Chapter 5
"I ate the mythology & dreamt."
—YUSEF KOMUNYAKAA, "Blackberries"
As Roiben walked back into the Unseelie court, I knew that there was something wrong, I had repaid the debt but I also told Kaye my full name, I knew that would come back and haunt me. She would be scared of me too now because she used my name and controlled me to do things that I otherwise wouldn't do.
I was honestly afraid when I was summed to Queens's throne, because I hadn't done as she wanted and for that I would be punished. I looked around the throne room trying to relax, she wouldn't punish me I kept saying like a mantra. When I reached the throne, I knelt down in front of the throne and waited. "Raise" the Queens voice broke my mantra, "Where is the girl?" I tried to look up at the queen but I couldn't, "I didn't bring her here." I said my voice wavering. "Why ever not, didn't you find her?" "No my lady, I found her but I got angry at her and forgot to bring her back." Then I realised that us getting angry at each other, may have just saved her. "Well that's unlucky: I have a job for you." "What is the job?" I asked how is she punishing me now. "You need to bring me some helpless animals so that I can have some fun." She is really punishing me. "As you wish." Then I walked out.
I walked out into the forest in which I meet Kaye, and started searching for animals, I held my bow ready to shoot and as a small white rabbit hopped out in front of me I shot it and killed it. I picked it up and took the rabbit back to the queen. The whole idea of this was making my stomach reach, not only did the queen kill mortals, she destroyed them too making a wonderful poet crazy or a beautiful painter go insane and draw thousands and thousands of images of the queen.
