Queen zella

Chapter 1 eloquence elegance and splendor

In a post apocalyptic world a kingdom emerges from the wreckage, giving hope where there was none. Under the leadership of the king and his queen, the illustrious Zella the people were thriving. They built, and they sacrificed as they forged ahead into the future, slowly gaining confidence that their tomorrow's could be bright and full of promise.

Nothing however filled the people with hope more than the beautiful queen Zella. Her dedication and compassion had become that of myth or legend. She brought grace and style back to post apocalyptic life. Regal and poised she led with sophistication and tact.

The king in fact drew his strength from his queen and she was his inspiration and reason for being. He would gaze lovingly upon her long straight raven hair as it framed her slender face and slight features. With full pouting lips and dark piercing eyes she commanded his soul as the sun commands the sky. At 5 foot 9 and a trim 135 pounds with long legs and pert breasts that she draped with fine clothing and beautiful jewelry she was a vision of loveliness.

Still life was bland for the people even unto the food they ate, including the King and his court. Fine dining and culinary delight was not a priority for the upstart of a kingdom as it was getting on its feet. As things settled and life took on a degree of normalcy however that slowly began to change. The King and his bride finally had the opportunity step back and admire the results of their hard work. They also had the chance to focus on themselves and their life in the palace.

This led to a degree of pomp and circumstance as one would expect to find in the castle that belonged a great King and his stunningly magnificent Queen. This led to the addition of a new chef as a member of the palace staff. Right away meals became an event every time they were served. And rightfully so as there was much to celebrate for the royal couple. A little time for commiserating and reflection was much in order and well deserved.

The food and drink flowed freely and times were good. But isn't that exactly when things can change and life's course be altered greatly even as we are unawares and unsuspecting. We make choices even at times through the choices we don't make and fate can take a hand and lead us in a most unintended way.

Fate was taking a hand in the palace and for the kingdom now, and where it was taking them, no one could have foreseen. Tonight the village will sleep in peace and the children will dream their dreams in the quiet of the night. And tomorrow? Tomorrow never knows.
