Public Knowledge
On December 7, 1946, a hedge orphan named Rose emerged from a fire at the Winecoff Hotel in Downtown Atlanta. Eventually rising in the local freehold to the position of Summer Queen, Rose campaigned to rule the freehold regardless of season or the wishes of its citizens. After several years she earned the fealty of Atlanta's Spring and Autumn Courts, and with their help she destroyed the local Winter Court, executing the Winter King in 1968.
Under her rule Atlanta's freehold became the Ring of Roses, a kingdom of Summer Everlasting.
In the Winter of 1982, it was discovered that Queen Rose was responsible for the kidnapping and deaths of dozens of Atlanta children towards unknown ends. The freehold revolted against her and destroyed her with a plague harvested from the Hedge. Her body was burned and the ashes scattered across Atlanta.

Quotations & Rumors
Quotes about this NPC
"Pretty flower she was. A shame she had to be plucked so soon ..." -- Anonymous
"She supposedly 'Died' before I came out of the Hedge but from what we've been forced to live through her Legacy doesn't show her in any better light than the Others. I think she stared into that Abyss a bit too long. If she ever was one of us, what's left of her certainly isn't anymore. She's like Them now." - Gilded
Rumors about this NPC
- The ghost of Queen Rose is still around, working to destroy the Freehold that murdered her.
