- "I see I’ll have to take drastic measures to ensure intelligent conversation around here."
- ―Dread Empress Maledicta II, before having the tongues of the entire Imperial court ripped out[1]
Maledicta the Second was a former Dread Empress of Praes. She succeeded Regalia II around 650 AD, reigning during the Sixty Years War.[2] She ripped out the tongues of the entire Imperial court. After her assassination, Praes underwent a 20-year interregnum period referred to as "Haider’s Reign" or "the Throneless Years" (in official Praesi records).[3]
