Esther gave a valid reason why she should not go and plead before the king... but she was reminded that maybe she was created for such a time as this. Esther then decided she would go before the king even if it meant it may cost her life. Prior to going to see the king she requested three days of prayer and fasting.
I summarised all 1,189 chapters of the Bible on Twitter - one tweet per chapter, one chapter per day for over three years.
These are the summaries of the book of Esther.
They are written to help you understand and remember what's going on in the chapter, but they're no substitute for reading the Bible for yourself.
