"This meal we have prepared today, is the celebration of our victory against a man who found the courage, to mutilate our dear queen. His hair has been chopped to bits, his head has been soaked in his seasoned blood, his skin has been fried in sambhar and oil. We sincerely hope you enjoy our Dear Queen and Princess."
The waiter set a plate against the sequined tabled. Shivanjali could feel her morning meal crawling up her throat gradually. It was a disgusting knot in the princess's abdomen. The head was an ugly, greasy figure. She didn't dare to chew the head of a demon who had so disgustingly tried to murder the queen, her mother.
She wielded her fork gradually into a wrinkly cheek and let it sit. Her stomach churned looking at such a disgrace .
"You don't want to eat princess?" Koshampa chirped. His had glided against the rich silver enriched in the plate.
Shivanjali looked at him nervously as if she had never seen such a disgusting piece of food in her life, although it was true. The chef's were wonderful creators and they never failed to please her palate with their variety of flavors and taste.
Maharani slide her silver adorned fork into the tongue of the head they were eating, cut it slowly reaching every tendon and joint. The queen savored it in between her teeth with a multiple breaths. Shivanjali would never dare to eat a human, nor would she dare to eat an animal. Looking at the queen enjoying the aroma of the evil, hell bound man's tongue made her sick with despise.

A pair of rageful eyes stared at the princess who was clearly quiet in a whiff of embarrassment that the princess was drowned in.
Maharani cleared her throat, tapping her fingers against the silver adorned plate briskly. Shivanjali could see the disgust in her eyes as she continued to chew the tongue of the devil.
