[Queen's Paradise: Prologue - The Queen of the Sky]

[13:06] <!Emilybroshoujo> The shining halls of the palace bustle as the servants prepare a feast fit for the King of Men.
[13:06] <!Emilybroshoujo> Cooked beasts of every type are laid out with a rather large turkey serving as the centerpiece of the meal.
[13:07] <!Emilybroshoujo> A variety of soups salads and baked goods litter the magnificent table in the royal dining room.
[13:08] <!Emilybroshoujo> As Lucia enters the room and takes a seat next to her king she asks "So.... what's the occassion?"
[13:08] <!Emilybroshoujo> "No occassion my dear just another magnificent day, I thought it would be best to have something prepared this time in case one of our guests arrives."
[13:09] <!Emilybroshoujo> "... So you're just going to have a feast like this every day just in case?" She asks with a cocked eyebrow and a grin.
[13:09] <!Emilybroshoujo> Aldeas grins widely. "And why not? I am the King afterall."
[13:09] <!Emilybroshoujo> Lucia shakes her head and pulls in her chair, the plate before her is loaded with food.
[13:10] <!Emilybroshoujo> "You're never going to finish all that." Aldeas says as he looks down at his wifes plate with a smirk.
[13:10] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Watch me..." The petit girl says as she pops a fork full of meat into her mouth.
[13:11] <!Emilybroshoujo> "You and your appetite." Aldeas laughs heartily as he too digs into his meal.
[13:12] <!Emilybroshoujo> The freckled messenger girl peeks meakly into the dining hall.
[13:12] <!Emilybroshoujo> "S-sire.... another of the monster queens has arrived...." She manages to stammer out between her drooling at the sight of the royal meal.
[13:13] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Ahahahahaha!" Aldeas laughs loudly as he stands from his table to greet the guest.
[13:13] <!Emilybroshoujo> "I swear sometimes I think you inherited your mother's gift of foresight..." Lucia says as she dabs her cheeks and joins her husband in his walk to the throne room.
[13:15] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Perhaps I did! It would certainly add to my magnificence." Aldeas retorts as he offers his hand to Lucia as she walks down the small flight of stairs at the dining room entrance.
[13:16] <!Emilybroshoujo> "That's the last thing I need... you're hard enough to deal with when caught off guard."
[13:16] <!Emilybroshoujo> The banter between the two continues as they walk hand in hand to the throne room.
[13:16] <!Emilybroshoujo> The knights that stand guard in the dining room laugh to one another as the royal couple leaves.
[13:17] <!Emilybroshoujo> "I can't tell if they're bickering like newlyweds or like siblings..." One of the young knights jokes.
[13:18] <!Emilybroshoujo> As the King and Queen enter the throne room their guest has already arrived.
[13:19] <!Emilybroshoujo> A beautiful red haired harpy, her orange and yellow feathers wrap gracefully around her body as she has her wings folded like a cloak.
[13:19] <!Emilybroshoujo> The long sinewy feathers seem to glow faintly and radiate warmth like a fireplace.
[13:20] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Ah... the Pheonix Queen herself." Aldeas says as her bows slightly.
[13:20] <!Emilybroshoujo> "It is a pleasure my lady."
[13:20] <!Emilybroshoujo> Lucia bows silently and takes her seat in the small throne next to Aldeas'
[13:21] <!Emilybroshoujo> The boy king approaches the queen of all flying creatures and extends his hand.
[13:21] <!Emilybroshoujo> The pheonix queen unfurls her wings revealing her elegant crimson dress, the skirt cut off high above her knees revealing her thick featherd thighs.
[13:22] <!Emilybroshoujo> The dress' golden trim compliments her feathers.
[13:22] <!Emilybroshoujo> The red markings around the pheonix queens deep blue eyes accentuate them and draw attention away form her petit body and towards her stunning face.
[13:23] <!Emilybroshoujo> She extends her wing and Aldeas gently grips her soft feathered wingtip and plants a kiss upon it.
[13:23] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Such a gentlman you are, not like your father."
[13:24] <!Emilybroshoujo> "A man who is truly superior doesn't need bravado and arrogant boasting to show his grandeur." Aldeas says as he looks up towards the queens beautiful eyes.
[13:25] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Humility is the sigh of a great leader." She says with a smile. "Something my mother never taught me unfortunately." Her expression showing a bit of innocence and embarrassment.
[13:25] <!Emilybroshoujo> "So I've heard." Aldeas retorts with only a hint of brashness.
[13:26] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Hehehe~" The pheonix girl giggles softly.
[13:27] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Forgive my youthful abandon but I came without escorts.... I thought it would be best to seem as unthreatening as possible before your generous proposal."
[13:27] <!Emilybroshoujo> "I am Arista your lordship." She say as she bows.
[13:27] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Don't lie to my face my lady." aldeas says, with a sudden shift in tone.
[13:27] <!Emilybroshoujo> Despite the graveness of his voice his wide smile remains.
[13:28] <!Emilybroshoujo> "You came alone so that your followers would not be torched acinder if you had to defend yourself."
[13:29] <!Emilybroshoujo> The harpy smiles wide... not an innocent smile but almost a psychotic grin. Her eyes widen and her head tilts slightly to the side adding to the look of genocidal euphoria on her face.
[13:29] <!Emilybroshoujo> "I'm glad we have an understanding King of Slavers....."
[13:31] <!Emilybroshoujo> Aldeas' grin shrinks to a gentle smile. "The enslavement and imprisonment of harpies is something I enver condoned. I assure you all policies advocating the slavery of monsters of any type have been abolished."
[13:31] <!Emilybroshoujo> "You will forgive me if I don't believe you immediately." Arista responds through her psychotic expression.
