Finvarra's philosophy proposes, possibly the only real threat to her own.		* The First Queen: Ceadra and the toxic couple maintain a relationship of formal distance and careful restraint.

Morrigan makes no such effort and expresses open contempt for the Fated Court and its restraints. Finvarra, despite himself, respects their devotion to destiny, even as he believes they squander it.
	* The First Queen: Ceadra and the toxic couple maintain a relationship of formal distance and careful restraint. Simply, the two are intimidated by Ceadra. Morrigan distrusts Ceadra’s calm certainty and suspects that her genius hides unacceptable inevitabilities, while Finvarra finds her intolerably precise, as though she already knows how his story ends. Meanwhile, Ceadra is deeply unsettled by the violation of sequence that Morrigan and Finvarra's philosophy proposes, possibly the only real threat to her own.		* The First Queen: Ceadra and the toxic couple maintain a relationship of formal distance and careful restraint.

	* The Giving Queen: Morrigan stalks Iobairtin with a cold, acquisitive interest, seeing her endless self-sacrifice as a weakness ripe for exploitation, while Finvarra relentlessly berates Iobairtin for what he sees as her refusal to claim a destiny of her own. Iobairtin, for her part, treats them both with infuriating compassion, responding to Morrigan’s predation with open concern and to Finvarra’s scorn with quiet disappointment. The dynamic leaves both Never Queen and Promised King deeply unsettled, as neither pursuit nor condemnation seems capable of moving her.		* The Giving Queen: Morrigan stalks Iobairtin with a cold, acquisitive interest, seeing her endless self-sacrifice as a weakness ripe for exploitation, while Finvarra relentlessly berates Iobairtin for what he sees as her refusal to claim a destiny of her own.

	* The Keening Women: Finvarra is genuinely stunned to discover that Mairnealach opposes him, having assumed that ancient witches would naturally endorse a destined hero and his promised quest. the Maiden is cool and unyielding, regarding Finvarra’s destiny as a dangerous simplification rather than a sacred truth. Morrigan behaves as if the hostility is obvious and long-earned, refusing to explain it to Finvarra, which only deepens his unease and sense that he has misunderstood the nature of his own fate.		* The Keening Women: Finvarra is genuinely stunned to discover that Mairnealach opposes him, having assumed that ancient witches would naturally endorse a destined hero and his promised quest. the Maiden is cool and unyielding, regarding Finvarra’s destiny as a dangerous simplification rather than a sacred truth.

	* The Lady of the Web: Bright Lolth and the Toxic Couple share a relationship of reciprocal pity. Lolth views Morrigan and Finvarra as pale imitations of those who seek reverence before worth, while Morrigan sees Lolth as a cautionary figure limited by self-worship.

			* The Porcelain Queen and Grey King: Morrigan and Finvarra present themselves as allies to the Twins, offering allegiance framed as respect for wisdom and power. In truth, they regard the Twins as an existential threat: impermanence undermines incompletion entirely. Rhiannon and Arawn accept the alliance cautiously, convinced the Toxic Couple’s loyalty is hollow and potentially predatory.
	* The Sleeping Queen: Aisling and Finvarra intermittently share an languid, intimate entanglement rooted in exhaustion rather than passion, with Aisling quietly wooing him through shared stillness and promises of rest from destiny. Finvarra finds solace in her vacancy, mistaking relief for connection, and drifts into the arrangement willingly. Morrigan reacts with open wrath, sensing not betrayal of fidelity but the greater sin: Aisling offering Finvarra an escape from purpose itself.		* The Sleeping Queen: Aisling and Finvarra intermittently share an languid, intimate entanglement rooted in exhaustion rather than passion, with Aisling quietly wooing him through shared stillness and promises of rest from destiny.

	* The Spider Queen: Bleak Lolth and Morrigan work together with unsettling ease, cloaking their collaboration in banter and theatricality. Morrigan cultivates levity as armor, fully aware that a misstep would invite genuine correction from Lolth. Finvarra remains peripheral to this dynamic, unsettled by how casually his wife treats a being capable of annihilating them both.		* The Spider Queen: Bleak Lolth and Morrigan work together with unsettling ease, cloaking their collaboration in banter and theatricality.

	* The Thespian Queen: Cealgran conducted a prolonged affair with Morrigan, Cealgran being drawn to the passion of a dangerous paramour and Morrigan delighted by the endless interruptions of new characters in the courtship. Finvarra discovered the affair and swore enmity with Cealgran. For her part, treated the collapse as a completed performance: she exited cleanly, satisfied that the story had reached its most devastating possible ending, and never looked back, but Finvarra knows the destruction will never be complete.		* The Thespian Queen: Cealgran conducted a prolonged affair with Morrigan, Cealgran being drawn to the passion of a dangerous paramour and Morrigan delighted by the endless interruptions of new characters in the courtship.

	* The Wayward King: Lugh's relationship with Morrigan is that of predator and prey. Morrigan hunts Lugh like a fast moving prey animal, with a joyous abandon uncommon for her, while Finvarra despises the lust he sees in his wife for the hunt and hates Lugh, and Lugh fears Finvarra's jealousy far more than Morrigan's chase.		* The Wayward King: Lugh's relationship with Morrigan is that of predator and prey.
