She was never raised to the throne.
The crowned queen at full spread, wings thrown wide against a crown of radiating light, held at the center of a geometry the hive drew before we had a name for any of it. No hand placed her here. The colony simply reordered itself around the one it already knew — and what looks like coronation from the outside was only recognition. This is the sovereign shown as the hive sees her: ascendant, and always was. Dark faith. Sacred order. Hive eternal.
"She rose to it."
