changes made:
(note: I still need to finish updating her bio, but here's everything that'll be changing!)
url changed from courierofrivendell to weariedwight
removed the epessë Dolenpen; added the epessë Ewerthril. Faegalad went by no name or title (aside from Ring-bearer only for clarity's sake in writing) while she was Ring-bearer, and Ewerthril was an unofficial and used by some when speaking of her rather than addressing her directly as such.
added this golden circlet to her list of associated items.
removed her ruler of Eregion au verse since it's becoming part of her main canon.
Fae is still the daughter of Brenior and Ellother, although is now the direct niece of Nerdanel, rather than grand-niece
Fae's background info remains the same up until her becoming Ring-bearer for the Three Elven Rings. Celebrimbor strips her of her name and rank for her own safety, and she flees Eregion as no one. Rumors still spread and she becomes known as both Faegalad the Deserter and Ewerthril, though doesn't learn of it until she reaches Lindon and stays there instead of returning to Eregion.
she becomes a soldier of Eregion, and goes by Ewerthril instead of Faegalad out of both spite and the belief it's a name deserved despite knowing it was for the sake of Middle-earth and her people that she left without them knowing why. She doesn't leave Lindon to fight, but does fight when the Grey Havens (and still makes her oath to see Sauron's death after seeing what happened to Celebrimbor), and is after permitted to join a moving army during the rest of the War of the Elves and Sauron.
after the war, Ewerthril gathers the willing survivors of Eregion and returns to her homeland, where she builds Ost-in-Rínas northwest from the ruins of Ost-in-Edhil and west of the Caradhras. Her kingdom is quite small compared to the other realms, but still a kingdom nonetheless. She rules without the aid of one of the Three Rings, and often joins patrols on her kingdom's borders to ensure the safety of her people. However, they are welcoming to travelers, and are willing to host Elves, Dwarves, and Men alike as long as they are willing to be civil. Outside of that, her kingdom's focus is on trade and smithing, and while its army is small, is still not one to be trifled with.
Ewerthril joined the War of the Last Alliance as commander from the start, instead of toward the end, and leads her army with confidence and caution. She still earns the epessë Maethorwen, and later in the war "Maethorwen, commander of a broken army", because of the loss her army suffers, and how she begins to lead Elves from other fallen armies. But, by the end of the war, Eregion's numbers have dwindled greatly, and is no longer a kingdom - having been attacked by Sauron's forces while making their way up to Rivendell. Ewerthril is devastated but unable to sail despite her grief due to her oath, but is offered a place in Rivendell by Elrond to heal. She accepts, and becomes Faegalad once more.
she remains in Rivendell for a good while (still figuring out how long - possibly a century), but then returns to Ost-in-Rínas with a handful of her people. They rebuild their kingdom, although it remains a settlement within the ruins instead of a true kingdom, and becomes a passing point for travelers once more. Although not an official Lady, Fae is still given that title out of respect, and she looks out for those that have chosen to call Ost-in-Rínas home.
Fae is present during the Council of Elrond as a participant, where she encourages the Ring to be taken into Mordor, but doesn't participate in the Fellowship. She remains in Rivendell for a short while before returning to Eregion. She hears word of the troubles in Rohan, and she and some of her people join the Rohirrim in the Battle of Helm's Deep, before traveling to Gondor to fight alongside Aragorn.
after the events of lotr, Fae returns to Ost-in-Rínas, and remains even as her people sail for Valinor. She remains a ghost-like figure in her kingdom, and doesn't sail until FA 56.
I plan on adding a few more addendums to Fae's bio, and I'll still be having her untagged main verse pick up after the events of lotr, so she'll be alone or mostly alone in Eregion. I'm also thinking of keeping the courier aspect by adding that Ost-in-Rínas had a focus on falconry, and uses their birds for both hunting and as couriers to the other Elven kingdoms.
otherwise, Fae's still gonna have the same characterization, although she's just Tired:tm: from everything that happens sfdghjd - and I like the idea of her becoming a ghost story of sorts with Eregion

hey! i just wanted to say i really love your comic, i love the way you draw eusine and morty and you write them really well!! i think ur art is just really cool in general honestly, the way you do lineart is so flowy and pretty. i saw things have been a bit rough on you lately, and i just wanted to say i hope things get easier for you soon! i hope ur having a good day
Aaaaa thank you so much friend! (I apologize for the late response on my part - things have gotten incredibly busy on my end huhu--- but know that your message brightened up my day from the moment I first received it!) 😭💖💕💕💕
It means a lot knowing there are others out there who also enjoy the Destiny Bond comic as much as I do making it - I honestly often worry about my writing as I tend to fall into that 'talking heads' or long-dragging-bits-of-dialogue style, especially when it comes to the way I let characters speak and deliver exposition. It's what comes naturally for me I suppose, along with my subconscious decision to panel things like a long-scrolling webtoon, hehe --- but it means the world knowing that you think I've written them well. 🥺🙏✨
And about my linework as well aaaaa that means the world to me !!! 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️ I think that's why these panels tend to take a while- I like to guarantee that my lineart is polished and flowy enough to my liking, though I do end up overthinking stuff as a result ^^;;
I'm still learning as I go along, so rest assured I am always consciously doing my best to improve in any way I could with every new update! I only want the best for our beloved Johto mystics, after all 🌟💫
Things have also more or less settled over here (this week was definitely more forgiving and kind than the last, thank goodness) --- so bless you for your well wishes! I hope you have a wonderful day ahead as well 🌸

Be careful out there, lots of spoilers and the fandom is LOSING ITS MIND!
Do you have any theories not related to s3?
Thanks for the warnings! Fortunately, I haven't really seen anything in the way of spoilers yet, but I'll be extremely careful moving forward.
1. Well, since I'm not sure my previous speculation that one of Lilith's main goals is to help Eda with her curse really counts after Episode 11 practically confirmed that she very much considers her sister's health a priority, let's see...
The first theory that comes to mind is that recent bit of speculation I had based on Episode 15: considering that Amity's parents are rich and powerful, and apparently "work with" Boscha and Skara's parents, I think there's reason to suspect that some of these mysterious parents hold prominent positions in some of the major covens. They might even be coven leaders!
I don't really have much information on societal hierarchy in the Boiling Isles at the moment, so I'm not sure if there are other occupations that could potentially grant witches that kind of social power. For example, is hand hair lady's position unique, or are there other people serving directly under the Emperor outside of his coven? I'm not sure at this point. But since a lot of what witches are capable of doing is defined by the covens they're in, it seems likely that people in positions of power in a coven, especially one of the covens with the greatest reputations would have a lot of social influence... which is definitely something that Amity's parents have more than enough of.
Outside of this, most of my thoughts on the show tend to fall into the categories of "not enough information to formulate a theory", such as anything to do with Emperor Belos or Eda's curse, or "things that I probably shouldn't speculate on because some of the information I have comes from a spoiler", which... actually includes my thoughts on Amity's parents, technically. I think I vaguely remember a spoiler about Amity's family having some significant connection to a coven - in fact, I'm pretty sure that was the context of me hearing about the word "coven" prior to watching the show. But let's ignore that and pretend I'm basing my theory purely on what I've seen in the show so far!
2. I just want to clarify here that normally, I prefer to be given as little information as possible about future episodes. But in this particular case, considering how excited one of my siblings has been about this episode, it's hard not to get the impression that it was probably a good one!
