### Early Life

Hemera Brilliana Butterfly was born 54 years after Mewnipendence to Queen Estelaria Butterfly and King Consort Jett Stone on a bright summer morning making her a day queen as per her mother's legacy. She had red triangles marked on her cheeks as well as black hair she got from her father with bluish eyes also from her father. Hemera had two siblings, her sister Nixie Butterfly and her brother Nightley Butterfly. 60 years after Mewnipendence her grandmother Queen Mother Solena Butterfly died, she was only 6 at the time and didn’t own many memories of her. Hemera was a girl of few and short words though she was gentle, courteous and even at a young age owned a great intelligence from a young age. Though having 9 cousins she preferred to stay in the company of her mother and when not able to she stayed in her room drawing many pictures, many of buildings with her artistic talents. 64 years after Mewnipendence on her tenth birthday she wished for a large castle much to the embarrassment of her mother. The awkwardness of the room was broken by Lord Redbird’s laughter. 68 years after Mewnipendence, Hemera turned 14 and inherited the Royal Magic Wand, her parents also announced she would be attending the learning dimension, Elfendor Interdimensional University as her father had done. Her father was an exemplary student and therefore she was entitled to a place in the university. In the university Hemera decided to study architecture and structural design and engineering, During her lesions she discovered an ancient civilization that strongly resembled Mewmans but were not magical. They were able to erect magnificent structures, monuments and buildings. So fascinated by this civilization she started to dress like them. Hemera also devoted herself to studying magic and discovered “The durability over the connection between spell and sorcerer.” She also took belly dancing classes at the school, she kept this hidden from her mothers. Hemera graduated 78 years after Mewnipendence at the age of 18. Upon returning to the Queendom her father and mother hardly recognized her due to her new found fashion. She also was now considered eye-catching, something she never was considered before. Hemera didn't also return with a new appearance, she brought knowledge. She brought a collection of 50,000 books back, from short stories to historical records. After her return she presented a project to rebuild the castle to her mother. Her mother quickly shut down this plan due to it being too ambitious and citing how the Queendom was built humbly and a castle of that size would be a disrespect. “When you’re queen, you can do whatever you want.” Not interested in finding a husband at the time she decided to wait until she was 22 to inherit the throne. During this period she would accompany Estelaria to many of her royal duties. 78 years after Mewnipendence her sister Nixie became interested in a 19 squire named Roman Fields. Nixie was a shy 16 year old girl, and Hemera decided she would help her with the boy she was interested in. Three months later Nixie discovered Hemera and Roman kissing in a tree under a garden. Hemera tried to explain to her sister but she wouldn’t listen. Hemera moved away from Roman for a while but it was too late, she was already in love. The engagement of Hemera and Roman was announced in the following months. This would be the first time in the family a sister stole another's interest and it wouldn’t be the last. The marriage would be 76 years after Mewnipendence after Roman was knighted. It was a beautiful ceremony, but during it Nixie only boasted a look of disgust. Hemera always tried to reproach her sister but she had become spiteful. Estelaria never knew what happened between her two daughters.

### Reign as Queen

She was crowned queen right after wedding at the age of 22. Now that she was queen she wasted no time on starting her construction on a new castle. She hired hundreds of workers, blacksmiths, sculptors, and carpenters, as well as many others. She even put herself into the work. Many including Estelaria wondered why she didn’t just erect the castle with a spell. Hemera explained “the durability of the spell is directly related to the conjurer, if she created the castle with pure magic and died the castle or spell would disappear.” Hemera only used her magic to erect the stones brought from the quarry to the north. When the castle was finished two years later the old buildings such as the queens tower, Urania’s Fort, the mewberty room, and the crypts

     were all renovated. New ones were built as well such as the Butterfly palace (the private residence of the royal family with around 150 rooms), the throne room, the celestum of Jokinna (on the spot where her great aunt had died), the ballroom, the butterfly gardens, the tower of stars, among others. She also constructed the Great Celestum of the Butterfly Queendom, theater square where the song day festival would be held, the forest watchtower where the house forest would be headquartered, and the library of fireflies which stored her collection of books. Her title the builder arose from there. After the project was completed the queen organized a party for all the workers, and at the end erased the memories of the workers to protect the secrets of the castle. Before starting the construction she made a personal oath to not produce an heiress until after the constitution was completed. She kept her oath and two weeks later she discovered she was pregnant with her heiress Cosmica Butterfly. She had progressed so much in her magic that she was invited to join the Magical High Commission, becoming the first person to join the commission since its creation. The Magical High Commission is a group of 8 members (originally 10) who administer magic and its functions, created soon after the universe was born. In fact Glossaryck is a member of this commission unbeknownst to the queens. Hekapoo is the enforcer of dimensional travel and the forger of the dimensional scissors, Omnitraxis Prime is the embodiment of space-time, Reynaldo the Bald Pate is the embodiment of orderliness, Dreamonious, though not actively present in the commission is the embodiment of dreams, Lekmet is the embodiment of entropy and is the head of the commission, and Rhombulus is the enforcer of the commission. When asked, Glossaryck refused to talk about the original two members, looking down at the ground and said “We mustn't talk about that, somethings cannot be put into words.” He did say however the current members were of his creation. The addition of Hemera was odd due to there being many more powerful magic users out there, but at the first meeting Hemera noticed the members of the commission were shooting glances at the  Royal Magic Wand’s crystal. When Glossaryck noticed this as well he immediately ushered Hemera out of the room and went back into the room and had a heated conversation with the commission. 90 years after Mewnipendence Hemera again tried to re-approach her sister who was married and already had a son but it was unsuccessful. The situation worsened 93 years after Mewnipendence when Cosmica and Nixie’s son Pyxar Firefly were caught kissing. They were taken to be judged by the queen in the presence of the court where the majority found this relationship to be incestuous. Nixie defended her son by saying “her depraved daughter had seduced my son” and demanded a punishment, Hemera replied “What do you want me to do, whip her through the streets?” Hemera finished it at that question, sending them both to their rooms and forbid them from being together without supervision. Fueling Nixie’s fury even more. However, the queen discovered Cosmica was in possession of Dimensional Scissors and used them to visit her cousin’s room, knowing they couldn't be kept apart she gave up but warned her of the scandal it would cause. 95 years after Mewnipendence the engagement was announced between the two cousins. Hemera tried to ease the situation by creating a new noble house, known as Firefly, after the library of fireflies. And appointed Nightley as the head of the House Firefly and Mewnister of culture and place Pyxar under the house. The wedding and crowning of Cosmica happened 95 years after Mewnipendence, Hemera was 43, and after 21 years as queen.

### Post Queenhood

Nixie went the entire party without smiling. Though Nixie finally exchanged words with her sister, they made peace and took a sip of wine from the same goblet. Nixie’s and Hermera’s husband also took a sip from the goblet. The next morning, all four were found dead. They all had black, dry lips. Lacrimosa poison residue was found, especially on the shared goblet and lipstick worn by Lady Nixie. Hemera was 43 years old, and she was officially dead by means of poisoning making her the first queen of the Queendom murdered. She was buried in the crypts of the castle next to the former queens in a gold and lazulite sarcophagus. Even to this day, it is believed there are rooms and passages in the castle that haven’t been found.
