The Queen sent Princess Rhys to go get the King. Wow! Dag was going to meet the whole royal family, that was so cool and she couldn't help but feel special. The girl would flinch just slightly as the queen started to lick her head, taken by surprise at the sudden familiarity while at the same time feeling a sudden ache in her heart for her own mother.
Do you have a sore throat? Maybe a headache or upset tummy
Dag nodded. "Mhm, my throat really hurts and my chest hurts and my head hurts and my tummy….." she paused for a moment as if consulting her stomach before shaking her head. "My tummy is fine...m' hungry though." She'd nod again. "I am thirsty but I don't know if I want to drink, it makes my throat hurt more." Dagmær fidgeted as she tried to decide if the relief of a cool drink would be worth the pain of trying to swallow. "Thank you your majesty."
