Return to Dust (Return to Ashes) – Stephen Kennedy feat. Level 99

Fun fact! The Wild Arms soundtrack was one of the first purchases I ever made on ebay, and the chanting on the original track was fucking mind blowing the first time I heard it. (You can listen to it here if you want.) The Latin comes from the Ave Maria Virgo Serena chant- Et solis aurora/ Paradisi porta/ Per quam lux est orta.

I love the way this mix samples the original choral track, and then takes it on this wild ride across robots and acoustic guitar and techno beats. Genuinely this is my favorite kind of remix- something that really transforms the source material into something new and completely different.

[aggietoonie]

Right.. so I'm changing things here..

"Agatha Vis Delineandi" will be the full name of my OC. You can call her Agatha or Aggie if you want! She has Toon Force. A character with Toon Force can do things that go against the laws of physics, such as flying, teleporting, or even creating objects out of thin air.

I noticed some things that weren't making sense in her story, like the fact that Lux trapped all the other people and just had mercy with Aggie.

The story will be different here... According to Mr. Ring-a-Ding's appearance, in my AU, his real name is Lux because he is a magical creature HYBRID associated with LIGHT, and not a God! His full name will be "Lux Omnium". He has bug antennas, but has humanoid ears and body, and a pig nose, so I suppose he is a hybrid! I will be changing Mr. Ring-a-Ding's appearance too, but not too much because i do NOT wanna remove his iconic personality. By the way, Aggie already makes part of the cartoon, so no, she didn't get stuck inside the cartoon no more.. And I will also be changing Sunshine Sally's appearance aswell, because she needs a little bit more of charm...Her full name is "Sally Solis". And one more thing... Aggie's appearance will ALSO change a tiny bit again.. hehehe..

Sunny Town doesn't only have hybrids like Mr.Ring-a-Ding or Mr. Maximus, but OTHER creatures, like antromorph animals like the Easter Bunny, Humans like Sunshine Sally or "entities" like Ghosts.

The Fallen Pantheon, Light Song's Rule!

Description

The Fallen Pantheon was formed 48,000 years ago by Solis Cantus, aka Light Song, after her exile from the Celestial Pantheon due to her bloodlust and thirst for power.

During Light Song's lifetime, the Fallen Pantheon was strict, cruel, and uncaring, made up of spirits that joined her in order to solidify the treaty between her and their home kingdoms, or Royals who joined after Light Song destroyed their kingdom with their help (unknowing or fully willingly). Light Song's goal was to take over the entirety of Salha, and rule with an iron fist. If kingdoms refused to join an alliance with her, she destroyed them.

The Pantheon members themselves were strong, cunning, smart, sneaky, or helpful in some other way. If Light Song didn't have a use for them, they were either killed or, if they'd be useful outside of the Pantheon, stripped of their Deity status so someone actually useful could take their place.

Home Base

The majority of the Fallen Pantheon lives within the Bright Palace in Lux Aura. When it was first built back in the era shortly after the Original Pantheon, it was considered a beacon of hope and light going into the future, and was made on a platou overlooking the Capital City of the kingdom. It's been well-maintained, renovated, and rebuilt overtime to keep it in high quality, and any additions or rebuilds have been made with the same glowing moonstone-quartz the original bricks were made of, and the quarry is still operational. When Light Song made the Fallen Pantheon, she took over the Bright Palace, leaving the Royals of Lux Aura to remake a new castle to live in.

Members

(Descriptions & ages listed as of 30 years before Light Song's death, before Vizerxa took over the Pantheon from within)

The Fallen Pantheon is loosely divided into two parts, similar to the Celestial Pantheon's Major and Minor pantheons.

The ones closest to Light Song, or the ones considered highly powerful but unlikely to betray her, are called the Elites.

The other members are most frequently called Zelerins (Godly Zypherins/generals), since they generally had positions of power outside of being Gods.

Spirits who followed and were close to Light Song, awaiting the chance to become Deities under her, were called Souls. They are somewhere between Followers and Deities, aka Demigods. They usually command smaller parts of Light Song's armies, were used as messengers, or plain soldiers. Souls usually do not live in the Bright Palace permanently like the Pantheon, but do visit often and for long periods of time between missions.

Elites

Light Song / Solis Cantus

48,129 years old, physically 45.

Goddess of Light and Corruption.

