This was another strip I had to almost completely rewrite when I lettered it on my computer.  Queen Tilia's original words sounded cheesy and kind of dumb, which is not in character for her.  She's a mothering woman, yes -- but she's every inch a queen before that, which means her words of encouragement wouldn't sound sappy.  I wanted this strip to show Jenny starting to bond with her mother-in-law for the first time, instead of just feeling intimidated by her, and I think it turned out all right.