[13:32] <!Emilybroshoujo> "You don't have to believe me... and you don't have to force back your emotions my lady. I am not so fickle a ruler that I would have you executed for speaking your mind."
[13:32] <!Emilybroshoujo> Lucia looks on silently.
[13:33] <!Emilybroshoujo> The pheonix queens smile falls off sharply to a frown... no, a scowl.
[13:33] <!Emilybroshoujo> "If I stopped holding back my hatred of your people and dropped this facade of tact this entire palace would be in flames." Arista says bitingly.
[13:34] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Then it would be exactly as my people deserve for our mistreatment of yours." aldeas says as he drops to one knee.
[13:34] <!Emilybroshoujo> The throne room falls silent as the King of Men kneels before his guest.
[13:35] <!Emilybroshoujo> "By my birthright and my honor as a man, I swear to you the mistreatment of the gentle harpy races will not be tolerate under /my/ crown."
[13:35] <!Emilybroshoujo> Aldeas' words echo through the dead still throne room.
[13:35] <!Emilybroshoujo> "I......" Arista's face is pained, somewhere between utter shock and guilt.
[13:36] <!Emilybroshoujo> She drops to her knees.
[13:36] <!Emilybroshoujo> "I apologize for my outburst.... forgive me for doubting your intentions your majesty."
[13:36] <!Emilybroshoujo> Aldeas stands and offers a hand to the queen of winged creatures.
[13:37] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Stand my lady, we had just sit down to dinner. Would you like to join us."
[13:37] <!Emilybroshoujo> The pheonix reaches up and places her wing in Aldeas' hand.
[13:38] <!Emilybroshoujo> She looks up with a soft smile as her cheeks flush red.
[13:38] <!Emilybroshoujo> "P-please call me Arista your majesty."
[13:39] <!Emilybroshoujo> The awkward, almost goofy grin of the pheonix as she stumbles to her feet and clings to Aldeas' arm as he escorts her to the dining hall makes Lucia purse her lips in stifled jealousy.
[13:39] <!Emilybroshoujo> She follows the pair to the dining room and quickly takes her seat to the right of Aldeas, as Arista sits to his left.
[13:40] <!Emilybroshoujo> "So what are we having for dinner?" The harpy asks as she clings lovingly to Aldeas' arm.
[13:40] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Weren't you threatening to kill us a moment ago?" Lucia asks with venom in her words.
[13:43] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Th-that was before your... amazing... king humbled me with his display of humility." Arista says as she rubs her face against Aldeas' arm and bites her lower lip seductively.
[13:44] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Ahahahahahaha! I'm hardly humble my lady.... but there's a time and a place for bravado, and unlike my father I am capable of stowing it when needed."
[13:44] <!Emilybroshoujo> Lucia clicks her tongue and bites violently into a turkey leg.
[13:44] <!Emilybroshoujo> The pheonix queen giggles and clings to Aldeas throughout the meal.
[13:45] <!Emilybroshoujo> Perhaps she fell in love with him as a shining example of the kindness of humans.... perhaps she is relieved to have an ally in combating her peoples suffering.... perhaps it is just her instincts telling her that he would make an excellent mate.
[13:46] <!Emilybroshoujo> Regardless.... the Queen of Winged Creatures hang on the arm of the King of Men in full support of his proposition for peace... much to the shagrin of his queen.
[13:47] <!Emilybroshoujo> After all what could possibly go wrong with a yandere harpy capable of reproducing the heat of the sun in love with your husband?
[13:48] <!Emilybroshoujo> Lucia continues to eat her meal silently as Aldeas talks of his vision of a world where harpy and human can live side by side, the beautiful multicolored plumage of the winged races flying high over human cities with special housing constructed atop human buildings just for them.
[13:49] <!Emilybroshoujo> She hides her jealously behind her hunger as she ravenously devours her meal trying her best to ignore the harpy rubbing her flat chest all over Aldeas.
[13:50] <!Emilybroshoujo> Beneath the table Lucia's hand grips Aldeas' knee tightly...
[13:50] <!Emilybroshoujo> .... Just in case that feathered whore tries to fly away with him.
[13:53] <!Emilybroshoujo> Aldeas places his hand over Lucia's as he flashes her a cocky smile causing her cheeks to turn red.
[13:54] <!Emilybroshoujo> The meal ended without incident and Arista was shown to the nest prepared for her in the highes troom of the tallest palace tower.
[13:54] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Thank you my lord... for the meal and the new outlook towards your people." she says as she stands.
[13:55] <!Emilybroshoujo> Arista makes a special effort to tuck in her wings and give Aldeas a clear view of her perky tight rump as she walks up the stairs.
[13:56] <!Emilybroshoujo> "She's.... a recpetive one." Lucia snarls as she slouches into her throne and pouts.
[13:56] <!Emilybroshoujo> "I must say seeing you completely overcome with jealousy gives me a certain sadistic pleasure." aldeas says as he leans towards his wife.
[13:57] <!Emilybroshoujo> "Tell me my love, is that jealousy going to drive you to push our beds together any sooner and stake your claim on my.... royal personage?" He asks with a grin as her rests his cheek on his hand.
[13:57] <!Emilybroshoujo> Lucia blushes crimson red and storms out of the throne room in a huff.
[13:58] <!Emilybroshoujo> Aldeas' laughter echos loudly. The sound reaching all the way to the tower where Arista cuddles her fluffy pillow and mutters sleepily.
[13:58] <!Emilybroshoujo> "N-nooo Aaaaaal~ not in front of everyone." She giggles and squirms as she dreams.
[13:59] <!Emilybroshoujo> [The Queen of the Sky - End]