The founder and leader. During life, she was a Queen of Lux Aura. She was killed, executed by the Royal Court, after attempting to poison her brother and the influential members of the Court. The Celestial Pantheon of her time was unaware of this, and accepted her into their ranks as the Goddess of Light and Power. After making her bloodlust known, she was exiled, and soon formed her own Pantheon.

Star Seer / Tenebris Deorum

197,654 years old, physically 50.

God of Prophecy and the Mindscape.

The main advisor due to his knowledge & wisdom from age, and his prophetic foresight. When he realized Light Song had the longest 'remaining life' of any Celestial God, he left the Celestials to follow her, and hopefully guide her down a better path. He joined out of the loneliness from outliving everyone he's known, and his tendency to cling to anyone with a long lifespan.

Vizerxa Mortem

567 years old, physically 35.

God of Observation and Strategy.

Light Song's advisor in wartime, and the one who officially brought down Regnum Deos in the Deorum War with her strategies. An unwilling addition who was brought in after being tricked by Light Song & her kingdom destroyed, but she's sworn loyalty and seems to stick true to it through Light Song's cruelty to others.

Amatus Maren

15,024 years old, physically 37.

God of Storms and Loyalty.

One of the few who joined Light Song willingly. Originally was part of the Celestial Pantheon, but left on his own due to having similar bloodlust and need for chaos as Light Song did, despite the heavy toll betraying his Pantheon put on his physical state. Is incredibly loyal to Light Song, and has bound every Fallen Deity and Soul to Light Song, so betraying or hurting her will physically harm them as well.

Aella Maren

15,002 years old, physically 24.

Goddess of Oceans and Exploration(travel/freedom).

Originally lived a nomadic pirate life on the ocean, but made a fatal mistake and attacked a ship that Light Song was on. Light Song killed Aella's beloved crew, and made her join the Pantheon. Aella stays loyal despite not being allowed to even see the ocean anymore due to the threat of Light Song possibly hunting down and killing her final Crew a second time, or killing her descendants.

Videns Mortem

586 years old, physically 19.

Goddess of Chaos and the Mindscape.

Despite being highly unpredictable and uncontrollable (without her powers cancelled), Videns is considered an Elite due to her highly useful powers and skills. When Light Song needs her to do something she possibly wouldn't do otherwise (such as Oleander assassinations), Light Song would mind control her. it has a weaker effect on Videns due to being a Mindscape god, but it still works.

Zelerins

Blood Moon / Xealryu Ruinam

5,463 years old, physically 37.

God of War and Strength.

Another willing member of the Fallen Pantheon, though originally joined due to a treaty between their home Kingdom and Light Song. Realized that the chaos and pain that Light Song brought was quite fun, and swore eternal loyalty. Is a Zypherin in Light Song's armies.

Mendacium Deorum

700 years old, physically 34.

God of Lies and Fire.

Originally joined as a spy for Regnum Deos during the Deorum War, but stays due to threats towards themself and their older sister. Incredibly strong and a useful Zypherin, but the inability to truly trust them leaves them unable to become an Elite, not that they even care about climbing the ranks of the Fallen.

Lucas Aurelius

478 years old, physically 28.

God of Plagues and Science.

A human-draconic hybrid who joined Light Song after hearing about the creation of Deathclaw Acid, and Light Song took him in after finding out about his general love and knowledge of science. Successfully managed to control and vaccinate several plague outbreaks in-between helping Light Song with experiments.

Snow Sky / Siviru Cantus

45,409 years old, physically 35.

God of Winter and Knowledge.

Joined out of guilt and the need to be loyal to her family, despite there being thousands of years between Light Song and Snow Sky. Is incredibly smart and resourceful due to her Domain, but doesn't often show it outside of helping devise strategies and supply runs. Acts as a guard alongside Path Changer.

Path Changer / Quazazel Utinam

734 years old, physically 25.

God of Order and Betrayal.

Was one of the Draconics manipulated by Light Song to break down their kingdoms. Given the title of God of Betrayal as a scathing remark towards how eager she was to gain more power. Usually acts as a guard for important personnel.

Genesis Ventus

562 years old, physically 19.

Goddess of Hopelessness, Pain, and Vengeance.

The main subject of the experiments that Light Song used to create Deathclaw Acid, but stays around due to not really knowing any other life or place. At one point left for two centuries after killing a large amount of Fallen, Celestial, Abyssmal, and Valaraen Gods, and her true unpredictableness makes it impossible for her to be an Elite despite her useful powers.

