The '''Queen of Faeries''' is a minor {{NPC}} in {{Dragon Quest III}}, and a central figure in the [[dreamstone]] sidequest. True to her name, she is the ruler of {{Faerie}}kind.

==Appearance and personality==
The Queen is a young woman with the green hair and pointed ears of her kind. Her vestment differs slightly between her artwork and her in-game sprites, but she is always depicted as wearing a red dress with a golden tiara and matching necklace.  


As with nearly all of the fair folk she is intensely prejudiced towards humans and refuses to suffer any in her presence for longer than necessary; her disdain is so strong that she finds punishing an [[Norvik|entire village]] for the actions of a single man to be perfectly reasonable. The Queen is also judgmental towards her own kind, remaining furious with her daughter for breaking a racial taboo years after the fact and calling her stupid when speaking to the {{Hero 3}}. Despite the intensity of her actions the Queen speaks in a rather child-like manner more fitting for a little girl than a monarch, another trait shared with her subjects.

The Queen rules over her people in the [[Super Secret Faerie Village]], seated on a raised throne surrounded by tree stumps. When first spoken to by the {{Hero 3}}, she speaks with a very dismissive, childish syntax. The Queen is under the false assumption that a [[human]] man had kidnapped her daughter, Aniseed, and hidden the faerie's treasured dreamstone in the [[Underground Lake]] near their forest.

The Queen is under the false assumption that a [[human]] man had kidnapped her daughter, Aniseed, and hidden the faerie's treasured dreamstone in the [[Underground Lake]] near their forest.


Infuriated by these affronts, the Queen placed an eternal slumber curse upon the village of [[Norvik]] as revenge. The man's father was outside the village when this took place, and has spent years pleading with the bitter woman to reconsider as the people of the village had nothing to do with the young couple's elopement.

When the {{Hero 3}} descends to the nadir of the underground lake and opens the treasure chest housing the dreamstone, they also found a letter written by Aniseed. The letter is a suicide note, explaining that Aniseed is deeply in love with the man from [[Norvik]] and that they decided if the laws of their races will prevent them from being together in this world, then they will be inseparable in the next. The lovers drowned themselves in the eponymous lake, and the {{Hero 3}} relates the truth to the Queen.

The Queen refuses to listen until the letter is presented to her, and she recognizes her daughter's handwriting. She is mortified that her own hatred of [[human]]ity would drive her little girl to such extremes, and hands the party the [[Wakey Dust]] necessary to undue her curse on [[Norvik]]. Much later in the game, after the death of [[Baramos]], the Queen will have changed her ways and is thankful to the {{Hero 3}} for showing her the truth of the matter. She then politely asks that the group leaves her village, lest another tragedy take place again.

The Queen has been moved to a throne room inside of a giant tree and is now voiced, but her dialogue has not changed from the previous version of the game.
