Era Victoria
In her dream, she was crowned queen, like she desired, like she deserved, but it devolved into a nightmare when she realized that she was wearing a red dress trimmed with gold, and that Calix knelt next to her, marriage bands around their fingers, and King Ozias at their fronts. She woke, screaming with terror and desperation and regret, to any empty room and her own disappointment.
