Actually, we kick around Fate, but there is more than one occasion that it has been mentioned that there are forces more powerful than magic at work.

For a show like Once to work, there does have to be a certain amount of suspension of belief. Let's face it, you have to suspend belief to accept that a woman can turn into a dragon. Or that TLK can awaken a person from a magical sleeping curse.

I think that there may be some point where, after they deal with the darkness (and probably not defeat it), they may go on a quest to find the source of this "Fate".
