Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that the princess, page, and knight of swords have insect-like wings (well, the knight's actually a projection from his helmet's point, but at first glance looks dragonfly-ish)?
I didn't notice that! I'm just wondering why choose insectile over the more obvious avian? Although they also seem to me as geometric - which, in all fairness, for me relates to something mathematical, precise, and very much relating to the intellect - something which what's behind the queen shows in fullness. Again, just really wondering why choose insects over birds. The amateur taxonomist in me wants to classify them as lepidopteron, dipteran (barring the halteres), scale insect, and, dragonflyish. LolYes, all the Swords Courts have wings, except for the Queen, to symbolize their element of Air. If you look carefully at the Knight's wings, he has the four directions written on them.
