Angella was greeting all the guests, but when she made it to a certain table she looked rather confused.
"Did we sent an invitation to Purrsia?"
The soldier nodded.
"But did they confirm that they were coming?"
"No" said the soldier "they said nothing"
Angella approached that certain guest.
"Queen Cara, are you enjoying the celebration? We weren't expecting you to come"
The woman, Queen Cara, looked away from Adora's table and looked at Angella seriously.
"May we have a conversation in private?"
Angella nodded and both queens went to the inside of the castle. When they arrived the yellow eyed lady trembled a bit.
"What did you want to talk about?" asked Angella, but she knew where that was going.
"C'yra" replied.
Angella had always felt bad for queens Cara and Zion, because they had lost their only cub many years ago. The cub had drowned and both queens' lives had been miserable ever since.
"I understand that my daughter's wedding could have brought up the pain again" said Angella, understanding.
"The pain has always been there, it will never leave" said Cara "but I am not here to talk about mine and Zion's pain and, please don't be offended, I am not here to witness your pregnant daughter's wedding"
Angella blushed.
"How do you know that she's pregnant?"
"You know that I can smell it"
"I forgot, it has been a very long time since we saw each other"
"I will come to the point of this conversation" said Queen Cara "You know that news fly, and even in places as isolated like Purrsia the news still make it there"
Angella nodded.
"Where is all this going?"
"Princess She-Ra is marrying a magicat" said Cara.
"Yes, she is"
"I have seen a portrait of her wife to be... And she... Well... That Catra girl, I know it sounds crazy but... She looks just like C'yra"
Angella smiled tenderly.
"Cara, I know you wish that your daughter was here but... You know, your daughter passed away as a baby"
"We have been investigating her" admitted Cara "she was found crying when she was around two years old, next to the river, the same day my daughter drowned in that same river" explained.
"Oh my..."
"No one thought about the possibility of her being alive, so no one looked for her" said Cara, almost painfully.
"And since no one looked for her she was treated as an orphan or abandoned baby" completed Angella.
"I want to know that she's my daughter for sure. We don't have much time to do it, though" said Cara, with her yellow eyes full of tears and her ears down.
"W-Why?"
"Zion, my dear wife, the love of my life... She's going to die, there's nothing we can do to save her. I want her to be happy again before she... Leaves"
