The Successor

A long time ago, if you'd told me that I would one day be the queen and creator of a race of superbeings, I would have laughed at you.

I never wanted to be that. I just wanted to be allowed to learn, and live forever.

I got both of my wishes.

I was an alchemist's daughter. I had a brother who was getting all that I wanted: knowledge, magic, power.

I had a father who was going to marry me off to a very old man.

Neither realized that I was learning as I sewed and pretended I hadn't a brain in my head. They let me sit in the room as Brother was instructed. Sometimes they left me alone with books, and Nanny had taught me to read in secret. Bad Nanny.

Father and brother would let me clean the room when they were gone. They both thought I was a good daughter who wouldn't every do anything Wrong.

It gave me time to experiment and write, as sometimes they were gone for days.

It was in that time I found out how to live forever.

And I also learned that you should be careful what you wish for.

Here I am, the Queen of all that is Wrong, and there you are, likely in my way.

En Garde.
