The Crown
Jea Maureen Geulen
All I hear is, "By the power vested upon me, you will become the queen of Evergreen, from today until forever!"
A maid removes my crown and my father stands up. He walks next to the high priest. The priest takes a few steps back and my father takes the queen's crown. Gently, he crowns me with it and says, "I am so proud of you!"
I force a smile and curtsy as father nods and goes back into his place. I face the crowd once and for all.
The high priest announces, "Ladies and Gentlemen, Children, world-- help me welcome the new Queen of Evergreen, Aurora Wintershade!"
