"I Killed the Queen of the World" ~Chp. I~
She was mortally beautiful with eyes drained in sorrow. Always giving nothing yet receiving so much; food, water, riches and shelter. The love of the people as well, all loyalty and attention were sworn upon her. They thought she was magnificent, the very significance of their grayed-away world, the very moisture and nutrition to their dried-up remains. A divine Mother to all their children. Admired, adored, she was everything to everyone..except me.
I didn’t really see all that said greatness in her. And I never loved her either; mortal beauty wasn’t to my beholding eyes. But I didn’t hate her either; I had never even seen her before in person. I only heard the rumors roaming the streets of the colonies, about her great majesty, who ruled in lands of golden. Then, she descended from the heavens to the Earth as a gift from the Gods, or a goddess in human form. So the people always looked up to her, like battered, vulnerable babies clinging to their very light. They were also one. There was no fighting or stealing or crime for that matter amongst their will, and no lying or dishonesty or other feelings of sin and hate. They all looked up to her as a group rather an individual, not as many but as one. And they all looked to her for hope, peace, and redemption, and as one. Any who opposed or were deemed “unfit” for following their moral laws, were simply shunned.
But the great hope lying just past a mystical barrier keeps all else on the grounds. The barrier consists of spiritual energies and composed of net-like reflexes. It protects the seemingly bounded mistress, but also holds whatever sins the people throw into it. They treat it like confessional sacred grounds, a place to confess your sins whatever they may be, and to redeem yourself by contributing to the community and so on. So the great golden barrier holds those sins and corruptive feelings, and they say the lovely mistress bans them away from the lands for all eternity. What lies on the other side of that barrier is a mystery; no one’s actually been on the other side of it. The barrier reflects images of a happy, attractive young maiden, smiling and waving to her people. Like a mirror reflects sometimes rather poorly, I wonder if she’s truly smiling on the other side..but no one questions anything. It all seemed perfect, everyone was content. Curiosity was a treated sin, because why taint the mind with unnecessary knowledge when everything and everyone already had a perfect life? Life wasn’t about living competitively, and if flowed through the right direction, people would leave this world peacefully, and the maiden would decide if they were worthy enough of another life. If life was perfect, and death was perfect, even the after-life was made perfect..or was it?
