The reason why I make it
I nuzzled my little changeling foal lovingly trying to soothe it painful cries. My heart panged in a painful sorrow. It hurts any mother to see their own child cry and suffer I am no different. That was when my oldest son came towards me. I kissed my little one on her cheek. A maid changeling went to tend to my daughter. As I walked towards him. He gave me a slight bow as a show of respect. I bowed back acknowledging his presence.
"Mother the people are hungry we don't have enough food. What are we going to do. How will we feed everyone?" He asked with a worried look in his eyes.
My son so selfless. He will make an excellent king. I can tell. Which is why can't let him be involved with this. He's still so innocent. Besides I know him. He will do anything for his people and for us his family.
"You let mummy deal with it sweet heart. We'll be alright." I told him calmly as I walked away in the opposite direction.
But really my heart was racing and aching with a broken heart. I was left with my thoughts. What in the world am I going to do. Why was all this so hard? It's not fair . I hate being in this situation. My people and my child are hungry. We have so many needs that have not been met. To make things worse we are forced to act like mindless barbarians and attack others. Like we are some type of animals. I looked out and stared at the castle Canterlot in the distance. What I wouldn't give for a life like that. No worry. No more poverty. My people happy and my children…. well they deserve better. They shouldn't be going through this. My thoughts were interrupted by the tiny hoof steps have a little changeling foal. One have the subjects children no doubt. I turned around to face. And found I was right. There was a little changeling girl. With a curious little box wrapped in front have her. She held it out to me.
"From the people." She said as she handed it to me.
I took it gently from her. Honestly I had no idea what was in there. But I guess that's the point. I looked at the box and slowly opened it. What was inside made me speechless. Except for a momentary gasp. Inside was a heart shaped crystallized love. Useless for eating have course. But a beautiful accessory. And if you do go to ponyville or any have those places. You would be how they say set for life. A note was attached to it.
'To Queen Chrysalis, A wonderful queen and great mother. We love you.'
I felt the tears fall from my eyes.
"Mother." My son's voice said from behind me. With his sister under his hoofs. I wiped my eyes. Suddenly I don't feel so hungry anymore. I held my hoofs out.
"Come here. All have you." I said with a squeak.
As my children and the girl came towards me in a hug. I am definitely filled up now. You know what let those trials come. No one in Canterlot has love like this. And never will. I have a reason to fight and a reason to win.
Celestia eat your heart out.
