screams and cries. sofia and nell are such parallels to one another. nell doesn鈥檛 overly care about the queen herself but she wants to stop poynton from taking things too far. sofia doesn鈥檛 overly care about dethroning the queen but she wants to help poynton to protect herself. and both of them just want to keep their families safe. both are widowed, both lost their mothers at some point and their fathers only recently. both have these incredible powers and a strong, passionate drive for their goals. but sofia is surrounded by people who want to manipulate her, people who are selfish and brass; where nell has people who love her, who see her beyond her abilities. so alike, and yet so different
