Clary and Ash pt 2 ….More like Jocelyn and the Seelie Queen
Aside from the physical appearance of both Jocelyn and the Queen… I couldn’t help but notice some similarities about their story.
- Both of them had two children
- Their firstborn, Jonathan-Sebastian and Auraline were intended to begin a new era. Valentine experimented with Jocelyn’s son so he could be something better than shadowhunters and downworlders. The Unseelie King also experimented to a certain extent with Auraline (but this time with the Queen knowledge) to have a fairy heir that would unite the courts and end the shadowhunters
- Both Jonathan and Auraline where not what their fathers expected, and where taken away from their mothers.
- Both children end up growing up without a connection to their mothers, and with the prophecy or predilection to doom the world
- Later on life they both have another child. Jocelyn thinks that Valentine never had the opportunity to experiment on Clary, but she is wrong. Yet this child grows up without her mother at least. The Seelie Queen while not a very present mother, she does show concern for Ash, and is raised at her court, watched over. But even with Ash being Sebastian’s son, the Unseelie King still wants him. Ash becomes the second child of the Queen that has been experimented on by the King
- Despite their efforts, both Valentine and the Unseelie King tamper with Jocelyn’s and the Queen’s second child. They both can’t stop the reach those men have over their children
- And later their firstborn comes back somehow to haunt them too. Sebastian comes back as the dark shadow of Jocelyn’s firstborn, the boy she thought dead. Kit comes back as the shadow left by Auraline, something the Queen never expected.
- While the Queen is not a loving mother, she will obviously choose to protect Ash ( as she believes) against the shadow of her first born, justa as Jocelyn, a woman who loved and hated her son would always protect Clary against the shadow of Jonathan.
