Excerpt from The Death of Fionavar, From the Triumph of Maeve The effect of these events on Maeve is very slow and gradual, she begins to lose her interest in fighting and her ambitions. It is not exactly sorrow that possesses her, but her ideas of the value of things slowly change, and she begins to feel it impossible to rule and lead armies, and not worth while to fight for narrow ambitious ideals. Her interest in the mystical world wakes up again, the faery land she had once hoped to take by force makes its in¿uence felt in her dreams. She becomes unpopular as new ideas of impartial good will, instead of rewards and favours, shew them selves in her dealings with the world, whilst pity and understanding take the place of punishment.
