The Queen
As the most trusted maiden of the queen, I was a role model to all younglings.
But no one could teach better than the queen. From her significant journeys she has taught all under her rule that no one can ever be trusted. She’d made decisions that she regrets and ones that she smiles upon. But she has told me that she is slowly giving in again. She trusts me and she believes me.
So here I am, in the middle of nowhere because my mistress has banished me for her own health. She tells me I should stay away from others. I possess the kindness that no human on Earth can ever possess. I possess the trust that encourages others to lean on my shoulder.
That is why I am dangerous. To my kin, to my family, and most of all to my leader.

A lovely short story, and yes you have shown that you don’t need to over dress and use too many words. Also a very valid point in that when it come to trust, there are very few who have the courage to do so. You told this, as only you can!
A powerful story told in minimum words
