Watch the world burn
You think some more, and the anxiety seems to almost freeze you in your spot as you realize this is a task too big for you to handle. Quickly retreating to your home again, you watch the world burn from your window as you do nothing to stop it. You ponder to yourself what you could even do at this point, as the queen’s power had grown unstoppable.
Every time you heard her footsteps, they sounded nearer to where you were, shaking the very walls that were meant to protect you, they began to crumble around you. The giant rocks fell from the loosening mortar as it was ground to dust by the building’s gentle sway. The anxiety began to fill in your stomach as you curled up and listened to the rumbling approach by the moment.
Rocks came tumbling down onto you as the ceiling of your room was ripped off by a violent strike of the queen’s gigantic muscular forearm. The moment seemed like slow motion to you, as you watched the pipe-like tendons come crashing across your rooftop. You knew it wasn’t long now, you close your eyes and accepted your fate as the ground beneath you started giving way.
Already battered by the impact, you feel weightless as you descend several stories downward from your tower. The light airy breeze behind you almost felt as if you were floating upwards, but all you could remember before your eyes shut was watching your mother’s face in shock as her image receded in your vision.
