Elana’s answer to “Why is Aelin described as mortal when she is Fae?” > Likes and Comments

Thanks for the information. I just have one observation or question, when Aelin was first realizing her true heritage as Fae her parents are both described as Fae, not Demi-Fae. And it’s hinted at perhaps there is a reason that despite all the odds she has always survived any attack or altercation that would have killed an ordinary mortal. This is shortly before her true identity was revealed. That is why it’s puzzling when her mortality is called into question. It’s not a big deal, just one of those details that bugs you.

I think it may be because she could have a mortal life span which is more mortal than fae and also her other fae for is human.
