The four mortal queens come before the assembled court as powerful, wary rulers, attended by their own guards. Their disdain toward the protagonists is plain, but the eldest speaks with authority while the two queens in white and black show hesitation and draw together. The youngest, dark-haired and faintly smiling, projects a cooler confidence, making the group’s differing temperaments visible even in a shared show of hostility.

Description

The Four Queens are mortal women of varying ages, dressed in regal attire and attended by personal guards. The eldest is marked by a high-held chin and an authoritative bearing; the youngest has dark hair and a slight smile. One of the other queens wears white and the other black, and they appear hesitant, standing closer together. Their expressions carry disdain, though the text gives no precise details of their faces, builds, or other coloring.
