Thank you all so much for your comments! ICEMARK ROCKS! I can't wait for the movie, can you? Anyway, have fun reading this, I might not update for aweek or two becauseI have to reread the book. I've forgottenalot about the characters, especially Oskan. That's whythere's not much of him. Still, enjoy!
(Oh, I own nothin'.)
When Thirrin came back, Oskan, instead of laughing his head off, just smiled and shook his head.
"You can beat an army a million times stronger, but you can't even collect eggs. I wish I had a drawn picture of this." Thirrin just grumbled, cleaned up a bit, then went out to the city to buy the eggs. The first vendor she came to was a peasant named Bob McPeaasantson, who came from a very proud line of peasants.
"Hello. I am Thirrin Freer strong-in-the-arm Lindenshield, AKA your QUEEN. I demand three eggs."
Now bob wasn't a bright man, but he did know about the world, so he guessed she was a random maniac who was currently under the influence of believing she was the Beloved queen.
"Riiiiight miss, " he laughed. "I'm sure you are. That'll be three shillings for the three eggs."
Thirrin glared at him, and started yelling at him.
"I'll cut your head off as soon as Oskan gives me his sword!" She growled after fifteen minutes of yelling.
"Whatever lady." He said.
She glared and sulked off. Next she came to a little girl selling eggs. She decided to be nice this time.
"Little girl, I am Thirrin, your Queen. I am in dire need of three eggs. Please give me some." The little girl looked up at her with big eyes..
" Sure you can, Queen Thirrin, but instead of paying for them, please listen to my concerns for the Queendom." Thirrin sighed, but agreed.
"#1 The smoke from machinery is littering the sky, making it hard to breath." The little girl read off a list she had taken out of pocket. Apparently she had been preparing for this moment.
About 56 concerns later, our heroine politely told the little girl that that's all the concerns she could handle today, and to make up for all the rest she would pay full price. She came back to the palace triumphant and proud, carrying her eggs carefully. But instead of hearing Oskan shower her with praise, he stared.
"WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG? IT TAKES 5 MINUTES FOR NORMAL PEOPLE! It's been almost a HOUR!" you guessed it, Oskan yelled.
Thirrin just shrugged.
"Go get the flour now. "
Now Thirrin knew where to get flour of course. The mill! Who didn't? Duh. Such and easy answer….
So she mounted her trusty horse Blizen(it's an awesome random name) and rode off. Soon she came to a mill. It was ran by Candy and Erin, who were married. She came over to Candy first.
"I ask for some flour, please. Four or five cups should do it." She asked. Candy freaked out and fainted. It's not everyday a queen comes to you to ask for flour. She went over to Erin.
"May I have some flour?" She asked, yet again.
"TAKE IS ALL, MY HIGHNESS!" He yelled, and fainted.
"Um, 4 cups are enough, thanks. " And she went over to wherever the heck they keep four in a mill, 'cause I don't know, I've never even seen one, and took a bag, and walked off, wondering about the wisdom of the people of her queendom.
As she was walking back, two people suddenly appeared right in front of her. Before she could pull out her sword, one of them, a blonde girl, came up to her and asked sweetly, "Excuse me, where are we?"
Thirrin blinked and said "Icemark, of course."
"Damn! Wrong book, Farid. " She yelled to her male companion. He swore too, and they walked off to the forest where she could hear them talking and reading. The teen queen shook her head and rode off to the palace, to have yet another adventure with…COOKING!
Oh, one more thing. As some of you might know, Meggie and Farid fromInkheartmade an apearance. Yay... Anyway, if you want them to apear again, type 'monkey'. If not, type 'NOOOO'.
Bye for now!
