A monarch's duty is to her people, but the heart of a queen also belongs to a child. The council's lengthy debate on trade routes was silenced by a single, insistent tug on my robes. The most pressing matters of state can, and should, be postponed for the solemn duty of judging a meticulously crafted sand serpent. Some forms of diplomacy are far more important. #QueenMother #DesertLife #Priorities #SnakePeopleTribe
