《Tales of The Celestial Prince》Celestial Sentiment IV Organizing The Guard
Advertisement
Back in The Celestial Palace both Mili and the young prince had just finished showing off their forms, as the day passed both had soon returned to their individual rooms before then finally falling asleep.
While they slept Emilia and The Elfin Imperial Guard had already arrived and begun organizing both The Celestial Praetorian Guard and The Elfin Imperial Guard with the help of Aldra, Selphie, Annie, and Amber who had also stayed up.
Leaving Mili in the hands of Mai, Vivian, and even Elisabet who had started switching between sleeping in Marjorie's, Mili's, and the young prince's rooms, all the while for the young prince was left in the hands of Noel, Rory, Iris, and Stella.
While both slept Celie and Emilia awaited Annie, Amber, and Aldra while they ate a late-night dinner.
"I don't believe I've ever eaten dinner this late before.. I thought of eating at an inn or even sending one of The Elfin Imperial Guard to catch something, I'm glad I waited"
Emilia giggled causing Celie to then adorably laugh.
"Me neither! And I agree! Waiting makes the food taste even better!"
Celie happily agreed before then munching on her spicy chicken spring rolls causing Emilia to then playfully giggle.
Moments later Aldra, Annie, Amber, and Selphie had soon arrived.
"A second dinner? Don't mind if I do!"
Annie openly thought before then grabbing one of the many plates and diving in causing Amber to then adorably shake her head.
"Right! I haven't eaten dinner yet! I was wondering why my stomach was growling!"
Amber helplessly remembered before then grabbing a plate as well causing her to then also adorably dive in before then excitedly sitting next to Celie.
Causing both Selphie and Aldra to then helplessly smile after remembering the same causing Emilia to then softly giggle once more.
"I knew it! I'm glad me and Emilia were right! Now I don't feel bad for overworking your chefs!"
Celie happily sighed causing Emilia to then playfully shake her head.
"They were about to clean up, fortunately, Bradley hadn't had his dinner yet either"
Emilia remembered causing Aldra to then playfully nod.
"Bradley stayed up while Theodore caught him up with those 'foreign' incursions, to put it plainly we might just have another conference soon, however, this time we may have a little surprise when Theodore returns.."
Aldra playfully hinted surprising all four.
"Oh? What kind of surprise?"
Emilia asked causing all four to then curiously look to Aldra.
"It seems Theodore may have finally found himself a daughte-"
Aldra surprisingly confessed.
"Oh, my gods! Did Theodore finally do the deed and get Holly pregnant?!"
Celie jokingly giggled shocking everyone.
Causing Aldra to then adorably blush before then playfully shaking her head.
"Wait just a minute! Holly and Theodore are a thing?! How is it no one ever told me! How shameless! Celes owes me an explanation!"
Annie jokingly pouted causing Amber to then quickly blush.
"Tha-That's not what I meant Celie!"
Aldra helplessly coughed surprising Celie.
Causing her to then adorably freeze.

"Th-Then.. what did you mean?"
Celie curiously asked causing Aldra to then finally calm her heart.
All the while Selphie was adorably dying of laughter causing Annie and Amber to then join in while Emilia was in the corner gently giggling away.
"I-I meant Theodore ad-adopted.."
Aldra helplessly confessed.
Causing Celie's heart to then immediately drop causing everyone to then laugh even more.
"Sh-She's going to kill me!"
Celie cried causing Annie to then helplessly calm down.
"Sh-She's a priestess at most she'd reprimand you! And I wouldn't worry too much about Lady Celes either!"
"She'd probably be dying of laughter much like Selphie over here before then finally reprimanding Holly causing our favorite goddess to then give her another blessing afterward!"
Annie reassured causing Celie to then helplessly smile causing Emilia to then also calm down.
"The Grand Priestess of The Temple of Celes and The Lord Commander of The Celestial King's Guard.. sounds too perfect?"
Emilia gently giggled causing Aldra to then quickly giggle as well before then excitedly remembering something.
"I also forgot to mention something earlier, and it seems their resemblance is uncanny, they should also be here sometime tomorrow so you should see those two for yourselves"
Aldra remembered.
