The drama queens have kept the household in a state of turmoil, mediated only by the separatism policy in effect for the last month. When the kittens arrived, their presence was tolerated by the queen of the underworld as long as they kept cooped up in their corner corridors out of sight. The fuse blew when the scavenger army attacked in full force. Gourmet wet food is a bounty no ant can ignore. When the little upstarts took free rein of the territory and pulled a Goldilocks move on the queen bee, she boycotted her palace. The court gardens became the new summer residence. The queen of the upper world remained happily oblivious while her sister fled across the sea to the safety of her secret gardens. All was well as long as the tummy was full. Duchess Topaz maintained a regular mealtime visit; the upstarts relished in dry food; and the queens each had their own dining room. The king ventured a breath with the thought that, at last, a semblance of peace had once again been restored.
Then the rapscallions threw in a wrench. The palace gardens were intruded by thieving coons! No longer was the court safe for dining without guards. Orders to return to the underworld palace was rejected. The queen of the underworld started eying the safety and abundance of the upper palace. She went so far as to pick the lock and sneak in, proclaiming her adversary out of place. Solitary confinement was imposed in response to avoid an all-out war.
Yet what emotion is stronger than jealousy? Loneliness! After a few days banished from the Court, desires for companionship won over. In desperation, the lock was picked and the queen of the underworld snuck inside. Miraculously, both queens swallowed their pride in order to bask in the radiance of the king. Tonight, for the first time in the history of the kingdom, both queens took court with the king, with only a pillow for added separation! May peace rein throughout the kingdom for all subjects to enjoy.
