Chapter 7 - The Ignorant fool

Aelin's POV

"How dare you dismiss us like that we are the high lords of Prythian. We are not going anywhere until the male in charge tells us what the hell is happening!" the one who wore the colours of autumn demanded.

That to say the least, that angered quite a few people in the ballroom. Aelin rolled her eyes and said "Firstly as you are not currently in Prythian your titles as high lords or high ladies mean nothing, absolutely nothing here. And secondly, must I truly repeat myself to you misogynistic brute?" she sighed " As I've already said you are in another world, one by the name of Erilea, more specifically the city of Orynth in the kingdom of Terrasen."

"I am not speaking to you. I will only speak with the king of this land. Where is the male in charge." the male sneered. And that was the single stupidest mistake anyone could make. But before any of the females in this room could rip his throat out, another male Rhysand spoke up "Please ignore this ignorant fool he does not speak for us."

She felt Rowan behind me as he said "I hope not, if so each and everyone of you would be dead. To answer your question, I am the male with the most authority in this room. My name is Rowan Whitethorn Galathynius, king-consort to the Queen of these lands, and second to her. She has already answered your question of where you are."

The ignorant male turned to her and with a face of pure disgust and disdain he sneered at her "Who are you to command such a male and authority? You are nothing but a girl."

She looked into his eyes, she knew the rings of gold in her own eyes were now a living flame, by the look and smell of fear coming off of many of the otherworld visitors, as she said:

"I... Am, Celaena Sardothien, Queen of the Underworld, Queen of the Assassins, Queen of Shadows, Queen of Flame and Shadow, protégé of Arobynn Hammel, Adarlan's Assassin, The king's Champion, Witch Slayer, Diana Brackyn, Lilian Gordaina, Elentyia, Nameless, Fireheart, Aelin Ashryver Whitethorn Galathynius, Queen of Terrasen, Faerie Queen of the West, The Queen who walked between worlds, The Queen who was promised, Princess of Doranelle, Princess of Wendlyn, Heir of Fire, Heir of Ash and Fire, Heir of Terrasen, Heir of Mala fire bringer, Heir of Brannon, Aelin of the Wildfire, Aelin Fire-Bringer, Aelin Light-Bringer, The Gods Killer, The God who walks among us. And the Fire breathing Bitch Queen herself.

And you will obey, and respect me if you do not wish to find yourself in one of the many lovely cells in our dungeons. Now please be respectful and follow Madeline, who will show you to your rooms.'' Once she had finished she turned around and took Rowan's outstretched hand and walked down the stairs to where most people had returned to enjoying the ball.
