The Lorax and the Last Queen
No one remembered what the Lorax truly was. Some said it was a guardian of trees, others whispered it was the echo of a forgotten god, bound to the far end of town where the grickle grass grew. It had stood there for centuries, a sentinel of memory, speaking for things that no longer had voices.
But one night, when the river Styx overflowed its banks and drowned the borders between the living and the dead, Koenma appeared. He knew the flood was no accident—it was a summons. The Lorax was lifted, not by hands, but by decree, carried away into the mist where the grickle grass bent like mourners at a funeral.
I was there. I saw phantoms with crosses carved into their foreheads, searching through the drowned streets. They were not hunters of flesh but seekers of destiny, looking for the one who had escaped.
That was me. The last of the great queens. My kingdom had fallen, its towers swallowed by shadow, its banners torn by the Styx’s current. Yet I remained queen, even as I fled. I boarded a vessel of bone and driftwood, carried by the black waters of the Styx.
The Lorax turned its eyes to me as it was taken, and I understood: it had been there to remind us of what was lost, and now it was leaving because the world itself had forgotten.
The phantoms followed, whispering names I no longer recognized. Koenma stood at the shore, silent, his gaze heavy with judgment. And I, crowned in ruin, sailed into the Styx’s endless flood, carrying with me the last ember of a kingdom that no longer existed.
I was still queen.
But my throne was the river, my crown the memory of voices silenced, my kingdom a shadow drifting be
tween worlds.
