Titania is a goddess of light, nature, dreams, and growth, and is Queen of the Ljósálfar - light elves, or fey who bring pleasant dreams to mortals. She rules over the realm of dreams with a serene grace fitting an immortal being living in the world of dreams. The only one who can chip away at that tranquil, distant demeanor is her own sister, Freyja - Queen of Dökkálfar, dark faeries who bring nightmares and salacious dreams to mortals, who rules over the neighboring realm of nightmares. The sisters are infamously opposites, and clash on every level when forced to interact. Still, is there perhaps some hope for harmony between these two discordant sisters and their twin realms?

Titania's realm is one of ancient, tranquil nature and the soothing sunlight of a spring afternoon. They are rarely seen outside of the magical forest surrounding the royal court nestled deep within the wood, where it's said the only way to find it is to follow the sound of the court's music to the source, though the ever-changing capricious nature of the song makes this easier said than done. The forest itself is said to hold the magical power of the god that rules over it, and rumour has it that it was grown in the course of a month from a single newly-sprouted sapling that was given their blessing. That month, the 6th of our 12 months, is known as the Garland Moon, and is celebrated as a holiday month for all Ljósálfar as a time for gifting garlands of white flowers to symbolize growth and prosperity, as well as the transition from spring to summer.
