No one knows that she’s a queen.
Her marks are hidden, her wings are held tight against her back but that doesn’t change what she is. She is a queen.
She puts on a mask because she must, because if anyone where to know who she was, she would surely be at risk but when she’s alone, she lets it all fall away, she wears her marks proudly and uncurls her wings. She is beautiful in the light of her candles and her reflections smile at her, knowing who she truly is.
Sometimes she thinks she will break free, walk amongst her people as the royalty that she is but she knows she mustn’t. As well as being a queen, she is their protector and she knows that they will only want to protect her if they knew.
So she is quiet, keeps it a secret and continues to quietly and proudly save her people on a daily basis.
