empress....
If Nic is Empress.... of what world is she empress of and how does this empowering change come about? What is a synonym for Empress? If you are Empress of a world- is it a social world- does it extend to a larger realm? WIll the title last? Are you EMpress or Emperor of any world? IF so - how does it direct your actions?

The empowering change of Nic comes about when she realizes that she is attracted to females, asn acts on it. She becomes the Empress of her social world because she stands out as an individual and because she feels like an empress when she is first falling in love.
I think what makes someone or anyone an empress is them feeling like one. You need to value yourself and feel amazing, and then that it what you will be and your world, which is everything that you interact with on a day-to-day basis, will reflect your status of being and feeling amazing.

Nic is Empress of her world, a statement some of us cannot say about ourselves. She gains this new prospective on her life while at camp, where she gains a deeper understanding of herself. Nic is in a world where she is allowed to be who she truly is and love anyone, even if it is another girl. It is a wonderful thing that she can become an Empress by not following the majority, but rather following her heart. A synonym for Empress should be You and Me, but it’s not always the case. Many people fail to follow their true convictions like Nic did. They are often caught up in labels, as another post examined. However, once we are Empresses and Emperors of our worlds, we can stay rulers forever.
