Queen Desdemona Lust (KOED)X

KOED family memorial

"As a mother, burying your child is something one should never have to do.... on this day, I bury two children. Sadly one would think I would have a handle on doing this."

Des lowered her amber eyes. It got a little hard to speak.

"I have laid to rest 26 children.... Two sons, and twenty-four daughters.... Now I lay one more son, and one more daughter to rest today. It seems to get harder each and every time I do. I see a bit of each of them in the remaining children. It's hard to say good bye each time.... I sit by my fire in my library, I remember like yesterday giving birth to each child. Both Diabolos and Laufey came into this world with a loud scream....and they left this world with a silent whisper. Diabolos leaves behind a daughter and grand child, who I see him within their eyes every day, I am happy that I have that little bit of my son left. Laufey, sadly didn't leave behind a legacy of any thing but memories she had with each one of us.... Children grow up so fast, and some times they leave our lives just as fast, some run from us to find themselves in the loves of their lives.....others, well... they seem to be haunted by their own inner demons. And they go down paths that as a mother, can't follow. That was the case with these two. They were on a path that I could not follow.... and it took them too soon from our lives, but we love them no matter what path they took. We were family.... Each one of us is a mirror of the worst and best in each one of us... You always forgive family no matter what. It is something I tried to teach each one of you... some did not take that teachings to heart. There was a song that spoke the most about what I always taught all you children, which I hope you teach your children...and so on.... "

Des lifted her eyes to look upon each one of her children.

"When it's family.... you trust them and your hearts an open door, when it's family, you tolerate what you'd kill others for. When it's family, you love, and hate and take, then give some more. Somehow you justify mistakes, try to find some better way to solve the problems day to day, in the family. You take the trouble as it comes, and love them more than anyone. Good or bad or indifferent, it's still family."

She walked over to the pile of roses that were near by.

"I loved both my children with all my heart, like I love all my children. If I could of taken away their pain I would of."

She looked at those who were not in the kingdom, She smiled at them.

"I thank you all who came out side of the kingdom, Though we are not family by blood we are family in other ways.... Thank you for remembering these two lost souls who were taken before their time.... "

She walked up to the gravestones. Placing a rose upon each one.

"Rest in peace Diablolos and Laufey.... I love you.... as your family loves you too...."

Des step aside and let her family and friends say good bye.
