Mind it would take someone with a great deal of courage, and possibly a crow bar, to successfully silence Eileen on anything. In her very early career, some did try to "buy" her away from her investigations. It is Eileen's proud boast she has not taken any bribe. She has no intention of changing that.
Early Kingdom history was easier to follow. Someone started a war, usually a witch with ambition, and the fairy royals heroically stopped it. There is also a lot of snobbery between witches and fairies - both despise the other, both don’t like backing down or admitting they’ve got it wrong. All the right ingredients for war on a regular basis. Eileen despises this and blames both sides equally. The Queen feels Eileen is far too critical of the royal side and not critical enough of the witches’ side. Eileen is not surprised. She sees it as her role to criticize the fairy monarchy when it needs it and she will not be silenced.
