Eighth Snowfall | Video
[The video flickers on to show Mary Margaret dressed ready for battle. Her expression is somewhat stony compared to the one she shows everyone. This isn't Mary Margaret the school teacher, this is Snow White, the Queen, and her posture says as much. With her bow over her shoulders and a sword in her hand, she paces along in front of the lines of soldiers waiting for her to begin.]
As of today, I am your Queen. You will not serve me, but you will follow me, under my banner, and you will heed the words of my husband, Prince David, as an extension of myself. [She thumbs at the sword, her gaze flicking down to it.] We are going to lead Mandalus into war. As of this day, we will lay siege on those who have killed our loved ones, killed us, and we will bring them crumbling to their knees.
[She isn't fond of nameless killing but, in the end, this is war and this is what must be done. She turns her gaze towards the phone recording everything to the network.]
I am not Elizabeth Tudor, neither would I claim to be. But I am Snow White, and I do not fear these people who would snatch us up and display us as gruesome victories. I don't even pity them, but I am wise enough not to underestimate them. [She glances at her army again, then towards her husband and daughter, but she doesn't address any of them.]
I would ask that anyone who fought under Queen Elizabeth's banner swear to follow me as you followed her. Whatever you believe you know of... of fairytales is not what I am and, fairest of them all, or not, I am not a foolish girl, I know I can help lead Mandalus to victory.
[She licks her lips, just briefly, and the urge to shrink back into Mary Margaret is so very present, but she refuses to let herself do that.] Please, anyone that worked with Elizabeth, contact me. I would like to see where her plans had you and where we can go from there. I am here to serve you, Mandalus, as a Queen and a warrior.
[Snow nods and the video cuts.]
Private video to Khan Noonien Singh.
[When the private message begins, Snow is alone, indoors, and has a slightly less stern expression.] Mr. Singh. I would like to speak with you alone. I think we can come to some kind of peace between our armies, and work together. Please, contact me.
