King Weakfish

king weakfish was the weakest fish to ever exist. i mean, he was the weakest king to ever fish. i mean—i mean—
well. you'll see what i mean.
years ago, before the war of sandwing succession, before the rainwings grew complacent, before the nightwings fled to a distant island, the war specialist of the seawing council faced a dilemma. hers was not a problem that could be solved through might or diligence, or even sheer force of will. she could neither bite nor tear nor claw her way through it, and her helplessness frustrated her to no end.
the general's problem was this: she longed for a daughter, but instead had seven sons. a daughter she could train to one day inherit her position (never mind that a son could be trained for the role as well), for at the time, there had not yet ever been a war specialist among the seawings who was not also a daughter. to the general's increasing frustration, however, every single egg she'd ever managed to bring to hatching had given her only sons. after one son, she still had hope. by the sixth son, she was swearing up and down that the next egg would be her last. 
when the egg at last hatched, the general was left greatly disappointed. another son—and this one noticeably smaller than the first six. she believed that he would, before the day's end, die.