Causing everyone to then excitedly nod, after the late-night dinner everyone had soon begun their tasks of organizing the young prince's personal guard.
"I wonder.. where's the Lord Commander of The Elfin Imperial Guard at?"
Celie asked causing Emilia to then playfully raise her hand shocking everyone including Aldra once more.
"Yo-You're Th-The Lord Commander of The Elfin Imperial Guard?"
Celie surprisingly asked causing Emilia to then playfully giggle.
"It seems even Aldra is surprised, I never thought I'd see that expression out of her! But yes I'm The 'Lord' Commander of The Elfin Imperial Guard, I've been so for the last millennium"
Emilia proudly confessed.
Surprising everyone causing Selphie to then playfully shake her head.
"What people don't realize is that despite our current calendar everything's far more ancient than what many might believe, only us gods and those immortal existences know what happened during The Dark Ages?"
"If we're being honest Emilia was the fourth person to lead The Elfin Imperial Guard, and for The Celestial Praetorian Guard our Celie was the seventh to date"
Selphie proudly explained surprising everyone.
"I knew Celes was hiding something from me! She said I was the third!"
Celie pouted.
Causing Selphie to then helplessly smile.
"She would probably believe that but she herself was even lazier in the past.. especially during The Dark Ages!"
"She only got involved after The Kingdom of The Celestial Vale turned into The Celestial Empire, hence why there is a Celestial Praetorian Guard in the first place.."
"And for The Kingdom of The Elves something similar occurred, the name, of course, was The Elfin Empire, and you should already know where The Elfin Imperial Guard got their name from.."
"With that being said there was even a war between the two known as The Elfin Celestial War where Sky Castles and Palaces ruled the skies!"

Selphie happily explained before then finally calming down.
"Let's not get into that! Back to helping our celestial teddy bear organize his guard!"
Selphie adorably shushed.
Causing everyone to then helplessly nod.
"Right.. anyways from what I've seen our adorable little prince is fixated on both the most Ancient and Iconic uniforms, banners, and ect! Have you decided on any of those yet?"
Celie asked causing Emilia to then playfully nod.
"Well of course, after hearing those characteristics from the previous discussions I've come prepared! I chose the oldest yet most noteworthy of our sets"
Emilia proudly chimed in causing Celie to then adorably nod with approval all the while causing Emilia to then excitedly remember something before then excitedly looking to Selphie with an excitedly gentle expression.
"If I remember correctly both you and Silas are planning a tour of some sort, Kethryllia plans to do her own mini-tour alongside you two and I'm hoping to do the same however my taste are a bit.. exotic!"
Emilia remembered surprising Selphie causing her to then curiously smile.
"Exotic in what way?"
Selphie happily asked causing Emilia to then curiously remember something before then gently nodding.
"As you mentioned before, a lot did happen during The Dark Ages, and afterwards we lost contact with many of The Elven Races, one of which were our cousins The High Elves!"
"I'm hoping to visit our long-lost cousins and see how their fairing after The Dark Ages, I was also hoping to bring our young Aurel along as it'll be an entirely new experience for him"
Emilia explained surprising Selphie once more before then adorably cringing.
"Tha-That's not a bad idea.. and your right it should be good for him, after all The High Elves do worship me alongside 'Celes' much like every race does with their Origin Gods.."
Selphie confessed.
Surprising everyone causing Annie to then helplessly smile.
"I never heard about what happened between you two.. but knowing Celes she probably did something out of spite didn't she?"
Annie helplessly asked.
Causing Selphie to then helplessly nod.
"You can say that.. Celes is quite difficult and competitive in her own right, she's second only to me and Silas and refuses to accept any 'subpar' creations"
"Resulting in her doing anything to gain an equal footing with both me and Silas having actually managed to do so"
Selphie admired causing everyone to then helplessly smile after contemplating what was bothering Selphie causing her to then adorably smile.
"If I'm being honest.. she's simply brilliant and couldn't care less about those bothersome rules and even takes advantage of them much as Silas does?"
"She proved that by recreating my creations in her own image without even asking to see my templates.. and she got pretty close too!"
