Damn good dream

Impoverished mortal civilization. Main char is daughter of the king, scrappy, thinks they should rebel. Is in relationship with general's son but she's not really into it.

Father wants to keep licking the boots of the gods even though their people are starving and sick and dying. Then he gets sick, so she's kind of in charge with the general co-ruling but he gets killed in battle so it's her and the general's idiot son (im 99% sure it was thor in my dream)

Every year there's a celebration for the gods where they come down and spend the day with the mortals, and it's like a year long planning event but no one actually likes it because it's a huge drain on resources and there's no room for personal growth. This year especially, blight took out too many crops and with the king dying there isn't much else they can do.

Well the gods come. Their king looks around and is super upset that it's not some bumpin party, demands to know wtf is up. Princess goes off. "We're starving. Our people are ill. We don't have the time or patience to put up false tribute to please your arrogant ass" and he gets PISSeD. "You dare speak to me thusly? Blah blah blah" he ends up smacking thr shit out of her in front of the people.

Now, the people LOVE this bitch. She knows every single one of her denizens on sight, spends time with them, has spent the last few years learning medicine to help stave off this mysterious disease.

So they're pissed. Thorboy is like "hey now, she didnt mean it like that--" but she shoves him and says "shut up pussy you dont speak for me, i absolutely did mean it like that" and gets up in the gods face. "We bow to you no longer."

War. Instantly. The king is like "thats disappointing. Looks like another crop to cull, friends" and raises his hand to command his (small, like 20 people, but they're gods so cmon) entourage to attack.

Mortals have been prepping for something like this, just in case. The tension with the gods had been a long time coming and they kinda knew this would be how it would go down.

They manage to do pretty well against them, and the main show down is the princess vs the king and she's still standing by the time he realizes that 4 of his friends have been slain (with 2 dozen humand but still) and he's like "enough it's not worth it let's go. We'll be back" and peaces out

The mortals start actively planning their rebellion now. The general's boy is furious, goes off on her, "we cant betray them! They've done so much for us!"

She goes, "you can stand with me or against me, dick. But if you stand against me, our engagement is off" and he looks so torn because the dumbass thinks he's actually in love with her. Begrudglingly he standss with her.

The gods come back a few weeks later, in larger numbers. Their own princess is with them. It's this big showdown in the dead field. There's a battle, both sides lose a lot before the king makes what would've been a death blow against the main girl, but his daughter throws herself in the way to stop him. Hes pissed and confused and like "WHAT THE FUCK" and shes like "is it so important for your ego to be stroked that its worth killing off your only flock rather than help them?"

King is like "they failed and turned against me what else am i meant to do?"

"Let me stay and help them."

"But daughter"

"Please. Let me help them."

"Fine. But we'll be back" and he takes the general's son hostage and they leave.

The princesses are left alone, breathless and exhilarated.

Time skip bc im late to work

A year has passed. The god's daughter started out thinking this was just a wayward flock, incapable of actually wanting to be free, confused, but she has come to see their desire to be free. They have inventors and scientists and all these things beyond farmers that shes amazed. The king dies of his illness and the princess is coronated to queen. And the people begin to thrive again under her rule.

The gods come back a year later but they still havent prepared a feast. There's another war, this one even more in the mortals' favor with the creation of gunpowder and the god princess on their side. She's still on the fence at this point but leans towards the mortals more than the gods.

Again the gods leave, after the princess begs one more year, but its not just bc she wants to watch these people grow anymore. She has a deep personal interest in them

And in the queen

But the queen isnt interested in her, says she has to focus on the people she loves and that the princess could never understand

Except she does. She begins to form connections, friendships with the mortals, and about 6mo into this final year, the queen realizes it and is touched

3mo of flirting. Queen goes to talk to the princess about the preparations for the next battle and theres something the princess says that makes her heart flutter. She leaves, gets about halfway home, then turns around and runs back and jumps into the princess's arms and kisses her hard.

In front of a group of people. Sheepish and emvarrassed, she clears her throat and goes, "it was a moment" and walks off.

They get together.

By the time the gods come, they've decided they're in love.

There's another battle but the princess takes what would have been a killing blow for rhe queen. The god king is devastated, drops his hammer immediately and begs her forgiveness. She tells him to leave these people alone, and to ler her stay. Because shes in love.

And its like lil mermaid where he realizes she really is and is touched and gives her mortality so she can have a life with the mortal queen and they live happily ever after the end
