Why Did the Doors to Faerie Close?
Who or what closed Faerie, what is happening beyond the doors and can the connection be restored?
The closure is a real continuing event rather than a metaphor. Thimble lost her immortal connection and began ageing, messages to the Golden Orchard have dwindled and the door remains closed. No cause or responsible party is identified.

The Door Remains Closed

Theories
The closure is connected to Sylandri’s death
