The Blackthorn is a Light Fae leader from the Old Country.
Character arc[]
The Blackthorn appeared at the local Light Fae territory as an emissary. After the attack against The Ash and Light Fae Elders, the clan's governing High Council and The Blackthorn ordered the Stag Hunt, a traditional Light Fae ceremonial hunt to select a new Ash, as punishment against the wounded Ash for the attack happening under his watch. He did not know that Aife was responsible for the attack against his clan.
The Blackthorn privately made Sabine Purcell aware of Bo being unaligned and able to help her. He expressed awareness of Bo's connection to Aife and hinted at 'rumors' that Trick was The Blood King.
After Trick assured him that he had no pretention towards power and re-establishing his former status, The Blackthorn agreed to keep Trick's identity secret — but only if there were no efforts made to locate Aife.
