Chapter 2: Midna's Lament
"Your majesty please wake up! Your advisors are here! They need to discuss some important matters and you're not even dressed! I insist you hurry!" A voice was heard.
Midna's red eyes opened slowly to the sight of her servant Raio. He was a young boy, most likely around 16 in the Twilight Realm. No matter what, small or colossal, he was always ready to serve his princess at any given moment, and to give her any sort of comfort she needed.
"Ma'am, you should be getting ready to—"
"I know Raio!" Midna hissed at him.
Raio slowly backed away, realizing he shouldn't have pestered her so much about something he mentioned already.
"Wait, Raio" she said grabbing his arm lightly" I'm sorry, I've had a lot on my mind recently, and I keep having dreams about…never mind"
Looking at his princess in her crimson eyes, only to find tears rolling down her cheeks, he came closer and sat next to her.
"You're thinking about the Hero of the Light, Link…"
Midna's heart was somewhat lightened hearing his name, but only to be struck by a thousand knives in her chest.
"Your majesty, if I may speak, you shouldn't give up hope. Even if the Mirror of Twilight is destroyed, I have faith that there is another way through to the World of Light, perhaps if you spoke to our Great Shadow god Kasura, he might be able give you words of his omniscient wisdom, and you might find another way to your loved one"
Midna could not deny her true feelings; she was desperately in love with Link. If only she had one more day, to be in his arms again, to feel his powerful muscles moving in his wolf form, and to place her hands on his cheek just one last time. How she would give anything to see his glossy blue eyes reflect the sun one more time, and to fight by his side again.
"Raio, you've been so kind to me, thank you. I should probably get ready for my advisors" she smiled and arose.
As Midna dressed herself in her usual royal robe, before she left her quarters, she grabbed Raio's cheek somewhat firmly
"You are not to tell anyone that I plan to face Kasura, and ask him of these matters, understood?"
"Loud and clear Ma'am" he choked out, for Midna's serious expressions pierced his mind and seemed to paralyze him.
As Midna made her way to her throne, she beckoned for her advisors to enter her throne room, and assembled.
"Good Morning, Your Majesty, today we need to discuss some important matters regarding your throne"
"Speak" She looked at them curiously.
"It has come to our attention that you have been Princess of this throne of our land for a few months now; yet, you have not chosen an eligible suitor to make as your king"
Midna's fists began to clench, and felt her temperature rise.
"Therefore, we need to take action. Our tradition is very clear and adamant, your majesty. You must marry a suitable man to fully take your place among the Twili as the true queen of—"
"Enough. I am well aware of our traditions, Head Advisor Kashiek, but, I don't have any intentions of marrying another at the present time, as there is no specific time limit" Midna replied as she glared at the assembly.
Kashiek came forth and cleared his throat.
"Your majesty, we are rather growing impatient regarding your decision t—"
"And since when is your small patience threshold my problem?" Midna hissed, clenching her fists tighter.
"Well, my princess, the problem is, if you have not chosen a suitor soon, your throne will be relinquished to the Head Council, Myself"
Midna immediately arose from her seat, made her way to Kashiek and got up in his face.
"You listen to me, this is my kingdom, and I'm the one that makes the decisions around here, as well as makes them for you. You have no right to steal my throne from me because of a stupid tradition that shouldn't even exist in the first place! When I am ready to look for a suitor, I will inform you immediately!" Midna glared into the elder Twili's eyes.
Waiting for Midna to finish, Kashiek calmly replied "Have we finished our little tirade, your majesty?"
Midna made her way back to her throne, and sat down, hand signaling for him to speak.
"Having that being said, it is with full regret, that the council members, as well as myself, have decided to give you one week to find a possible suitor to fit your liking, or you're throne will be relinquished to me. Having said that, this session has been concluded, your majesty" Kashiek said as he bowed, along with the other council members, and departed the throne room.
Silence.
Midna slowly arose from her seat, and stood there thinking in deep thought
Raio slowly made his way towards Midna to place his hand on her shoulder to comfort her. "Your majesty…I—"
Without any hesitation, Midna's patterns of green on her arms and legs began glowing radiantly, until a nearby vase was lifted through her power, and violently tossed around the room, along with many other miscellaneous objects that shattered upon impact on the walls.
"How could they do this to me! That conniving little snake! How dare he and the council go behind my back to release me from my position! I'm the rightful queen not that old hag!" Midna yelled as she slammed her fists to the wall.
"Your majesty…" Raio attempting to help her "Is there anything I can do to help you?" He gently asked.
Midna stood silent for a moment, and then quickly turned to her servant in tears.
"Bring him back to me!" She said as she ran out of the throne room, and back into her quarters.
Midna was completely heart-broken. Not only did she lose her true love, but now possibly the position of authority over her people whom she loved as well. She sank her head into her pillow and began weeping uncontrollably. All that remained on her mind was Link walking through her bedroom door, sitting himself next to her, placing his rough, but gentle hands on her back and telling her everything would be okay, as he always assured her with his warm smile.
Feeling somewhat comforted, she called forth Raio.
"Raio, please I need you!"
"Yes your majesty!" He said out of breath "How may I be of service!"
"I need you to ready up my horse, I'm going to pay a visit to Kasura, tonight. I need your help"
"Absolutely ma'am, I'll have it ready in a flash, shall I accompany you on your trip?"
"No, this is something I need to do alone, but thank you" She said as she laid a hand on Raio's cheek.
As Raio left her quarters, Midna walked towards her window and stared out blankly.
"Link…I…"
"…I love you"
