Amber Throne Story

In the beginning of the novel, Princess Alyss is characterized as mischievous, endearing, and naive. Alyss loves to play pranks such as “dropping jollyjellies from an open window and watching them splat on the guards below” (Beddor 11). Instead of behaving like a proper princess, she prefers getting into trouble with her best friend, Dodge. However, her pranks are never mean spirited; Alyss just enjoys having fun. Although Alyss is mischievous, her father finds Alyss to be a “delightful creature” (19). Besides her parents, other adults who even sometimes find themselves as Alyss’s targets, such as Bibwit Harte, find Alyss to be endearing. They appreciate her playfulness and are charmed by her. Since Alyss is so accustomed to people loving her, she barely questions, “Where did you come from?” when a kitten randomly appears as a birthday present for her (41). Alyss is naive and never suspects that anyone would want to hurt her and her family. She is easily tricked into bringing The Cat into the palace. Despite her faults, Alyss is loved by many, but her sheltered life has left her vulnerable to The Cat and his master, Redd.

Queen, by Audrey Flack is a very captivating piece of artwork. It was painted in 1976, originally Audrey Flack took a picture and then used it as the basis for this painting. Queen is a painting of box that is full of special mementos. It has features such as a quarter of an open orange, a rose, a pocket watch, a queen playing card, a locket of an older and a younger woman, lip balm, perfume, a chess piece, blush, and a chain necklace with the letter “F” on it. The painting almost looks like a vanity drawer or a keepsake drawer. However, realizing the fruits and flower in the painting I understood it to be a collection of the artist's memories as opposed to a drawer. Audrey Flack was demonstrating the many things that were significant to her while aging. Queen signifies the fight against time. It shows that no matter what possessions you retain it will not keep you young. No one can win the battle against time.

This is the second book to a court of thorns and roses by Sarah J Maas, which I would highly recommend. The first book is a retelling of the fairy tale beauty and the beast. While the first one was amazing in my opinion, the second one was even better. If you haven't read the first one yet, you need to. And if you read the first, but not the second you need to. And if you haven’t read either one of them then you need to stop reading now and leave. I’m serious these books are amazing and you don’t want to be spoiled.

Only during times of war, which was rare since they had few enemies, she would use the spell learnt through destiny and poison the heart of her enemies. This spell would turn them against themselves and corrupt

“Romance of the Three Kingdoms” romanticizes historical events in the late Han dynasty and the Three Kingdom period. A series of campaigns, known as Zhuge Liang’s Northern Expeditions were adapted and glamorized in order to narrate a fictional incident starring how Zhuge Liang, a chancellor-regent, who managed to save not only himself without an army, but also the entire empire; “A king whose city was about to be attacked decided the only thing he could do to save it was to order the gates be flung open. He then told the attacking force that the city was empty and that they were welcome to enter. Suspicious that the king’s words were a trick to tempt them into an ambush, the enemy forces decided to move on and the king’s empty city was saved.” The tactic stated above is called the Empty Fort Strategy.

The fictional Queens in Beowulf are shown as a ideal model for the real noblewomen and Queens in the early Germanic tribes. The Queens in Beowulf are proven to be “good” or have acceptable behavior if they are peace-weavers, play the role as hostess in the mead hall, and give gifts to her warriors. There were also examples of the Queens acting diplomatically and actively engaging in political affairs. All of these traits seem to be praiseworthy in the tale of Beowulf, making it likely that these traits were also praiseworthy for the actual Queens of the early Germanic people. Beowulf is a poem published by a clergyman in the tenth century while the tale is set in the sixth century.
