Queen Mother [The remarried empress]

[Maria Kaella Evangeline] Concubine of the former emperor, Osis III.

Although, she was not favoured as much as the last empress or even, the former emperor's 'favourite' concubine, Countess Sophie, but she still had a high standing in the last emperor's harem.

She never had a child of her own, so she treated Soveshu, as her own child, making him see her as his mother, more than the empress. Making her, unexpectedly, gain the title of 'Queen Mother' as soon as Soveshu was crowned.

"Queen Mother-- No, mother-in-law, I fear that I will no longer be able, to stay by your side; even so, please give me your blessings." --Navier Trovi, empress and Maria's daughter-in-law

"Mother, this is Rashta, my concubine. She has, yet, to possess the education of an empress, so, I implore you to teach her, what she is lacking." - Soveshu, emperor and Maria's godson

"May I also call you mother?!" - Rashta, Soveshu's concubine and runaway slave

"It's an honour to meet you, mother queen Maria K. Evangeline! As expected, you are as magnificent as I heard!" - Heinley, Navier's future husband

"You are still beautiful as ever." - Duke Elgy, Heinly's friend

"Oh my-! Dear ministers and fellow noblemen, you do know that I cannot exercise any power in this empire's political affairs, as I relinquished them when his Majesty was crowned. Therefore, I shan't intervene in Navier's decision, as she already has gone through grievances. You should bestow her alimony instead." -Queen Mother

This is a work of fiction, based on the novel 'Remarried Empress' by Alphatart and later adapted in a webtoon of the same name. Therefore, except for the plot of this story and original characters, nothing is mine; same as the pictures used that I've taken on Pinterest and other similar platform, which belongs to their original artists.

Moreover, I would like to state that any resemblance to any person, be it dead or alive, to any real event is merely the product of a coincidence.
