"the pillar of their house" | Greek Mythology: Cassiopeia & Andromeda, here at the end of all things

Title: the pillar of their house
Fandom: Greek Mythology
Characters: Andromeda, Cassiopeia
Rating/Content Warning: No additional warnings beside the subject matter of the myth.
Word Count: 1530
Summary: The boast is all they remember of her mother these days. Not the clear-eyed, careful debates; not the joy that lingered in Joppa throughout Queen Cassiopeia’s reign; certainly not the fact that she had a daughter who she loved for more than her beauty.
A/N: This plot bunny has refused to let go. I'm so sorry! Title from Ovid's retelling of the Perseus/Andromeda myth.
