Kingdoms #5 - Defiance (Patreon)

Shani, the youngest amongst Zyrah’s offspring, was just 16 years old, a teenager in our words, but in her kingdom - she was a goddess queen, worshiped and reluctantly adored by all.

She loved teasing and humiliating the tiny worshippers, in her eyes they were just her toys, all of them, and she could do with them as she pleased.

As she walked around the capitol, she noticed a group of kids outside of their school, the day was just over and parents came over to take their children home.

She placed her foot in the middle of the passage.

“I want my foot licked”, she announced, out of nowhere, the kids froze and looked at each other, some of the parents held their kids closer and looked at her in fear.

“I said.. Lick. My. Foot.” She said in a strict demanding tone, the kids started gathering around her foot, kissing and licking it.

She saw a young father holding his child close, shaking in fear, she bent over and got closer with her hand.

*FLICK*

She flicked her finger in the father’s face, crushing it and sending him back, crushing over a small nearby home’s wall, the kid screamed and try to run but she just pinned his head down with her thumb, *CRACK*, she broke it under the pressure.

“This is what happens to those who refuse to obey”, she announced with a smile, any other parent who held his kid quickly released him, allowing them to join the group that was licking her foot, she made an arrogant smirk.ô

After a few minutes she lifted her foot up, her sole and toes were spotless, not a single grain of dust, not a drop of sweat.

“Good”, she said in pleasure, a beautiful perfect smug smile, “now it’s clean enough for me to do THAT”, she said mischievously and lowered her foot on the crowd.

*CRACK* *crack* *CRACK*

People were screaming and running, almost half of the group crushed completely, Shani laughed cruelly and continued twisting her foot, crushing further every poor kid that was caught underneath it.

“Y-You monster!!!!” A mother screamed at her, pointing at her with a shaking hand, the people around her gasped in fear and ran away.

Shani looked at her with a confused face, the passage was empty, only Shani and the brave mother were there, looking at each other.

“Me?” Shani asked, “a m-monster?”

The mother picked up a tiny rock and threw it on Shani’s foot, “die! Die you monstrous beast!!!” She screamed, kept picking up tiny pebbles and throwing it on her, making the most intimidating face you’ve ever seen.

Shani watched her in shock, she never witnessed anything like that, an act of defiance, from a tiny, she made a scared face and took a step back, revealing dozens of crushed bodies on the ground.

The brave mother continued walking forward, throwing whatever she could at her.

“M-Mom!” Shani shouted, her eyes started filling in tears, she took another step back and then turned backwards, she started running back to her palace, leaving a trail of bloody footprints behind her.

The people who saw it couldn’t believe their eyes, one brave young mother, causing a goddess queen to run crying like a mortal.

For the first time in their miserable lives - they learned that there is another way.
