Prince Andhera[]
The Queen of Air and Darkness is Andhera and Suntar's mother. She is the ruler of their court, and rarely debases herself with a physical form. She did temporarily give herself form to catch some luggage Andhera angrily kicked into the ether, which was described as the kindest thing Andhera could think of or remember her doing. The Queen of Air and Darkness does seem to care for both her children, but in a distant way. Andhera wishes to prove himself to be her better child/"her best boy". He is first in line to her throne.
In Through The Hedge Maze, he tells Suntar that it's very difficult for him to look good in front of their mother.
In The Masquerade Ball, Andhera tells Binx that his mother keeps everyone separate, as sentiment was seen as a weakness. Andhera saw this as fear, which made the court and his mother angry, He would often be described as hysterical within the courts for laughing, and as such she had an elemental shard put in the back of his neck that would make it rain on him if he expressed emotions, with the intent to humiliate him.
In The Rule of Sneakery, Andhera confronts his mother, who appears to him in physical form in the tumultuous and windy mouth of a sea cave. He confronts her about the fact that the court is clearly building to something that he has not been involved with, and tells her she will include him, or it won't happen, as Suntar is incompetent, and the Queen is clearly also not able to do anything on her own, or she wouldn't have created her children to do her bidding. He elects himself to represent their court, and boldly remarks, “If this hurts your tender feelings, Mom, I would ask you to pack those down. We have work here to do.”
She is offended by this, and reminds him of all the children of hers who have died, and mocks his sentimentality and his desires to be loved and held. He responds that he has the boldness to be sentimental, a trait seen as a weakness among previous generations of unseelie royals, ("Where are they now, dear Queen?") and argues that this trait makes him more suited for mastery over his mother’s domain.
She deals twenty-eight points of psychic damage against Andhera to punish him for challenging her, but admits that she isn’t responsible for Suntar’s ideas and leaves Andhera to face off against his sister, saying “I hope you are stronger than the rest. You are bolder, certainly,” before disappearing.
Immediately after she disappears, Andhera dispels Heroism and vomits out of pent up anxiety.