Zenaer Voru

18,103 years old, physically 24.

God of Art and Promises.

Started out as a Soul who followed Light Song due to wanting power for revenge. Light Song originally wasn't going to actually recruit him, but they managed to sneak in and rearrange everything in Light Song's study, and likely died of a plague due to no forms of poison, fatal injury, or drowning killed them.

Silas Xeqeri

345 years old, physically 45.

God of Life and Harvest

Joined Light Song to be a farmer/gardener for the Pantheon, and was more or less threatened by Light Song to do so. Was given an official Domain recently due to his affinity for plant-based magic and unusual luck with keeping healthy & abundant gardens. Not considered a highly ranked God, but still is a God nonetheless.

Souls

Fallere Mundi

128 years old, physically 20.

Follows Light Song out of curiosity and to keep her descendants safe, since if you're a loyal ally of Light Song, she likely will not harm your family badly if they happen to be in her way.

Amelia Aurelius

489 years old, physically 39.

Lucas's older sister who followed to ensure his safety, but was never given a Domain due to not really having anything notably significant to offer Light Song that she does not already have. Light Song keeps her around so Lucas does not try to betray her, and because Amelia can function quite well as a spy.

Victor Stellarum

89 years old, physically 23.

Grew up in Lux Aura with a lot of exposure to Light Song and admires her due to her power, strength, and global presence. After dying from unexpected circumstances, joined Light Song without hesitation. Due to his loyalty and admiration, there is a possibility of him becoming a God (or at least a Zypherin for her) in a couple more decades, or after he has a defined talent Light Song can use as a Domain.

"The Assistant and The Star"

Chapter 3, part 2: Preparations

It was the evening and Queen Amaya was making her way to the King's study again. It has been over 6 hours since the King and his assistant were last seen. She needed to be sure that they were okay, especially with the time of the Ceremony closing in. She entered the study to find it empty and the Hollow entrance open. The Queen look down the opening when she heard their voices.

"Uh, sir, AAA-"

"Oh, that's not-! Dwat! Hang on! Wait! Ow! Oh, OH NO-"

*BOOM*

Amaya was engulfed in a plosion of smoke that filled the room. Amaya ran out of the room in a coughing fit, letting the smoke out. She waved the smoke out of her face as she looked back. 'Good Heavens! Are they alright?'' She thought. Covering her nose and mouth with her elbow, Amaya walked back inside and down the stairs when the smoke suddenly dissipated. "Okay! The incantation was off this time. One more time! Get the lid." That was Magnifico's voice. Amaya walked as quiet as a mouse down to where the stairway opened up to the Hollow. King Magnifico stood 10 feet away from Asha who was holding onto a large black cauldron filled with a powder blue substance. Amaya took a step up and sat down where she was just out of sight. Bending onto her knees, she peered down with silent enthusiasm to watch her Sorcerer husband at work.

Magnifico raised his left hand towards the cauldron. "Hiems fabula, bellum hibernum. Hostibus omnibus qui quaerit restituere." He chanted softly. The cauldron's content began to bubble. "Hiems pernicies, iter inquietum." The liquid furiously bubbled and spiked upward like boiling porridge. The cauldron began to tremble.

Magnifico raised his voice. "Spiritus qui replent immensa ira!" Magnifico lifted his left hand higher as the liquid began taking shape. Little semisolid bodies arose from the liquid. Asha picked up the lid and placed it over the cauldron. She leaned over and held the lid down with her weight as the incomplete, agitated creatures attempted to burst free like before.

"Contristatus animabus, Lux votum rumpitur. Omnia peccata consume et coronam terrae vendicare!" He shouted. The cauldron shook viciously as little fingers poked from the lid. Asha could barely keep it shut. She looked at Magnifico with mild panic. He gave a firm nod. Asha pulled off the lid and little, white bodies covered with light blue flames erupted from the pot. A purple smoke poured over the edge of the pot and onto the floor.

*Like this, but make it blue

The little phantom s flew around the room, howling with the sounds of a snow storm. Inspite of their fiery appearance, a chill filled the air as they scattered about the Hollow. They crashed into the walls and threw things from bookshelves.

Amaya retreated a few steps up as a phantom neared her but it took no interest in pestering her. 'A recall to the Spring Equinox show' she thought, wrapping her arms around her as the chill intensified.

