That's when Yoke and Albumen had to deliver the news.\n\n\"Three Egg Yokes! WHAT?\" Vitellus cried, \"That doesn't make sense. But he were supposed to have eggs together, make Omelets together, create new _recipes_. We were going to be happy together.\"\n\nPretty soon, Vitellus' mom was in on the news. \"That doesn't make any sense.\" Chorion fumed, \"Nobody just up and leaves when they could have the honor of Laying Eggs.\"\n\nAnd from there, there was no stopping the news as Chorion went on and on ranting to everybody about the lack of vision of the younger generation.\n\nBy late afternoon, Albumen and Yoke were called before the Queen.\n\nAs they stepped before the throne, Queen Omelet looked at them with anxiety in her eyes. She was eating from a platter a leftover Omelet from breakfast.\n\n\"I couldn't help but hear the news,\" Queen Omelet said, \"Has your daughter really left us? Why?\"\n\nAlbumen looked uncomfortable, so Yoke spoke up. \"She wanted to discover if there was more to life than just Laying Eggs.\"\n\nQueen Omelet spat out the contents of her mouth, pieces of Omelet shooting all across the room. \"THREE EGG YOKES!\"\n\nQueen Omelet's guards immediately went around retrieving the pieces of egg scattered across the room, and put it back on her plate. Though she had significant Omelet left, they knew she wouldn't want to waste a single bite.\n\nBut right now, Queen Omelet was distracted, sitting on her throne anxious and confused. This young Embryo didn't like Eggs? It didn't make sense to her. Finally, her mind began to clear, and she began to make sense of the situation. She turned to Albumen and Yoke.\n\n\"No reason to be worried,\" she assured them, \"Embryo is just young and confused. She doesn't understand the beauties of Egg Laying yet. But eventually, she will, she'll see the wonder that is the Egg. Whether here or elsewhere, she will come to see the obvious, and then she'll return to us, and we'll all be reunited under one majestic love for the Egg.\"\n\nHer wings spread wide into the air, tears rolled down her face at the beauty of her own speech. She looked at Embryo's parents. \"You are dismissed.\"\n\nBut as they left, Queen Omelet couldn't help but feel the anxiety creeping back up in her. She tried to shove it down.\n\n_Don't worry. We don't need to do anything. She'll see for herself. She will see for herself. Nobody can forget the beauty of the Egg for long._\n\nAnd with that, Queen Omelet began to relax.\n\n_Everyone will know the beauty of the Egg eventually._\n\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"Legend of the OmeletWings","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1738432-legend-of-the-omeletwings-chapter-5-tavern.json","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1738742-legend-of-the-omeletwings-chapter-7-meadow.json"}}
