“Britta, ma’am. May I ask yours?” Her eyes followed the woman’s hand as it reached towards the cut on her forehead. “Do you know where we’re going? I haven’t been at court very long so I’m afraid I don’t know my way around.”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you Britta, though under such unfortunate circumstance I cannot say it’s a blessing. I am Queen Kiya El Sayed, of Egypt, third of my name and I’m afraid none of these brutes,” She said, taking a second to glare at the men manning the ship. “Will tell me anything at all, only that we are escaping something terrible.”

What are you most afraid of?

I’m afraid of having my power taken away, to be lowered to a position where my words are not taken seriously. Being a Queen has been the goal of my entire life, the thought of having that snatched away is what motivates me.

amenhotep-v:

Stuck in a dungeon, unable to help anyone do anything but quiet a group of women and guards who made far too much noise. He hadn’t even been able to see Kiya before this had happened, it had only taken a day after his arrival for this to happen. Amenhotep would take his people back home, Egypt was wanting to fight against them but here they fought against people who lied for peace. When his door opened his shoulders relaxed after the momentary panic. “Are you injured?” He questioned taking her face in his hands, “Where were did you get stuck?”

"My wrist.” She answered, bring it up so he could see. “Only a little twisted, it’s nothing to worry about I’ve already had a physician bind it. I was on a boat...for such a long time. Remind me to take a caravan back to Egypt, I never want to be subject to the sea again.” She smiled, attempting to bring some humor into the situation. “My love...the kings and queens are stirring. They are hungry for heads. Don’t you see now that peace is not an option?”

“You play benevolent, very well Kiya. I do not. I never have and I do not think I ever will.” She shook her head, rubbing her cold hands together. She’d been in the dungeons for days, with nothing to do but wait for something to happen. “The only trauma I am in, is my lack of appropriate clothing.” All weakness she’d ever shown was cut down when she was a girl surrounded by her father and his friends. “Find the Egyptian people, find Amenhotep, they are who need you more than I. I will be fine.”

"I’ve been groomed to play benevolent my whole life, such is the purpose of a Queen is it not? You have other strengths that I do not possess.” Kiya said, adding the second part even though she didn’t believe it. Devani was ruthless and had more experience than Kiya but in her arrogance she truly did believe she could do anything the other Queen could. “I’ve already seen Amen, he’s fine, recovering. In this calm after the storm I’ve been talking to other leaders. They are angry. Peace is off the table.”

“I would burn this castle to the ground if my wife did not need the doctors now.” He had no problem saying that in front of anyone else, with Vivienne hurt like she was he’d fight any of the ones who tried to stop him too. “They already did before this, perhaps if we make Switzerland the common enemy they will have someone to blame but us.”

Kiya tilted her head, taking interest in his words. At any other time she would have be foolish for talking war, she was supposed to keep her intentions hidden like her family had always taught her. But there was a time to stop planning, and that time was now. Turning countries against each other would only serve to benefit Egypt. “Switzerland inviting us all here was a ruse. It would not come as a surprise if they knew about the rebellion and chose to withhold that information.”

hey guys johanna’s stuff still isn’t going in the tags so HERE  is her intro and HERE is a starter

He’d cleaned up as much of the blood as he could from his skin, he’d been making sure everyone from Russia wasn’t hurt or if they had been hurt he made sure they were attended to. “What reasons do we have to stay now! Why would we not just go home!” He said no no one in particular.

[queen-kiya-blog1]

“We stay to make peace, of course.” She said unable to keep the sarcasm and ire from slipping out into her voice. She dropped the act, knowing there was not a chance in hell below she would be able to keep it up in this state. “Bloody idiots, thinking that after all of this, the world would somehow agree to terms of peace. Even the peasants have war cries echoing in their ears.”

[queendevani-blog]

Devani’s hands were shaking as she walked around, speaking to the people from her court. They wanted to hear from their Queen or needed to hear from one of their royals. She was still half frozen from the cold that had seeped into the dungeons. Sitting down she quickly shook her head at the person who started speaking, “I am fine! I have already been asked this!”

