She opened her eyes, and walked towards the throne. She heard Sebastian, behind her, draw a sharp breath. So, for all the surety in his voice, he had doubted, hadn't he? He had not been sure of her. Behind the thrones the two windows flickered like video screens: one showing desolation, the other Alicante under attack. She caught glimpses of the Accords Hall as she reached the steps and walked up them. She moved steadily. She had made her decision; there was no faltering now. The throne was huge; it was like climbing up onto a platform. The gold of it was icy cold to her touch. She reached the last step, turned, and took her seat.
She seemed to be looking down for miles from the top of a mountain peak. She saw the Council Hall spread out before her; Jace, lying motionless by the wall. Sebastian, looking up at her with a smile spreading over his face.
"Well done," he said. "My sister, my queen."

Yes, I know it was short. But this is only a prologue, people. I'm going to publish all the chapters anyway, so even though I'm not going to blackmail my readers (if I have any) into voting, I would love to see some votes!
By the way, this is NOT a Clabastian fanfic. It has more elements of Clace, but it is not a romance in the slightest.
