The Birth Of The Rat Queen

[Little__Lady 339]

A young girl sits in the sands of her destroyed village’s beaches, her breathing slow, and her hands shaking. Sitting before her is the crown of the long-dead Rat King. She’s been the owner of this crown for as long as she could remember. It had been given to her by her mother after they and other halfling stumble upon the old Rat King’s dead body. Ever since that day, the young girl carried the crown with her, sometimes wearing it on her head, and other times carrying it in her bag. Looking back, perhaps the crown had always been fated to become the little girls, or maybe it was merely by chance the crown ended up in the hands of one so befitting of it. After all, the young girl had always had a closeness with animals, rats, especially. But that matter not anymore, as on this night, the little girl would pick up the crown running her fingers over it’s deeply embedded emeralds, tears filling her eyes. She had lost everything, her family, her home, her hope, and now as her kin spread far and wide to find themselves a new home, the young girl had tried for so long to keep her people happy. But such a task is impossible. If only someone had told the child that, then perhaps she would not have taken her kin’s unhappiness to heart as a failer on her part. But alas, the child had never been told such a thing. And now she would raise up from the sands holding her crown high. The words of her most trusted friends ringing in her ear, “You’re mother feels no one loves her.”. Over and over again, it would play in her head like a sick twisted melody to a symphony of anguish. The girl had failed so many people, their unhappiness as proof, and now her own mother. The girl would lower the crown, placing it on her head. With the moon and stars as her witness, the girl would crown herself The Rat Queen.

    “To the lost and broken, the empty and hopeless, I The Rat Queen, offer you a chance at a new life. When you find yourself with nowhere left to go, crying out into the night, my children will find you and guide you to your rightful home at my side. I offer you my love, a new family, and a chance to start again. All I ask of you is that you come to me with all you are, the bad and good, your pain and joy, anger and fear. You need not worry once you are amongst your kind, loves, for we will keep you safe and rase you from the darkness you have found yourself in.”
