Richard - Week 6 - Thursday

Dearest Cousin,
Thank you for the greens-- Tad Cooper feasted like royalty. I am sorry I did not learn how to make the good eggs from Jeremy in time-- but I will make sure he eats healthier from now on. He is getting bigger, I thinkm and he should be a marvelous dragon in no time.

The letter seems to end there-- ripped off at that point. Then it begins again on a fresh sheet of paper.

I burned the letters like you asked me to. Don't worry, I'll tell them your story and make sure they know of your heroism. I'm ready to start again. I don't need Henry's love, and I now that I truly have a choice, I'll be more honorable than you ever knew Anne of Cleves to be. I'll forever be--
Queen Anna von Kleve. The King's Beloved Cousin

Sigyn - Week 7 - Sunday

Sigyn-- Hit him for me. Hard.

Then give him a hug for me. Try and keep him from being extra, ja?

I'm getting them out. All five of us, if I can-- the three teens at the very least. Watch over us, if you can. Your strength has been our beacon since the very first trial.

~ Queen Anna von Kleve

Riley - Week 7 - Sunday

I wanted you to know-- it turns out I finished my show before I even came here. In the end, we all rewrote our stories-- then at the very end of the concert, all six queens were called back onstage for an encore, a melody of our stories combined. It was a magical night. I understand what you meant about performing.

I don't know if that was you yesterday, or someone else-- but thank you, to whoever it was.

Your friend,
Queen Anna von Kleve

Richard - Week 7 - Sunday

Dearest Cousin,
I'm sorry I couldn't --- I'm sorry I didn't----

Steven's with you now. Make sure he knows I didn't stop believing in him, ever-- and that I'm going to get these four out of here with me.

Punch Stephen for me? He's earned it, for lying to royalty, like that. He told me we'd do this together.

I finished my concert before I even came here, it turns out. I didn't win the contest of who had to deal with the biggest load of shit from a man who put a ring on it-- but in the end, we decided not to go through with the contest anyway. My place in history may have been secured through Henry's marriage, but there's so much more to me and so much more to the other five wives. We rewrote our own stories, and there were cries for an encore at the end, which were gladly accommodated. It was a wonderful night. And any empty threads I believed I left behind, are now tied up-- all that is left is for me to return everyone else home, and to return to your land, to tell your story and wear your crown. I'll lead them well, cousin. I won't let you down. Please continue to watch over me when you can.

Yours Always,
Queen Anna von Kleve, The King's Beloved Cousin

P.S. Tad Cooper is still growing very strong, and is in good spirits! [This is accompanied by a tiny tad-cooper doodle, complete with flames!]

Stephen - Week 7 - Sunday

Two of those punches are from me, and one of the hugs. You earned them all.

The concert I chewed the phantom out for ruining, by kidnapping me? It was already over. And a wild success. We all retold our stories and had a raging encore. The crowd was going wild, jumping, singing, filming--- and my Queens and I were there, together, and so alive.

It could have been like that for you, too, if you weren't so damn extra. I forgive you, but you put me through a lot of drama and exhaustion cleaning up your damn messes! Men.

You reminded me of my brother. Smart, kind, strong--- but also kind of an idiot. I'm sorry I didn't tell you what it meant to have you here, how much it helped to have someone else to help shoulder all of this. But you need to stop being so extra. It's not classy.

I'm getting them out of here.
~ Anna
