《Tales of The Celestial Prince》Celestial Wedding I
Advertisement
A month had soon passed since The Celestial Wedding Preparations while the war with The Dark and Mysterious Hordes had soon come to a standstill, The Dark and Mysterious Hordes wore unique black suits of ancient Elven armor.
The only visible characteristic are their glowing red eyes and turning into fine black ash shortly after being killed.
After going on the defensive they soon began digging in and fortifying their footholds causing The Allied Armies' onslaught to then stall, causing both Silas and Selphie to then investigate the source of The Dark and Mysterious Horde.
After an in-depth and apparently short investigation, they had soon discovered both the true source and finally had a name to match the previously Unknown Horde.
The name of the now-known force was in fact The Dark Elf Empire one of Silas's many creations.
Much like The Elves.. The Dark Elves to had pristine white hair, skin, and the same near-immortal lifespans while also sharing the same youthful appearance making them all appear not a day over nineteen much like their Elf counterparts.
The only difference being both The Dark Elves and The Elves had drastically different cultures as both were indeed ancient races while the only other difference was that both races had different colored eyes.
The Elves had pristine white eyes while their counterparts The Dark Elves had peculiar red eyes.
Of course, both races sometimes had abnormalities much like every other race causing those abnormalities to then have uniquely colored eyes causing many to then confuse the two during both The Dark Ages and Demon Invasion.
After discovering The Dark Elves' involvement Silas couldn't help but feel both relieved and disappointed.
'Of course, they'd only send those magic constructs! No wonder why I felt such a familiar presence'
Silas helplessly thought.
"I should've paid more attention to them"
Silas confessed.
Causing Selphie to then quickly shake her head.
"Bully.."
Selphie pouted.
"Let's just sort this out before we're late to the wedding!"
Selphie excitedly reminded.
"Right! Anything for you Selphie"
Silas playfully relented.
"Bully.."
Selphie pouted even further.
Causing Silas's smile to then quickly brighten.
************
While in The Imperial Palace of The Dark Elf Empire the news of the 'small' and much weaker of the magic constructs after being formed as an expeditionary force being halted by a large and supposedly 'Unknown' Force.
Had soon reached the ears of the Empress causing her to then convene a small briefing with everyone involved.
As both the Empress and her top advisors entered the room a small column of The Empress's Guard soon followed while also locking and securing every exit.
Of course, she had known the finer details, however, she had believed they'd remain in The Forbidden Forest! Her instructions were just that as well, ultimately resulting in her taking a seat on her throne.
Before then simply waving her hand causing all who were previously bowing to then take their seats.

"Lord Volmen please explain to me what went wrong on the silly Expedition you yourself proposed?"
The Empress asked causing Volmen to then break out into a cold sweat.
"M-My Empress we have encountered unforeseen difficulties and request your intervention.."
Volmen pleaded causing The Empress to then glare at both him and his subordinates.
"Answer my question first! What unforeseen difficulties do you speak of Lord Volmen?! Because frankly, I have yet to receive any of these reports!"
The Empress scolded.
"M-My Empress we have encountered several different races all of which halted our advance.."
Volmen explained causing The Empress to almost throw her crown at him.
'Several races?! You promised a simple expedition into The Forbidden Forest, not a war! You bully! And yet you had the gall to request my intervention?!'
The Empress thought causing Volmen to almost vomit blood seeing the reaction of The Young Empress.
"Explain! Several races?! Stop wasting my time! Are you that incompetent?! Tell me the names of these races?! Or should I waltz over and ask them myself?! And how didn't you know about them?! Any child would've already known this!"
The Empress demanded.
"A-As you wish my Empress.. w-we've encountered Humans, Demi-Humans, Demons and.."
Volmen added before then cutting himself off causing The Empress to once again almost throw her crown at the idiot while still being somewhat surprised after the mention of Demons.
"And?!"
The Empress fumed.
"An-And The Elves.."
Volmen ended, surprising everyone once more.
