Tatiana gazed out toward the water from the blacony of the Castle of AquaWorld.
The Castle of AquaWorld was in a large bubble so that - though it WAS the world of water - no water could get in.
A few mer-maids and mer-men flittered past. Tatiana wasn't a mermaid. She was a Water Faerie to boot.
"Tatiana," said a deep grave voice from behind her. Tatiana jumped and turned. King Neptune stood behind her. A beatiful Water Faerie stood next to him. It was one of his many wives, Clairessa. Though Neptune had a lot of wives, none of them was his queen. Neptune's favourite wife was Clairessa. Before he married Clairessa, his favourite wife had been Tatiana's mother, Eau. Then...Eau passed away. Clairessa married Neptune and carried on Eau's duties.
Clairessa had a sharp profile with beady black eyes searching for guilt in Tatiana. Tatiana dispised Clairessa for the simple reasons that she always thought Tatiana was up to no good, and that she took Eau's place at Neptune's right side.
"Father," said Tatiana, curtseying. "Clairessa."
"Tatiana," nodded Clairessa. Though it was custom for Clairessa to curtsey, she did not.
"Tatiana, Xavi's death is not something that should put a stain in your heart," said Neptune, who clearly noticed nothing of Clairessa's absence of curtseying. "There are plenty of - ah - 'fish in the sea' as the...above-water dwellers say."
"But father," said Tatiana. "Xavi is not dead!"
Neptune chuckled. "Ah, my daughter. What a silly thing for you to think. Of course he is dead. I hung him. You watched it, though you did so reluctantly. You watched him die."
"But Father - "
"Tatiana. Listen to me. I had to hang Xavi. His proposal to you was...not of my consent and I had to stop it. I know he would have done anything to help you."
"Father!" said Tatiana. "You listen to me! Xavi is not dead, I saw him only a few minutes ago!"
"Tatiana stop all this rubbish immediatly," snapped Clairessa. "We all watched that infernal imp be hung and that is that!"
"Clairessa this is a conversation between my father and I and I beg you to stay out of it!" cried Tatiana.
Clairessa opened her mouth to speak, but closed it again.
"Tatiana, listen to me," said Neptune. "This has been a long day - a terrible day for you. I am sorry that Xavi is dead, but I did not approve of the proposal to marry you! I would much rather you marry a man high in politics such as Teta or Ven of the Cor - "
"Father! I want to marry Xavi and I will! Don't say I can't because he isn't alive anymore, because I know he his! I watched him be hung, I know, but I saw him just a few minutes ago in my bedchamber!" shouted Tatiana.
"Tatiana - " stormed Neptune. "Get to bed - now!" He pointed at the door next to the balcony. The door lead to Tatiana's chamber.
Tatiana gave one more furious glance at her father and Clairessa and vanished.
