Due to this weakening, the Seelie Court collapsed, the final blow being the war between the fey of the Material Plane and the Minotaurs. The triumph of the minotaurs glaringly showed that the Seelie Court's time had come, and it needed to be replaced.

During this time, she organized the Fomorians, Glouras, Quicklings, Annis Hags, and other dark fey, growing the size of her Unseelie Court. Titania was weakened due to her allies' involvement in the battles of the Catastrophe, her unwillingness to fight the Queen of Air and Darkness, and the dark queen's newfound allies. To gain even more power in the Feywild, the Queen of Air and Darkness turned to other dark archfey to empower the Unseelie Court even more. The Prince of Frost, Neifion, and Kannoth all joined the Unseelie Court, and their followers joined the ranks of the dark queen.

It was too late for Titania to keep ahold of the Seelie Court, and so she had to create the Society of Radiance. During this time, the Queen of Air and Darkness had lost her increased power from the death of Auril, but her gained power from other sources caused this loss in power to be cancelled out. Over the centuries, the Queen of Air and Darkness's power grew, and she became the sole power in charge of the Feydark.

Instead, she rules over the dark emotions; anger, apathy, atrophy, fear, envy, and the like.
