A massive, horned, blue serpent that watches over the Feywild.

The true history of the Feywild is long lost, washed over in lore and myth, sanitized and rewritten by millennia of history. Dates, events, specific names and places are not part of the memories but the sense of history, lineage, and culture.
The Feywild was created by the Primordials, the precursors to the pantheon of current gods. The Primordials found some of the original Prime too “bright” and too “dark” so they rent those parts away creating the Feywild and the Shadowfell respectively.
The Feywild gave birth to its own gods and its own courts to rule over it. As most things in the Fey seek balance, two royal courts arose, one good-aligned and one aligned with evil. To ensure that neither ever gained too much power or outsmarted the other, a keeper was ordained to maintain the balance, Vyrian. Vyrian and her subsequent descendants remained both part of the Fey and beyond it, maintaining the balances, ensuring deals made were kept, and that the natural laws of the Fey applied equally to all, good and bad alike.
The line descended from Vyrian has been marked through the years by a sky-blue light, emanating from a pearl in the creature’s forehead. The powers, passed from mother to daughter across the millennia, embody the magic of the Fey and of the Primordials who created it.
Cerionis, Mother of the Fey, transcends any concept of Celestial or ArchFey. She is both before and after those receiving her "authority" from the primordials and the two original gods of the Fey: The Summer Queen & The Queen of Air and Darkness.
The magic Cerionis employs does not flow from spells, gods or even from the Fey itself
