Editing Grand Queen (section)

== Background ==
The Grand Queen on Izril is not the first Grand Queen (who is a legendary figure that reached level 79 as [Supreme Matriarch])<ref name="2.41" />. She only got to her current rank after the Antinium were stranded on Izril. She used to be a young ingenue in the corps of Queens assigned to overseeing supply lines and distribution, and took command when all of the more important and experienced Queens died at sea.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/09/04/9-13/ Chapter 9.13]</ref>

There are six Queens in Izril under the command of the current Grand Queen. Under her aegis, they pursue peace at the moment, at least until the Grand Queen is certain that her victory would not weaken the Antinium. Izril is not what the Antinium seek, as they ultimately intend to retake [[Rhir]]. The Grand Queen is supposed to be privy to every Hive’s secrets,<ref name="2.41" /> but the [[Free Queen]] is not the only one who is distrustful of her, secretly defies her and pursues her own schemes instead.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/10/19/glossary/ The Wandering Inn Glossary]</ref>