Magnifico brought up a shield over the shelves of glass containers with potions to prevent them from breaking any vials and causing a mixture that could spark another explosion.

"Is this going too far?" Asked Asha, hiding behind the cauldron and holding the lid over her head.

"They'll be fine. These phantoms are harmless and the people enjoy the thrill." Magnifico frowned. "And I got too many complaints about Spring still being cold."

"So, what now?" She asked, ducking as a phantom zoomed past her head.

Magnifico smiled. "The best part!" Amaya returned to her original position when she heard this. His staff above his head and recited a new chant. "In reditu solis, nova promissio. Domare iram excessus tenebras." Magnifico slowly swirled his staff as the glass head glowed gold. A golden stream of light flowed from the glass that grew large and thick. "Terra abundat cibo et calore! Lux accipiat meridiem et septentrionem!" He swiped his staff down and the stream was cut, still growing larger.

It solidified into a serpentine form that sprouted 2 pairs of feathered wings from its body. It opened 2 pairs of blue eyes and looked at the phantoms going about. Smooth as water, it flew around and opened its large maw. One by one, it swallowed the anguished spirits, replacing their piercing chill with a snug warmth.

All the phantoms gone, the summer serpent coiled around the hollow and lied down, its head next to Asha. It gave her a soft glace. "Heh, hi there." Asha said with a little wave. Sensing her tension, the serpent nestled its large head against her torso. "Oh! Oh, wow." She said, hugging the head. "You are so soft!"

Magnifico looked like he was about to burst with excitement when he finally laughed. "FINALLY! IT WORKED! Oh, this ceremony is going to be perfect!" He exclaimed, a soft blue glow radiating from his body. Amaya walked down to the bottom of the stair with a smile on her face. She loved to watch him practice his theatrics, the glee in his voice when they were successful always lit up her soul. She cleared her throat and Magnifico turned around.

"Amaya, Darling! Come come!" He beckoned. The serpent looked at the Queen and lifted up the coil between her and her husband. "You're just in time to meet our new friend." Right on cue, the large snake moved from Asha to Amaya. It gave her a little bow. Amaya laid her hand on its nose. "Marvelous." She whispered. Magnifico clapped his hands two times and the serpent faded away into a golden dust.

"Now this will be a show the people will never forget." He looked down at himself, still alight. "Am I glowing? I feel as if I am. Yes?"

Amaya chuckled. "Indeed you are, mi rey."

"Oh shoot, I forgot! Amaya, how long until the ceremony?" He asked.

"I believe we have an hour and a half before sunset."

"Okay, that's just enough time." He said. "Asha, you wrote down the herbs and measurements for the brew we just made?"

"Yes sir."

"Alright. Can you go to the kitchen and see if they have an empty barrel that we can use please? We should have enough materials that much more of the phantom brew."

Asha have a small bow and trotted up the stairs. Out of sight and footsteps unheard, the King heaved out a heavy sigh and knelt down on the floor. "Heh, that serpent was a bastard to correctly conjure." He chuckled. Amaya knelt down next to him.

"Magnus?" She started. "Are you sure you'll be in a well enough state to conduct a Wish Ceremony?"

"I have to be. I think I just to sit down for a while. Get a drink."

"Why don't you take a nap before the ceremony, my love?"

He groaned. "If it weren't for the ceremonial wishes, that would be the best thing for me." Naps are only helpful when there nothing else to do. The body demands rest if it not crash after long hours of work, but to momentarily shut down before something important to do later is a task it won't endure.

"Why don't you limit the Ceremony to one wish this time." She suggested. The seasonal Ceremony rehearsal is draining enough, the Ceremony itself can be a nightmare for Magnifico. At the Autumn Equinox, he presented an unorthodox opening show and surprised the people by granting 4 wishes instead of the standard 3. The people were ecstatic but it costed more energy than needed. The moment upon entering the castle, he collapsed. Fortunately, Asha and Amaya were there to catch him before he hit the floor.

"It's best I uphold the standard procedure. I don't want to deal with an agitated crowd again."

Amaya leaned into her husband's shoulder. "Standard procedure if you must but please, only the standard procedure. Be gentle with yourself." She turned her head to look into his eyes. "I need you well so that we can go to the Bluebell later."

"That sounds nice." Magnus hummed with a smile. "I promise you, I'll be careful."

