Queens And Conquerers

Bellisaria

There was silence throughout the colossal  room of the castle. Queen Margarite of  France stroked the rich curly brown locks of her little daughter Princess Bellisaria of France. The Queen watched as her 5 year old daughter awoke from her hour long nap and smile at the sight of her daughters big green eyes. Princess Bellisaria was a nightmare and no one could understand why the gentle, loving, and kind Queen Margarite could love the Princess. Bellisaria enjoyed power and she directed all her servants every which way until some tried to escape from the wrath of the 5 year old girl. Sometimes Bellisaria would ask the Queen, "Mommy," "Yes, darling?" She would respond " when will I become Queen? " " Oh sweetie you still have a long time until you become Queen. My darling Bellisaria, you will become Queen when I am no longer alive."  " Mommy, will that be soon?" the Princess said "I'm afraid not  sweetheart... Now go to your play room and stay there until I call you for lunch dear. Run along!" One of the Queen's ladies in waiting had seen Princess Bellisaria basically ask her mother the Queen when she was going to die. Word got out quickly through the castle and through France of Bellisaria's death wish to her mother in order to get the throne. The Queen ordered the Court to host a ball in honor of Princess Bellisaria to show the country their next leader will not be terrible and she will lead the country to glory!
The ball was held in one of the castle's largest ballrooms. It was by invitation only and those who were invited came in beautiful gowns! Decorated with the finest crystal and sewn beautiful material of silk and satin. Saltwater pearl necklaces and Sapphire earrings were worn along with Diamond bracelets and Emerald pins. Hair was done in extraordinary fashions. Then the Princess walked into the room and silence spread around the ballroom. The little princess looked beautiful. She was wearing a gorgeous purple dress, her hair done in a beautiful bun with pearls placed to look like they were already there naturally. The jewels she was wearing were extraordinary . Ranging from Rubies to Diamonds. Her crown shined magnificently in the light of the ball. The Princess said exactly six words in a small but strong voice "Soon... I will be your Queen," she was escorted into the ball by 2 royal guards and about 15 minutes after her "Welcome" speech she left the ball.
