Queen of Dust

The Queen of Dust is a minor character in Every Heart a Doorway.

History
The Queen of Dust is the ruler of Webworld, and asked Loriel to become her adopted daughter after her heroic actions. Loriel told her that she wanted nothing more, but first had to tell her parents back in the Reality. The Queen warned her that she would have to look harder than she ever had before to find her door again, before letting her go home. She then held a door open in the corner of her bedroom for two years and six months using the most complicated of magic, before releasing the spell and retiring to her chambers for a year of mourning, having correctly assumed that Loriel had died and would not return.

Loriel Youngers
The Queen of Dust offered to adopt Loriel as her own daughter, but allowed her to return home to tell her parents first. She then held a door open for her for two years and six months, before she can't hold it any longer and mourns for a year, implying that they were very close.
