All is well in the Duchy---NOT

The Dots heard from Black Dot Castle that the Black Queen's plans are working wonderfully. The villages and peasants are content and happy and all is well in the Duchy. The Dots wonder why the villages and peasants they talk to are not content and happy. Can it be there is a failure to communicate here?
Silver also heard that the Black Queen is assuring everyone that Silver's new robes and wizard's hat are almost ready. Silver is wondering, "If the new robes are for me, why haven't I been measured? Maybe it's to be a surprise. Do you suppose there will be cake?"

All is well???? Why are there so many villages without a peasant??? Why are the "substitute" peasants not being called on to help out. Why haven't the town criers called out for new peasants, or ye old newspaper posted for new ones?
If this is what is called "well"...then where would we be ere the plague would hit?

It was reported a certain "sub" peasant was suddenly cut off from the "list serve". Is the Black Queen attempting to sever ties with those that want to help fill the void?
Like the Little Red Hen...HR knows nothing about hiring! Just like Pansy(?) knew "nothin' bout birthin' no babies!

Don't you recognize that method of dealing with life made popular by so many babies and toddlers? The Black Queen is celebrating her second childhood by putting her hands over her eyes and saying "You can't see me." Apparently unless every one of the Queen's minions from top to bottom aren't told there are problems, there aren't any problems. Miss just one and the problems evaporate like black mist on the breeze. Oh, if life were that easy.
