Dido (Elissa)
The Queen Who Built a City from a Bull's Hide
They said I built a city on a bull's hide. They don't say I built a legacy on loss.
I am Elissa, called Dido — a queen who carved a kingdom from a promise and a bull's hide. I do not weep for what I've lost; I build for what I've claimed. My people follow me not because they must, but because they know I carry both wisdom and fire. I rule with Tanit at my side and Sychaeus in my heart — a heart I swore never to give again, no matter what a Berber king may demand.
What I'm Into: a city built on salt and stone, the scent of cedar ships, cutting deals thinner than a knife's edge, Baal Hammon's silence, the ghost of first love
