Today, Princess Liliam and Sorceress Adozinda went to
the Empire Square Gardens to snack on a custard tart and hot chocolate.
Princess Liliam is the daughter of Queen Semiramis, the founder of Babylon. During her 42 year reign the
monarch conquered Persia, Assyria, Armenia, Arabia, Egypt, and all of Asia. Liliam, Semiramis's adopted daughter,
was abandoned by the Gods and is therefore immortal. However, she found in Semiramis the best of mothers.

"The Gardens of Empire Square are magnificent!", said Liliam as she bit into the custard tart. "I feel more inspired to continue the construction of the new Hanging Gardens of the Lisbon School of Magic."
"I'm worried about you, Liliam. You look tired. Please, do not work too hard"
"Ah, so that's why you invited! You wanted me to get some rest! I will spare no effort Adozinda. The Hanging Gardens of
the Lisbon School of Magic are the work of my life. How I wish my
mohtermother
was still alive to see them! I know she would be proud of me. I'm 2844 years old, but I still miss her."
"I can help you friend! For if you are the best architect I am the best in the arts. I will put my talent into action to
create a portrait of Queen Semiramis."
"Ah Adozinda, I don't know if I'm the best gardener. But I confirm that you are the Queen of the arts."
"Of course you are the best of all architects. For some reason the Hanging Gardens you built for your mother in Babylon are
one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. That equates to millions of likes on Insta."
"I just strive to improve a
litlelittle
every day. I am very grateful for your offer Adozinda."
Adozinda
recytedrecited
the lines of a spell and asked if she could touch Liliam's forehead.
"Think of your mother so I can see her through this
telepathitelepathy
spell."
"Can you see her yet?"
"Like she's right here in front of me! As soon as we return to the School of Magic I will get my pencils and make this image a reality."
After a few days, as promised, Adozinda sought out Liliam, who was working in the Hanging Gardens, and handed her
the queen's picture in a gilded frame.
"You surpassed yourself Adozinda!
This
drawimgdrawing
is better than all your previous ones. The realism is impressive. My mother was often portrayed as a powerful monarch and as a
military leader. No one had ever grasped her kind and maternal facet, as you did. I'll put this picture in my bedroom and it will
be as if my mother is still watching over me and helping me fall asleep as she did when I was little."