Selphie curiously confessed causing everyone to then adorably sigh with relief surprising Selphie.
"What? We may be rivals but I'm still impressed! I was still surprised at the fact that she actually gave me some credit! But even then I've never been that close to them, yes I may or may not have a temple or two there but still!"
Selphie playfully pouted causing Annie to then laugh.
"Trust me neither has she! She put even less effort into them and even fewer demigods so you needn't worry about such things!"
Annie laughed.
Causing both Celie and Amber to then helplessly nod surprising Selphie even more causing both Emilia and Aldra to then gently giggle.
"L-Lady Selphine flustered? I thought I'd never see the day!"
Emilia jokingly giggled
Causing Selphie to then adorably blush.
"Laug-Laughing at your favorite goddess? How shameless of you Emilia!"
Selphie jokingly pouted
Causing Emilia to then helplessly calm down before then playfully shaking her head.
"Oh Lady Selphine please forgive me for my teasing"
Emilia sincerely teased.
Causing Selphie to then adorably laugh.
"Emilia deep down under all those formalities and royal etiquette you're still as precious as the little girl I knew so long ago!"
Selphie proudly confessed.
Causing Emilia to then playfully nod before then suddenly remembering the topic on hand.
"Oh dear.. I fear we may have fallen off-topic!"
Emilia remembered.
Causing Celie to then adorably yawn before then adorably nodding.
"I fear it's a habit of ours now, fortunately for us the uniforms, armors, and banners have already been decided! So at least we've been somewhat productive!"
Celie adorably yawned causing Emilia to then helplessly nod.
"Right back to our tasks then? I believe it'll be more appropriate to have a small detachment of eight personal guards with him at all times, not including both me and Celie of course"
"Soo it'll be about half and a half from both The Elfin Imperial Guard and your Celestial Praetorians as to even those two out"
"And of course having an even larger detachment is also needed in any case, for transportation, a Sky Castle can easily fulfill all of these requirements and ensure his safety?"
"No matter what others may say at least they won't blame us for protecting our precious 'first' prince? Later we should also focus on Rory's Stella's and others and their personal guards as well"
Emilia curiously explained.
Causing Celie to then adorably nod.
"We also have several Sky Palaces that pack a punch, especially the oldest one! It's pretty much a Sky Castle especially when it comes to the sheer firepower maybe even two of them!"
"And I bet he'd love the garden! It'll both protect and soothe him no matter what!"
Celie remembered surprising everyone causing everyone to then excitedly nod.
"Aurel loves gardens so that'll really help him relieve some of his boredom on longer trips! Plus he can plant and collect seeds during the tour! He'll love it!"
Amber remembered as well causing Annie to then excitedly hug both Amber and Celie.
"So precious and hardworking! I can just eat you two right up! You'd make a better dessert than anything we have now!"
Annie playfully exclaimed causing everyone to then adorably smile.

Saga of the Space Marines
HARVEST! BUILD! DESTROY! Total war until annihilation. This is the story of the end of the human race. If it sounds like fun it’s because it is. The Saga relates the events and personal histories of the men of the 3rd Marine Space Expeditionary Force and their bitter MAXWAR (mutually assured eXtinction war) against the alien Krag Subjugation. Told from the view point of the warfighters on the front lines, the blue collar workers who build and maintain the infrastructure that supports them, and the scientists and engineers who develop the technologies that power their victories on the battlefield. This mission, The Maggot Colony, relates the first part of the adventure, where their capital ship, The Good Shepherd, is critically damaged, and a small force is sent to establish an outpost on the surface of a nearby planet to secure much needed emergency supplies and fuel. The situation is desperate, the fighting is brutal and the technical challenges both in space and on the planet surface seem insurmountable. Fans who enjoy the intellectual challenges and intricate storylines from real-time-strategy games such as Starcraft II or the pure destructive awesomeness of first person shooters such as Doom, Halo and Gears of War are encouraged to check out the Space Marines. It’s not for everyone, but it might be just what you are looking for. Best of luck in choosing your next read, and if you don’t pick the Saga of the Space Marines today please consider us next time because reading great stories is time well spent.
