This is not really a theory; more like a fact that a lot of people get wrong.
Heyyyy it’s Theoretical Friday. Sorry about that. I’ve had lots of things to do lately.
Anyway, let’s get to it.
Rowan Whitethorn. A lot of fans think Mora is his mother; in fact, she is NOT.
Mora, instead, is his ancestor, most likely the grandparent or great-grandparent of Rowan.
It is said in Heir of Fire that Rowan had 2 immortal parents who were mates, and they died as immortals as they were already very old, in his second decade.
Mora didn’t die as an immortal, and she didn’t spend the rest of her life as one either. She was said, also in Heir of Fire, to have tied her life to a human prince, just like Mab, and died as a human.
Further proof? Rowan has an uncle and a whole bunch of cousins who are closer to being the Heirs of Mora’s bloodline than he is.This was, yet again, mentioned in Heir of Fire. As far as we know, Maeve, Mora and Mab didn’t have any brothers, so there’s that.
Since Rowan is a full-blooded Fae, Mora probably fell in love with a Fae before she found the human. My guess is? His uncle was the oldest child and his mother/father was after. He’s also an only child, so perhaps he has more uncles/aunts, because he has a lot of cousins.
Anyway, that’s it for today’s crappy theory, hope it was informative!
Until next time,