'The Demons and The Elves why would they be inside of The Forbidden Forests?! Did that fool choose to ignore her empress's instructions and march off into The Continent of The Gods?!'
They all thought before then ultimately being cut off by a small figure who they had yet to notice.
"Yes, you have! Let me show you what it means to encounter your long-lost cousins!"
Selphie pouted causing both her and the room to then quickly be enveloped in a blinding light causing The Empress's Guard to then rush to her aid even while blinded.
After the light had dissipated everyone in the room was soon shocked to see the sudden change in the small figure who had the appearance of a little Elf girl yet still radiated with holy light.
Her aura, endless yet still gentle, her identity is none other than Lady Selphine The Goddess of The Elves in all her glory.
"Which bully thought it would be wise to send an 'expeditionary' force to lay siege to everything they encountered?"
Selphie wondered causing many including The Empress to then look to Volmen who then looked to them in disbelief.
"Lady Selphine.."
The Empress muttered causing another figure to then appear behind Selphie in a similar holy state.
His eyes were redder than anyone in the room had ever seen before, his warm smile calming yet parental both surprising and scaring them.

"Lor-Lord Silvanus?"
The Empress exclaimed causing Silas to then look to her with the same warm smile causing her to then immediately blush.
"Lor-Lord Silvanus, we are honored to be in your presence what do we owe such an honor?"
The Empress addressed.
"I'm afraid Selphi-I mean Lady Selphine has already told you this in my place"
Silas calmly declared.
"I-It was a lapse of judgment to allow such a fool an expedition.. I'll-"
The Empress nervously admitted all the while trying her best to remain calm before then finally being cut off.
"Then you'll stay"
Silas joked causing him to then quickly snap his fingers teleporting everyone other than The Empress to the 'full' baths of the opposite sex.
As a form of punishment for each and for their sins surprising The Empress who had then begun to shake after seeing that all of her subordinates had soon disappeared.
After teleporting the guilty parties away Silas had then begun noticing something he had failed to notice before.. The Empress of The Dark Elf Empire was in fact a young petite Dark Elf Girl!
She too had long pristine white hair, and skin to match, she wore an elegant black dress with sleeves much longer than her arms while also revealing parts of her neck and shoulder.
She also wore two black bows complimenting her pristine white ponytails and black knee-high boots.
Noticing this Silas couldn't help but admire her impeccable fashion sense before then noticing something else that he had failed to notice once more..
That being The Empress was now in fact truly crying?! Resulting in him no doubt being quite shocked by this to then look to Selphie who had already begun to glare him down.
"YOUR SUCH A BULLY!"
Selphie adorably yelled.
'It appears that I have indeed committed an unforgivable crime'
Silas helplessly thought before then helplessly approaching the now crying Empress, as he approached he soon began hearing whispers causing him to then stop before then listening closely.
"Please don't hurt me, please don't hurt me"
The Adorable Little Empress whispered repeatedly all the while now sobbing causing Silas's heart to then burst feeling both the sadness and guilt causing him to then quickly hug her tightly.
'Forget the crime! This is an unforgivable sin!'
Silas thought.
"No one's going to hurt you"
Silas reassured surprising The Empress.
"What do they call you other than Empress young one?"
Selphie reassuringly asked.
"A-Amelia"
Amelia mumbled.
'So precious!'
Silas thought.
"Amelia's a pretty name! and you're an Empress no less!"
Silas comforted.
"I'm terribly sorry for frightening you Amelia.."
Silas apologized causing Selphie to then quickly remember something.
"Silas, do you enjoy bullying 'little' Elf Girls?"
Selphie pouted.
"Only the cute ones which is all of them by the way!"
Silas shamelessly confessed causing both Amelia and Selphie to then blush.
"Si-Silas!"
Selphie reprimanded causing Silas to then happily hug Amelia even tighter.
'So warm!'
Silas warmly thought.
"Wha-What about Noel?"
Selphie curiously asked.