[queen-kiya-blog1]

“Do not yell at me Devani.” Kiya said calmly, sitting down next to the woman. “It is my job to act like a benevolent, caring queen is it not as you taught me? So here I am, asking if you are okay, because heavens, I am concerned for your health after that traumatic experience.” She said, speaking with a sharp note of sarcasm. Devani was far from weak, yet appearances had to be kept up, especially in this overpopulated castle.

Getting off that blasted boat had been one of the most relieving moments of her life, from the screaming and yelling of the masses that she had just barely managed to tame to the relative quietness of the castle where the dead laid in the halls and she could hear sobbing, far off and more sorrowful than hysteric. She walked purposefully through the halls, knowing she should play the part of the nurturing queen, but not caring enough about anyone but her husband to stop. Spotting one of his guards in front of his chambers, she quickened her pace before bursting in the door. “Amen?” @amenhotep-v

Britta noted how the woman’s tone had softened. Perhaps she hadn’t meant it to come across as severe as it had. “Of course,” she answered, giving her a small, forced smile. “I’m still in shock - I think we all are - but I will be alright. I managed to get a cut on my forehead but it could have been much worse. Are you alright?” 

“I’m quite fine, thank you. What’s your name?” She asked, hiding her twisted hand behind her back as she reached out with the other to examine the girl’s cut. It was shallow, nothing that would cause her great harm lest it didn’t get infected.

Violet bit back her temper, letting out a soft breath and allowing the irritation at the way the queen has spoken to those others on the boat to roll from her shoulders, it was a stressful enough without everyone being upset with each other. “Now that I can agree with, however it does as much good as it does speaking to a mouse as though it were a lion. And unfortunately for the majority they would rather be mice in times of dire need for calm.”

Kiya pondered those words for a second before replying, choosing her words with great care. “Then you don’t suppose they need a lion to scare them into file? How would you suggest we calm the lot before they drive themselves mad? I for one, do not plan to just pray to the gods to keep us safe.”

“It’s going to be chaotic no matter; we’ve not long been pulled out of bed to news of an attack.” A shake of her head. “There might be people who know more than ourselves.”

“Your logic is that there’s always going to be chaos, so we shouldn’t even attempt to lessen it slightly? The calm in the storm sustains the least damage, and I for one am not going to stand idly by while fear and chaos consumes us.”

kirsieriksen:

Kirsi was leaned against the side of the boat, her eyes trained on the shore, her jaw clenched tight. She was frustrated, watching the things unfolding behind them. “Telling them to be calm is like talking to a statue. It will go in one ear and right back out the other.” She had no patience for the women with no backbone, they would be no help when it came to keeping them safe. 

Kiya turned towards the sound of the voice, noting of interest that it belonged to a woman who was neither shrieking from shock nor weeping from fear.”Telling them is the first step.” She said, raising her eyebrows. “Forcing them is the second. If we are to succumb to fear and chaos, then we will perish. We must be united, and the common people will always look to nobility in times of stress. Seeing as there’s not a king on this boat...well, two queens are better than one. Kirsi, Queen of Iceland I presume?”

The woman’s words hung in the air for a moment as she processed them. Now that they had reached the boats and pushed off Britta could understand why she thought calmness would be best; however, the Duchess could also understand why the other women were panicking, but instead of protesting as she normally would, she nodded. “Forgive me.”

“Thank you dear.” Kiya said, adding the note of affection on to the end to humanize herself a little. She knew the accent, the dark skin tended to repel people as it was easier to stick to what you knew. But if she were to steer this ship in the right direction, she would need to act the part of benevolent Queen. “How are you feeling? Are you hurt at all?”

Violet had ran the second they told her where to go, she didn’t have much but she had a few bottles she knew would be helpful, but she didn’t know how many would be on the boat, she swept herself into one and when they were finally all on board she took deep breaths to keep calm. “They’re scared they have every right not to be calm, as little good as it may do, they need to get it out somehow.”

Kiya tilted her head, acknowledging she had heard the woman. The other was older than the screaming babes on the boat, had an air of competence despite the lack of a crown on her head. Because of this, Kiya tempered her anger at being spoken to to impolitely and replied back in a more diplomatic tone.“While they may have the right to not be calm, it does far more harm than good. If we are all to get out of this alive and well, we must do well to keep the boat steady and keep our wits about us.”
