Again she had tried and again she had failed to win Father Earth's favor. She smiled as he named the two that would be taken under his wing, but her blue eyes betrayed every feeling she had. She was hurt and sad. More than that, she was afraid. All the girl wanted was the ability to make stones light up with electricity, to glow when they should not glow, to bring the sun to the darkest parts of Helovia. Perhaps it was more than just that she wanted it- the painted queen needed it. How many nights had she awoken from nightmares fueled by the blackness all around her? And what of her basket that was waiting for her down in the caverns. She had to get that back at some point too, but she was too afraid to go back in there. She had managed, during the sickness, as her fear of the wraiths was greater than her fear of the stony walls but with nothing above to frighten her down there, she hated the idea of going back. When it seemed prudent, the girl gave one final nod to Father Earth before turning away, walking slowly along. Even the Thistle Meadow seemed somewhat dulled in her opinion. Perhaps it was just her emotions clouding her perception of the area. It confused the girl greatly that Tyradon, as Father Earth had called him, would win the God's favor. He had seemed cruel, heartless, racist even. Perhaps she just did not understand that Tyradon was being taught a lesson and yet... It seemed to her that she, fighting against racism and promoting peace throughout all of Helovia, was a grander cause than fighting for chaos and war. But jealous or not, the painted queen refused to wallow all day. So while there was no spring in her step, she forced a smile onto her face as she walked, trying her best to wear a happy face and to convince herself that it wasn't so bad. There would always be another day. @[Tyradon] and open |
