Princess Thelma
Queen Iris latched a firm hand around Hannah’s wrist. Her grip was a steel trap, the only way either of her children could manage escaping her hold was to saw their own hands off. Blood slicked her palm and oozed between her fingers. Hannah’s blood. “Don’t you dare!” The Dawn Queen’s voice was a low threat, warning her daughter back. Away from the fire. Away from the altar. Away from Thelma. “You listen to me, Hannah. You’re irreplaceable, do you understand? God forbid, but if Thelma’s…” Her voice trailed off, spiking with hidden hurt on the syllables of her daughter's name, “If Thelma’s gone, then you become more valuable than ever before.”
Queen Iris turned the Crown Princess around, guiding her back from the wreckage of the chandelier, leading her back to the door where a cadre of armed guards awaited them. Her gaze stared dead ahead, locked on the very spot she’d seen Cassian flee through moments before, abandoning his sisters to their fate. She couldn’t blame him, but an ache of disappointment twinged in her chest. Her son. Her only first and only son was no warrior. If his father were alive to see him today he would have given the young prince an earful.
The guards flocked the Queen and Princess, ushering them out the gaping doors and into the clean air of an overcast day. Even outside, Queen Iris refused to slacken her grip on Hannah, fearing that the slightest give and she’d bolt back into the burning cathedral, back into the arms of death. Her fingers were the iron-teeth of a steel trap, holding fast to Hannah.
Thelma.
Her daughter.
The Queen feared the worst. She had to. She had to be prepared for the moment the guards returned announcing the Second Princess dead. Pushing away the unimaginable, Queen Iris focused on Hannah, leveling their identical green gazes, “Hannah, my darling, you must listen to me, remember what I’ve told you all these years. Duty comes first. Duty must always come first. If the worst has come to pass then it is up to you. I didn’t want to, but if Thelma is gone then it will be your responsibility to marry Tamlin and unite the Courts.”
Her eyes were hard, glistening with unshed tears. Tears she refused to cry. Duty first. Always duty first.
Straightening, she searched the growing crowd for Cassian and found him looking exhausted and guilty. "Cassian," she called, beckoning him over. At least two of her children were safe and sound, maybe for all the wrong reasons but it was more than Queen Iris could have hoped for. Especially when she glanced to King Thane and found him furious with only his daughter at his side.
---- “At least you’ve gotten out of your marriage for now.”
She wasn’t sure how Tamlin had meant for his words to be taken, but to Thelma they burned worse than the flames at their feet. Her marriage. Their marriage.
She had gotten out of it, but at what cost? What price would she pay for fate’s hand? She stared at Tamlin, all threads of thought either burning with the carpet or drawing a blank. Blood dripped from his palm, streaming where glass met skin, spattering the hem of her gown with drops of bright crimson. He looked… She didn’t know. Terrified. Confident. At least he didn’t look like an emotionless statue anymore. Thelma opened her mouth to speak, to make a plan. The guards would be coming to their rescue soon. The immortals ones at least. Fire could hurt them, yes, only iron could kill them. It wouldn’t be long now, they must be seeing that that King and Queen were extracted from this deathtrap first and foremost, along with all the guests.
She and Tamlin were second priority, even on their wedding day.
Fate came to collect sooner than she expected.
A hand clamped over her mouth. Her eyes widened, the fear in her veins taking on a whole new shape. Fire and glass and smoke were forgotten as a voice spoke in her ear and what felt like a needle pricked her back. Thelma knew the speaker, recognizing his voice from moments ago.
Lou.
Her eyes were on Tamlin’s, vice-like and terrified. There was a way out this. There had to be. She just hadn’t thought of it yet. Gathering her courage and steeling her resolve, Thelma’s body moved faster than her mind. Before she could register what was happening she felt her teeth meeting her captors hand, bone sinking into skin. The iron-rich tang of blood swelled in her mouth, flooding over her tongue. Gods above, give me strength and water to rinse my mouth.

{ Thelma's just gonna hope he doesn't have any diseases she's got enough on her plate u-u
hmm well, at this point a good majority of the guests have escaped but maybe Evalisse was trapped somehow? maybe she was closer to the altar than everyone else so she sees what's happening and decides to step in and help Tamlin and Thelma? maybe a combination of both? }
