I live in a place where there is four queens that all share a land. Cammi Lionheart the queen of gold, Piyash Valdez the queen of sexuality, Fadila Lamb the queen of the animals, and Kelsie Bull the queen of weapons. They ruled the land as one although they seperated the land. The Gold Land was were the wealthy and business people live. Tourist and traders lived the Love Land. In the Animals Land lived to working class and animals. Warriors and special leaders lived in Brave Land. The land I lived in had no Name yet but it's were the poor and outsiders lived. These lands circled around one big land where markets and shops were. It was called Living Circle or just the Circle.
My mother was the old queen. The Queen of Honesty. Although, it was not an honest place she tried to bring honesty to land but failed. Her talent made others speak the truth but my talent was some what different. I was an excellent card player. I was overly intelligent but I had one thing from my mothers talent. I could tell if someone was cheating. I hated cheaters it shows how unintelligent they are. When a new queen is choosen the land is redecorated to resemble the talent. My land would have black roads, white lights, and red buildings, or a mix of everything into one building.
I was walking from the Living Circle into my land. They were already making the roads although no one could know what my talent would be. Until the coronation of course. I've never meet anyone of the queens yet. They all seemed over the top or too sophisticated. It wasn't my style nor was going to be it. I will be different from the rest of the queens. There is no doubt about it. Although I will be different I will make my land better until the day I die.
As I walked I got a few waves from people. They looked hopeful that someone was going to change this place. I will do that. I saw the castle ,which was being redecorated, standing in glory. I walked in to see my mother and father. Mother had her halo crown shining brightly and her long very light yellow dress dragging behind her. Father walked behind in the usual worried manner.
"Amura your crown is ready! You must try it on to see if it fits!", Mother said in a excited voice.
" They already fitted my head. I don't want to see it until the day. Now if you excuse me I have many things to do", I replied trying to walk around them.
"I just want to make sure it's to your liking", Mother said putting her hand on my shoulder stopping me from moving.
" Mother, I have requested what I want. If you don't think I like it than I will love it.", I said pushing her hand off my shoulder.
"You should do more of the Queen training books I have you those are more important than your cards", Mother said with a more stren voice. Father said nothing about business to me so he stood behind her in agreement.
" Mother my talent isn't being a Queen it's the art of playing cards. When you understand the art of it you can tell me what I should practice on", I said with an attitude hoping she would leave me alone. I was not big fan of my mother nor father. They were controlling and I was a free spirt. Well that's what my mother said. I just preferred to think for myself and do what I need to do.
"Amura I know this whole Queen thing can be frustrating but you have to be kind or the people won't like you", Father said in a soft yet worried voice.
" The people will like me when I help this place. You should have seen how excited they were when they saw the new Roads getting made. They were actually proud of were they live", I said turning my back to them, "if y'all would have done something this place wouldn't be so messed up".
" Amura, we want you to change this place", Mother said softly.
"Trust me I will", I said confident.
I walked to my room still not used to the castle. Mother and Father made me live in the land with my God Mother. They said it was to help me know the people of the land. It also helped me find my talent. I had a hard time finding something I was good at. God Mother helped in a great way. I was only 16 I would be the youngest Queen yet and people were skeptical. Queen would be the most difficult game I was going to be playing. I have played many games of cards almost everyone and I've beat them all. But now it's time for the new game.