"Of course! She's my precious little sister! Why wouldn't I?"
Silas proudly admitted causing Amelia to then let out a muffled giggle.
"Amelia!"
Silas joked causing Amelia to then immediately jolt up before then slowly removing her head from Silas's chest.
"So-Sorry Lord Silvanus"
Amelia mumbled.
"So precious! Amelia from now on you can just call me Silas!"
Silas laughed.
"I-I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble for you, big brother.."
Amelia added surprising Silas.
'Big brother?'
Silas excitedly thought.
"It appears I may have gained yet another precious little sister!"
Silas proudly proclaimed causing Selphie to then quickly frown after noticing that Silas had already forgotten all about the war.
"Silas.. the war-"
Selphie reminded before then quickly being cut off once more.
"Right! Amelia! How about we end this war?"
Silas curiously queried causing Amelia to then remove her face from Silas's chest once more.
"I didn't even know we were at war until now! Those bullies! How did that bully even manage this?!"
Amelia pouted causing Selphie to then nod with approval both at her words and her excellent pout.
"Then it's decided! We can talk more at the wedding!"
Selphie excitedly added causing Silas to then nod before then looking to Amelia.
"Leave a note! We have a wedding to get to!"
Silas mentioned causing Amelia to then quickly nod.
After finishing Amelia hugged Silas's arm causing Silas to then hug her once more causing Selphie to then do the same.
'So warm!'
Selphie thought.
"Ready?"
Silas curiously queried causing both Amelia and Selphie to then nod.
After a flash of blinding light, they had soon arrived in the groom's ready room surprising the unsuspecting Bradley.
************
"Brother Silas?"
Bradley surprisingly asked.
Bradley wore an elegant white royal wedding robe with an extravagant white gold crown.
Fused with both precious gems and even more precious magical materials complimenting the already dreamy Bradley.
As an ancient Kingdom, The Kingdom of The Celestial Vale could also rival the Elves when it came to matters of wealth however some say The Kingdom of The Celestial Vale has long surpassed The Elves in that regard.
"You came! And your just on time!"
Bradley excitedly exclaimed before then looking to Amelia with a curious expression.
"Silas.. you didn't tell me you had a daughter? It appears Annie has won our little bet of ours!"
Bradley laughed causing Silas to then shake his head.
"This is Empress Amelia of The Dark Elf Empire!"
Silas proclaimed causing Bradley to then stare curiously look to the adorable little girl in front of him.
"What's that brother Silas?"
Bradley helplessly queried.

The year is 1969. Yancy Lazarus—bluesman, gambler, future world-class mage and fix-it man—is just a dumb, unlucky kid serving with the 3rd Battalion 3rd Marines in Vietnam.With just a few weeks left to go until Yancy gets shipped back to the States, he’s just trying to keep his head down and avoid a body bag—no mean feat in Nam. But when his squad is tasked with conducting a routine patrol deep in enemy territory, everything goes to nine kinds of hell, and he quickly sees his chances at survival slipping away.When the radio operators start to pick up some funky, dirty ol’ blues all the way out in the backcountry, it’s a nice change of pace. At least until the men in Yancy’s squad start losing their minds, turning on each other with murderous intent as the music works its deadly power within them. Convinced it’s some kind of new psychological warfare initiative, the squad leader forces the men to push deeper and deeper into the Vietnamese jungle, obsessed with locating the music’s source. What they find, however, isn’t some new technology, but an ancient spirit awoken by the terrible war. Even worse, the music is changing Yancy too, awakening something buried inside of him. Only one thing is certain, nothing is ever going to be the same.See how it all began … *** PRAISE FOR SIREN SONG:Hunter's writing is as low-down, gritty, and insidious as the blues Yancy Lazarus loves. Just like the mysterious music drifting through the jungle toward Yancy's squad, Siren Song will get under your skin and sink its hooks into your mind. —eden Hudson, Author of Halo Bound (the Redneck Apocalypse series) *** Hey everyone, this is James Hunter.