- - -

It is now 15 minutes before sunset. Magnifico and Asha had filled up the barrel and gave it to a servant to place near the stage. Now, the two stand behind the opened obsidian doors of the study, in the Wish room. Wishes, glass-hard bubbles in shades of blue and purple present the image of the person they came from and their greatest desire. All collected by Magnifico.

In Asha's hand, is a long butterfly net. The presence of over a thousand wishes in this one room can be overwhelming during selections so Asha choose 10 at a time and he would choose the 3 for the ceremony. Asha lifted up her net and gently swung it in an arching motion above her head and came down filled. She counted 10 wishes inside the net. Another perfect swing.

She looked at Magnifico as he examined the last wish of her previous batch. It showed the man sailing through a vicious storm at sea. Laughing in the face of death. Magnifico pushed the wish up and let it float towards the ceiling. Rejected.

Floating in front of him was a small wooden treasure chest where he placed one wish. Accepted.

Asha brought her net over and turned over to the wishes out in front of him. He nodded to her in appreciation and sorted through them. 5 floated up. Rejected. Magnifico held up a pinkish blue wish and looked at the image. Not even two seconds later, he walked over and magically opened a large dark chest on the far end of room and the locked the wish inside. Forbidden.

Asha was too far from the King to see what the wish was but as he walked back, despite the look of indifference, there was a blush across his face.

The next wish made Magnifico freeze. Asha was a few feet away but dared 2 steps closer to look over at the wish. Magnifico turned to her and for a split second, there was a look of anxiety on his face. He handed her the wish. "Hold onto this please." He said.

After taking the wish, he went back to the remaining wishes. Asha looked at the wish in her hands, smiling at the warmth radiating from the ball, when a funny feeling came about. A feeling telling her to look at this wish. Usually, that feeling came when she was near a wish from someone that was on her list. Who wanted her to get their wish granted faster. She wanted to ignore it but it got stronger the longer she resisted. She exhaled out her nose as she fell to the persuasion again. She passed her hand over it and it revealed a short, old man with white hair wearing yellow. He was playing a mandolin before an awe inspired crowd. 'Is that... Saba Sabino?' She thought. So this was the wish that he wrote down. Why he wanted to go into the city with his mandolin.

She smiled at the image of her happy grandfather but what exactly was his wish with the crowd? Was it to show off? He showed the family his expertise with the mandolin and a few other string instruments. Sabino told her of his fame as a musician before he moved to Rosas. Hard to say it was to be famous again. He was happy as a casual member of the kingdom, and he talked about the downside of his fame with a passion. Asha looked at the crowd in the image. They had a spark in their eye, some of them danced with each other and a few walked away with a pep in their step.

This is more than just fame.

“Asha?” Magnifico’s voice pulled her out of her thoughts. “Yes?” She replied.

“I have one more wish to weigh the options for. Can I have that back please?” He held his hand out. Asha hesitated, she wanted to hold onto the wish longer. Find out what it means and feel its warmth. “It’s alright, it will always be safe.” He said. After a moment, Asha placed the wish in his hands and he turned to compare it to the other wish in his other hand. From Asha’s standpoint, she can only see Saba's wish. She waited in anticipation. She knows Sabino didn’t worry about the wish but the greatest thing to happen to someone is for their wish to be publicly granted. To see a wish embrace you. She was going to the festival and if she couldn't find anything in the market, maybe she could still give him this?

After an extraneous moment, a decision was made. Sabino’s wish was covered with a swipe of the hand and allowed to float away. The other wish was placed in the floating chest and closed. ‘Oh.’ Her only thought as she watched the King signal for all of the wishes to retreat to the ceiling. All preparations were in order. Magnifico took the little chest as the ceiling was completely obscured by the wishes.

She remembered those extra wishes that people asked her to take to the King. She thought of what her father said about achieving wishes. She thought about guidance of the stars. She decided to dip her toe in the water.

"Your majesty?”

“Yes?”

“Were there this many wishes when my father worked for you?"

"Well, no. The number was larger when he begun to worked for me. I capped the intake of wishes a few years ago. Why do you ask?" He placed the little chest on the counter of the room and turned to face her with curiosity, but Asha felt queasy. Was she really going ask about having the people wish on stars? Could she ask that? He was unresponsive when Tomás spoke about them. What would happen with Asha? Was she deep enough to dive?

"Tomás used to talk about how people wished on stars and were guided to achieve them. Could we teach the people to wish on stars?"

The King's eyes widened.

