===== Reservations =====

[[Mercy Thompson Series]] #1: [[Moon Called]]
  * wave of violence prompted the creation of four large reservations for fae
  * there were fae in the government who saw the reservations as damage control and used fair means or foul to convince the rest of Congress
  * if a fae agreed to live on a reservation, he was given a small house and a monthly stipend; their children were given scholarships to good universities<sup>17</sup>
  * reservations only a first step in the Gray Lord's plans
  * whatever ills it created, the reservation system had lessened the growing problems between the human and fae, at least in the US

  * the treaties that set up the reservation system didn't allow any questions asked about the way the registration forms were filled out
  * the KKK burning a house with its fae occupants still in it and the riots in the streets of Houston and Baltimore that provided the impetus to confine the fae on reservations

[[Mercy Thompson Series]] #5: [[Silver Borne]]
most of the fae who live there aren't the powerful among the fae -- but there are a lot of them, more than appear on the government's rolls; there is power in that kind of concentrationSB-

Glamour | a particularily unimaginative suburbiaIK-21; row after row of neat, well-kept ranch houses with attached one-car garages laid out in identical-sized yards with identical fences, chain link around the front yard, six-foot cedar around the backyard; only difference from one house to the next was in color of pain and foliage in the yardsIK-15
