Another sneak peek:
"And this tablet was in your home?"
"Precisely, Your Highness."
Celestia rubbed her chin thoughtfully as the late morning light graced her from the Palace windows. Octavia stood by her expectantly. Although she felt that the hooded woman's threat was empty, the morning brought anxiety on the subject. She did not want to risk it as the woman was armed and was intimidating. So she felt inclined to seek the Empress's advice.
The Empress began to walk slowly down the massive hallway they were in. Octavia, with her mind dissecting something else, was late to follow her immediately and had to quicken her step. The gray and black day gown she wore fluttered with the movement of her legs. Her slower strides kept up with the much longer ones of the wise ruler.
"Has anything else happened, my dear?" Celestia asked motherly, her brilliant eyes inspected the cello player with subtle care.
"Not really. You know well that I have seen the like of these hooded fiends before. None had ever noticed me though. They were just a constant in the background for me, but they seem to be much more than that now," Octavia muttered as she placed a firm hand on her hip.
Celestia ended her brief walk at one of the stained glass windows that depicted the major events of old that shaped the Empire into existence. The green, white, and blues glittered upon the ancient walls and the red rugs. A single fire was placed in its radiant as it burned incense into the otherwise still air.
Octavia stood by her closely and followed her gaze through a clear spot in the window. The city of Canterlot was spread out before them. With the height of the Palace, there was not much one couldn't see from its high windows and arching bridges that connected the tall spires together. The late morning sunshine was almost directly over the city, giving light to even the East District, which was often literally overshadowed by the monstrous mountain that the capital rested upon. It was quite the sight to behold, but one that Octavia took for granted and ignored completely.
If you are new here, I'm working hard on my dream project: Harmony's Creed: Brotherhood. It takes priority above all other stories at the moment and future. If you haven't guessed by now, it's a humanized Assassin's Creed crossover in an Alternate Equestria.
-Cheers for That!
it comes!!