"With all due respect," She continued. "There are so many wishes in here and the people are eager to give another wish. We could give them another outlet for their wishes."

Magnifico was silent for a moment. "I'm afraid I can't allow that to occur."

Okay, he didn't shun her, but Asha needed to get the people off her back and get stars in the equation. She needed to dive in now. "May I ask why?"

"For safety concerns, I won't allow most to turn to ancient forms of magic, which includes communing with celestial spirits. I don't understand the limits of stars. Few do, and that could open a destructive door." He walked over to where his staff laid and pulled out a clean wag from a drawer. "If someone desired a bad wish and knew of star guidance, it could be difficult to stop them." He said, wiping his staff.

"Okay, that can be stopped, but most of the wishes here are good intentioned. We could return them and let the stars handle the rest?" Magnifico paused. "Excuse me?"

"A well-intentioned wish that poses no harm to anyone. It could be returned and we could tell that one person to wish upon on a star for help instead."

"Asha. It's not simple." He said with annoyance as he polished the staff faster. "A star won't have the same passion for the wish as the wisher. At best, the wish is granted in the letter but not the spirit of the person. At worst, the star won't grant the wish and the person might be left in anguish. And for reasons of wishes, people come to Rosas because they either can't make their dream come true or they can but they don't want the struggle of the journey. The citizens consent to giving me their wishes, knowing that they will forget it. With that, I receive a wish every year to show me any change in a citizen's character. Then by my hand, I allow them to live with little to no worries." He said, looking at his reflection in the polished glass head.

This couldn't be. Surely, the people hadn't traded their dignity to fatten themselves on the comfort of endless luxury. Yes, there are wishes that couldn't and shouldn't be achieved but those are what Magnifico could collect and still protect. Isn't the long, rocky journey and gradual progress what makes a dream all the more flavorful to have? Why Tomás insisted she keep her strange drawings from when she was 8 to highlight her improvement? The indomitable spirit of man has risen so beautifully with the guidance of stars. Why were they both being muffled?

"But... this isn't right. It's too much and too little. They can't just agree to give up the most beautiful part of themselves for luxury. The stars helped build the intuition and wisdom of humanity for centuries!"

"Asha." He said in a warning tone.

"Many of the people here are good. The stars are also good. We can lessen the weight on our shoulders and give the people the help that they need. The help that they deserve. We can rely on the stars to-"

"NO ONE can rely on the nobility of a STAR!" he snapped!

Asha took a step back. She may have dove too far.

The two remained silent, the air so thick that you cut it with a knife.

Magnifico groaned as he pinched the bridge of his nose and bent his head down in embarrassment. "My apologies, Asha. I... don't know what that was." He looked back at her. "I understand that that you and Tomás want to ease my work by reinstating the tradition of wishing on stars but... They don't always answer their summons, so we can't trust them in most circumstances. And I won't use an unpredictable tactic if it presents any risk for..." -his eyes glanced out towards the north wall of his study- "destruction."

Asha followed his gaze to a tapestry on the wall. Or what was left of the tapestry. It showed a royal family before a castle under a starry sky but much of the bottom and part of right side of the tapestry was burnt away. What should be a family of 5 only had 4. A man with a starry crown, 2 crowned women and a child. Part of their bottom half were also burnt away.

"I understand, sire. I'm sorry for my transgressions." She wringed her hands together as she bowed down. "I understand if you want me to leave for the day."

"No, no. The fault is mine to claim. You're passionate about helping people, and I adore that in a person. It's a virtue of youth." Asha rose up and he sighed. "It can drive you Asha, but a fire won't always care about the whereabouts of a moth."

"I understand. Thank you sir."

There was a sound of trumpets outside and a door opened behind.

"Mi rey, flor pequeña?" Amaya called out and then saw the two. "Sorry to interrupt anything but it's time for the Solstice Ceremony. The citizens are being gathered."

Magnifico gaze softened as he looked at her. "Is it, Mi Reina?" He chimed as he signaled the ceremonial wish chest to float over to Asha. "Come. The day's not over yet."

A/N:

Tumblr needs to work with me here.

So this was longer than expected so I'm going to part 3 to this chapter. This feels like when book adapted movies make the final book in a series into two parts because it was too long.

I didn't expect the wish sequence and the quarrel to be so hard to write. I actually like how it came out. Trying to make this less telling but that's not really something I can do in a writing format. But I'm excited to get to the symbolism of my third part.
