The End

The queen-dowager was sitting in her study, penning a letter to her brother about her state of life since her release, when she felt that odd feeling of tightness in her chest. She had been experiencing it since the kidnapping months earlier, but had merely waved it off as a result of stress or trauma. However, a bolt of pain shot through her and she stood upright. Her chair slid back and toppled over, Lisette bringing a hand to her chest. With a coat of sweat now forming on her brow, she rushed from the room and down the stairs.

 

As she arrived in the throne room, her vision was blurred and her breath rigid. She saw her daughter-in-law and niece conversing, gave them a small plea for help, and fell to the floor.

 

In her fever-like dream, she saw herself as a little girl, living in the barony of Virdain with her grandfather. Her lord-father, Lystor, placed the tiny girl upon his shoulders, running about their neat little garden as his daughter giggled with glee. She then saw her long-dead husband, Tobias, and their wedding day. He looked so handsome, tall with blue eyes and thick black hair, and she in her white-silk and bouquet of wildflowers. She saw her children when they were younger, all in the nursery at play. And finally, she saw herself. Older, but still comely, with long dark hair and gold-brown eyes. She had changed in her forty-one years of life, in more than just outward appearance, and a feeling of bliss washed over her.

 

She opened her eyes long enough to see Marie, blessing her and bidding her support her son in these times. Her daughter, Sophia, rushed in as Lisette drew her last breaths, and squeezed her mother's hand. "Don't go! Don't leave me, Mother!" Lisette merely gave her a reassuring smile and prayed for her and Elizabeth, before allowing her head to fall back. She saw her dear Tobias, extending his hand to her. She blinked a few tears as her final breath was drawn, her soul extending it's own hand to join with her true love once more.

 

The queen-dowager was dead.

This is indeed a perma-kill post, and I just want to say what great fun I have had with this character. It has been an honor to play her, going from a baron's granddaughter to a Queen, and the adventure is one I will never forget. I want to thank @Tibertastic for letting me play her all those months ago, @Vege for playing the best husband, @Violinist @HazelWazel @WoodenApples @Audun for playing the best kids a pixel-mother could ask for, and @MarinaEmily for taking up the mantle of Queen and doing an excellent job in her own right.

 

I love you guys, but now it's time for new adventures!

Hamelin voiced distraught towards his companion, Erin. Speaking about Lisette, his kin, in performing her duties despite circumstance.

Reading the letter, Augustus trembles as he remembers their brief, special time together.

With trembling touch and wide, alarmed eyes, the Queen lay at Lisette’s side, overly aware of each breath and sigh from the small throng of people gathered at her back. Her heart had began to pound, quick as the patter of a bee’s wing, that she felt the throb in the tips of her fingers. Up the stairs the cadaver was carried, being laid to rest in her bedchamber with shut eye and wan complexion. Marie, petrified with such treacherous regret and a disarming degree of poignancy for the death of her kinswoman which she had only so recently grown to know fondly, found herself dolorous and dazed under a copse of willow.

Erin offered comfort to Hamelin as he spoke about the woman. She may have had a sour opinion on Courland and their royals, but it did not stop her from feeling some sorrow towards Lisettes passing.

Gustave de Aryn mourns over the loss of his sister, grumbling to himself about their times as children, and complaining about their lack of seeing each other as adults.

[KeatonUnbeaten 1103]

Gareth Errmark offer a respectful prayer to the Queen and Gared, from the skies, mourns the loss.

As news of Lisette's passing reaches Rotger via letter, he'd feel a wave of anger overcome him. He tears the letter to shreds, scattering them to the flame before he turns to his companion. "They'd might as well have slid the knife between her ribs themselves, kidnapping a lady, hanging her in a skycell, parading her around a dungeon. ******* Rutherns."

"Yea er we didn't kill her. If a Queen dies simply of the thought of having to sit in a cell then what type of Queen are they? Besides it was Dunamis who had kidnapped them not the Rutherns. I do believe Dunamis fight alongside you now anyway after you paid you somehow recieved from a deceased Horen." Says Felix Fitch.

[Tibertastic 107]

Alberic would rest upon a tree-stump after a hard day's ride, the missive that came would shock him. The now aged lord would take an hour's ride away from his retainers, weeping for the dear cousin he lost today.

 

 

It was an honour and a joy to see Lisette grow up from the young little girl to the Queen she came to be. God bless, proud of you. @EternalSaturn?

[Legoboy7984 3155]

"We might be enemies but she was one hell of a woman by the things you've accomplished in the world." Rodrik would say as he he hears the knews

[Publius 4098]

"Perhaps she broke under the weight of a heavy heart?" Odo would sadly muse to the servant who approached him with the news. "I worry sometimes on the thought of those who are not conditioned for war like a soldier, for we see so many distant gazes in the streets these days. Send my condolences, if Courland still lets any Tahnic ships land."

[Viochemist 664]

Princess Elizabeth Maria dazed out into the horizon after hearing word of her mother's passing. For what wroth had come to deepen an already broken heart. It seemed all her life had been a game of ending happiness. From a love lost, a caring and loving father dead, but now, her last and precious parent too to join part in the Seven Skies. The princess did not weep, nor smile. Simply allowed the satire of what her life had become to settle. "May you find happiness with papa now, mama. GOD save the Queen!" she screamed off of a balcony. A soft murmur, almost a whisper, concluded her speech. "May God save me..."

"A good woman and a good queen, may you find peace and happiness when you reunite with your husband." Ian says from his home upon hearing the news of her passing

Rotger would comment about how the Danknamemes fought with the rebels but he didn't make it through the battle.
