[Fayura is quiet for a moment, as if the silence will help lend gravity to what she's about to say.]
Nothing good. There are... diaries, journals, things like that in the library in River East that talk around what the Queens were like, but the people lived in fear of their lives and held their tongues. What survives from before the Cataclysm suggests a gruesome rule by fear where people struck out against each other as a means of protection. If someone is dead, they can't hurt you. If a witch is broken, she can't enslave you.
[She swallows hard.]
You can also go to the amphitheater behind the Ebon Council's halls. They work in what used to be the Queen's Residence, and if... if you walk through those halls with your mind open—just a crack! Don't do more than that—you'll feel the echoes of the pain and the terror. Whoever ruled Hayll last... she was a monster.
