Sidhe Elder

This Sidhe was one of many Sidhe elders, who were kings among the Sidhe in Avalon.

Biography
A short time after the birth of Lord Godwyn's daughter, Princess Elena, the elder came and cast a spell on her. He created a Sidhe inside her who would completely possess her when she married Arthur Pendragon. He had his Pixie servant, Grunhilda, become her nurse and sprinkle Sidhe dust on her every night as she slept.

Aulfric came to the Sidhe elder to plead that his daughter be returned to Avalon and he promised the soul of a mortal prince Arthur Pendragon. This plan was foiled by Merlin (The Gates of Avalon).

''It is unknown why the Sidhe elder had no problem with sacrificing Arthur as the Prince was vital to his Sidhe Queen plot. It's possible that he assumed that Godwyn would simply have his daughter marry another king's son.''

When Elena became 20, Uther Pendragon and Godwyn, who were old friends, arranged a marriage between her and Arthur. Arthur's servant, Merlin, discovered the plot. Grunhilda informed the elder of this and he tried to kill Merlin in his sleep, however, he was killed by Merlin's Sidhe staff, which he previously acquired from another Sidhe. Merlin later foiled his plan and killed both Grunhilda and the Sidhe inside Elena. She and Arthur then agreed they didn't love each other and cancelled the marriage (The Changeling).
