"Wise words," Osprey agreed, taking a moment to memorize them and then adding, what she had to say on the subject. "Yet you can twist it around. I think fate is like god - we invent them to have a belief that there is something greater guiding us, when in reality... it could be nothing," she thought a little and then added. "We fear nothingness. Whether it is in our daily lives or death."
To answer his question she was first tempted to reply that she would probably run for the hills or tell people to "un-queen" her. But sometimes no one asked, if you wanted such a big responsibility on your shoulders or if you were ready. Look at Dante, who had not wanted to be a leader and yet he had settled in his role with such an ease that it felt like he had been meant to be in the throne from the very beginning. Who was to say that she would not have the same fate?
"I have no idea," she shrugged. "Maybe... to gather every evening and tell a story, play a game?"
