		Oberon defeated all the opposition thrown against him: Xanatos, the gargoyles, Renard, and even Puck, but after Fox in a last moment of desperation summoned up enough magic to strike at Oberon, Goliath used the opportunity to persuade Oberon and Titania to let Alex stay in the human world to be trained in magic.
		When Oberon returned to Avalon to reclaim it, Tom helped Elisa, Katharine, and the Avalon gargoyles construct the iron bell that would defeat him, and then rang it again and again to weaken him until he was ready to listen to their terms.

		They aren't Oberon's children (at least that's what I think, you are free to send me an arguement to the contrary).
		In my opinion, they are one of two things: either human/fey hybrids (Oberon was shocked that Titania had found a mate among the humans, indicating that he was not aware that any did) who were born disfigured and so were ridiculed, or, they could be humans.
		But in classical mythology, she was always like that and had two sisters who looked just like her (she, of course, was the only mortal one though) and Athena did not like her because when Medusa was beautiful she caught her making out with Poseidon in her temple.

		Indeed, it was female followers of Dionysus in the story of Orpheus who tore him apart at the climax of their drunken, frenzied dancing.
		The first is that according to mythology, the satyrs have a history of dancing for pleasure in the woods either with nymphs, or with Pan and his pipes.
		Regardless, both the dance in the masque and the dance in the play are dances for twelve satyrs or men of hair, and both dances function as a disruptive, discordant force in their respective entertainments.

		This is spoken to Oberon, and Puck is asseverating how far he is willing to go to please Oberon, perhaps even suggesting that Oberon orchestrates all of the pranks and uses Puck as his scapegoat.
		However there is one particular scene where Oberon raises his arm as if to strike Puck but then puts his arm around Puck’s shoulders perhaps giving the impression that Oberon holds the power and that their relationship is not as friendly as one thought.
		After looking at both sides of the argument I feel that Oberon orchestrates the plans and uses Puck as a scapegoat, Oberon uses the fact that Puck at times can be irresponsible to his advantage and is able to persuade the audience into thinking that Puck is in fact a mentally mad character.

		The first musical vocalizations occur when a chorus of fairies surrounds a drunken "scurvy Poet" and pinches him "for his Crimes, his Nonsense, and his Dogrel [sic] Rhymes." It is as if whatever music follows is presumed to have been written by a more supernatural hand than that of a commercial hack.
		Act III finds Bottom, transformed into an ass, in Titania’s arms, and they are thereby entertained in an allegorical manner by a nymph who brackets the humorous quarreling of a mortal rustic couple, Coridon and Mopsa, with songs about the pain and deception of love.
		By the end of Act IV, order is restored to Oberon’s household as well as to Shakespeare’s confounded mortal pairs, Lysander and Hermia, and Demetrius and Helena; and the fairies celebrate the dawn with a masque concerning Phoebus and the four seasons.
