Faery; Queen of the High Court

Sorcha, identified as the Queen of the High Court, doesn't appear in Wicked Lovely or Ink Exchange; although she and the High Court are mentioned on a few occasions in both novels. Essentially, the High Court is viewed as holding itself apart from the contest between Keenan and Beira. There's little indication either Sorcha or any members of her Court reacted when the previous Summer King was killed.

In Wicked Lovely, Niall notes the High Court is emotionless and/or controlled -- worrying Tavish has his emotions so much in check Keenan may lose him to the High Court. At another point in Wicked Lovely, Keenan says members of the High Court don't live among mortals, as he and his court do, but rather exist in the "otherworld." Melissa has noted that the High Court is pratical to the extreme.

In Wicked Lovely, Donia is looking for way to help Seth and Aislinn. In her library there's a book written by Sorcha, On Being: Faery Morality and Mortality. From this, we have assumed her to be very philisophical. In Ink Exchange, Niall notes Sorcha lent her likeness to a number of Pre-Raphaelite paintings, particularly The Golden Stairs. From this, we assume she likes art and/or artists.

In Ink Exchange, it is revealed Sorcha and the High Court have a penchant for stealing Halflings and Sighted Ones, a practice the Dark Court is aware of (Irial hides halflings Ani, Tish & Rabbit from the High Court). It's not clear if the seasonal courts are unaware the High Court steals/takes halflings and/or Sighted Ones; or if they simply don't have any to hide; or both.

Sorcha has been identified as a main character in the third book in Melissa Marr's series. This one is tentatively titled, Fragile Eternity. Unlike Ink Exchange, which is a companion novel to Wicked Lovely, Fragile Eternity is a sequel and will also feature Aislinn, Seth and Donia.
