The time had come at last, the Queen had had her sacrifice. It had taken her years to conjure the spells, the objects, the time, in order to find the girl. Yes this girl from another world, was the key to all of the Queen's dreams. It had taken her awhile to try and find someone suitable, someone accessable enough. But now the sacrifice had escaped, if she could not find the girl soon the others will ask questions.
The Queen's servant approached her, "My lady, what has happened?". She let out a growl of frustration. After everything she had done to get her son onto the throne, one silly mistake would not ruin it.
"Dammit, I lost the sacrifice! Go and find her! She must have landed in one of the springs in the city. Send the guards but do not be so flashy about it, I don't need the King asking me questions. You must find her... her blood," she whispered in excitement. "Her blood is needed. GO!" she yelled.
"The girl will be before you son your highness, " replied her servant and he disappeared.
Finally, thought the Queen, things will start to go my way.
