Caelia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Caelia was a Fairy Queen in Arthurian Legend. She was a lover of Tom a'Lincoln, King Arthur's bastard son. She eventually bore the Faerie Knight, but later committed suicide by drowning herself.

She further appears in Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene as the ruler of the House of Holiness where with the help of her three daughters she helps Redcrosse (the epic's protagonist) regain his strength and holiness to complete his quest.
