Broken Boulder el torito

AW, but it is meant for @Delight!

It felt as though she were stuck in limbo. There were questions left unasked and of those which had been asked, answers were yet to be given. The truth was, Queenie didn't know why she was here anymore than the next. The children would have just as well, if not better off without her bearing over them, and she knew that they'd have thanked her for her absence in the long run. 

Then again, Queenie didn't care much for how they felt. She cared that they grew up strong and resilient, with every quality of a well-trained soldier. They were her legacy, and she would be damned if a little uncertainty ruined what that meant for her future. 

Sitting at the border, Queenie thought for a moment about when she'd become so selfish, but her mind quickly veered off to less solemn things.
