Hi, so here is another chapter! This is the 4th chapter I am writing today, so, yeah… Also, if you ask questions, please be direct with the question (e.g. "Lioness with manes are very intriguing, do you agree?" you could just say "Lions are cool, right?")
Enjoy!
"Queen Clarion?" Viola stepped through the royal library door and bowed at her queen.
"Yes, dear," Clarion smiled to her head guard.
"Tinkerbell wishes to speak with you." She explained. The queen nodded.
"Very well," Clarion turned around to look out the window she was next to. Viola stepped out and Tinkerbell entered.
"Queen Clarion," Tinkerbell curtseyed, although Clarion couldn't see.
"You wish to speak with me?" the queen asked curiously.
"Yes, it's about the announcement…" the tinker trailed off and Clarion turned to look at her. Tinkerbell was looking down and she twilled her thumbs nervously.
"Go on…" Queen Clarion prompted her gently.
"Well I have a few questions that Prilla couldn't answer…" she explained. Just as Clarion was about to reply, there was a light knock on the door and Lord Milori stepped in.
"Am I disturbing you, Queen Clarion?" Milori attempted to sound formal around Tinkerbell.
"Not at all, Lord Milori, in fact, I do believe you would be of use." Clarion smiled kindly to him as Milori made his way to Clarion's side. "Tinkerbell, as you were saying..."
"Oh, yeah, I was just wondering how come you can have… kids… but we can't…" Tinkerbell nervously asked. Neither Clarion nor Milori seemed fazed by the question at all.
"Tinkerbell, how is a fairy born?" Queen Clarion asked the tinker fairy.
"When a baby laughs for the first time." She replied; a bit confused on how it was relevant. Clarion nodded.
"And how are humans born?" the question was a bit harder for Tinkerbell, although she still answered.
"Uh… a girl and boy…" her words were vague as the subject was a bit awkward to talk to the queen about.
"Indeed, and as I am queen, I produce the same way humans do. Almost like a queen bee, but not as much." Clarion explained. "You see the heir to the queen or king's throne must be by blood. However, the Lord or Lady of Winter does not have to be blood; merely a special talent."
"Oh, I see…" Tinkerbell muttered.
"Do you have any more questions, Tinkerbell?" Lord Milori asked the tinker.
"Can fairy queens get pregnant even without, you know... a boyfriend or husband?" her voice was rather nervous.
"No, Tinkerbell, they cannot." Milori replied.
"Okay then, Queen Clarion, how come you don't look any different?" Tink asked her final question with more confidence.
"In a few seasons time, you'll notice, but for now, I will look the same. It doesn't just happen overnight, you know." Queen Clarion explained with a slight chuckle. "Will that be all, Tinkerbell?"
"Yes, you're Highness," Tink curtseyed "Thank you." And she smiled as she left, happy that she finally got some answers.
Anymore questions?
