I like it very much. This queen reminds me a lot of Daenerys Targaryen, or then again, since she was real and Dany isn't, it is Daenerys who bears many similarities with Siseguntia. Once again, I bow to your writing skills.

Thank you so much, darling
I'm glad you liked it :)

Unfortunately, this Siseguntia is mostly my own making (and yes, daenerys. I approve). The only things we know of her was that she was the wife of Miro and Andeca, and mother of Euboric. Oh, Dark Ages, you were so interesting but your records-keeping sucked.

Yeah, indeed records from the Dark Ages mustn't be easy to come by. Still, if it's a creation of your own in a way, then it's even better! It's a great character!

There is actually a lot of writings from the Dark Ages, which is something a lot of people are surprised by. But records of actual people (not counting holy figures), even kings, when they exist, are very skeletal, so to speak. And, of course, a lot has been lost since that time. We are talking about a period that took place, roughly, 1500 years ago.

But once again, thank you. I'm glad you liked it :D
