"Not much better, but a little. She had insight of both kingdoms, and she had enough knowledge of two of the other main three. Four out of five is extremely advantageous compared to your two fifths."

" Yeah, thats nice. What exactly do I have to do? "

She sighs. "I do not know. Out of the 97,812,370,918 ideas I have come up with only 119 are even plausible, and all those would require things most decent people would not do."

" well thats just great. "

"However, speaking to your father is a definite start." She muses, seeming to be thinking out loud. "You're the sister of the true iron queen, so you may be able to successfully take the throne. Mab is stubborn, but if you are able to become the iron queen then she should hopefully grant you enough respect to listen. Marina will be the hardest, but you can simply overthrow her. The crystals won't be any challenge at all- they'll be staying out of the war in the first place and will be more than happy to help end it."

" Quick question: Why is Isiea the true iron queen? "

"She agreed to be Machina's queen. He has no remaining family, so when he died she became the new queen due to being the closest thing to a relative."

" thats a dumb reason to become a queen. If she lives shes going to hate it. "

"It's how hierarchies work." She replies with a shrug. "Anyways, I'm going to take Isiea back with me. The iron Death is the most contagious immediately after they've died."

" Are you sure shes going to die? I dont think shes going to die. "

(Shes not going to die, is she?)
