Enjoy!

"Who's birthday is in two days?" Celine fired back to her sister figure. "Someone needs to plan the party."

Ingrid smacked her forehead with her palm at the question. "Of course! Sylvain's is the 5th of the Garland Moon."

"Mhm." Celine hummed while nodding her head. Blythe knew what Celine was trying to say, now that the three girls knew what was going on. "Do you need someone to help you finalize it?"

"Just what the rest of you all are going to do." Celine responded. "I was going to take Sylvain down to the marketplace to distract him, but I don't know what you all are going to do."

"Well, I was planning on being in the kitchen with the Professor, Dedue, Ashe, and Mercedes." Blythe said. She then gestured to Ingrid, the blonde-haired Galatea standing there with a smile. "Ingrid was going to be in the classroom with Dimitri, Felix, and Annette."

Celine nodded in reply. Those plans made sense, especially for how Sylvain and Ashe both were at the current moment.

When Celine looked at Ingrid, she felt a sense of familiarity. She also felt it with Sylvain, Felix, and Dimitri, but the feeling is most apparent with Felix and Sylvain. Celine didn't know why she felt that way, but she had a feeling that the four Blue Lion nobles were a part of her unclear and distant past.

4th of the Garland Moon, Garreg Mach Monastery, Training Ground (Morning), Imperial Year 1180

Celine was on her way to the training ground, magic books in her hand. Dorothea, a member of the Black Eagle House who specialized in thunder magic, was willing to help Celine with learning thunder magic. The blue-haired, female swordsman also had her sword with her, in case it was needed in the training session.

Over the course of the Harpstring Moon, Celine had been working with Blythe and Annette to try and narrow down what kind of magic she was learning in her past. Blythe had helped Celine with fire magic back in the Great Tree Moon, but it resulted in both of them on the ground with Byleth and Jeralt watching. They tried again in the Harpstring Moon, but it didn't work, so Celine knew that fire magic was not for her.

Wind magic was even worse. Celine tried to work on that magic with both Blythe and Annette, but she couldn't conjure wind magic, even with the help of both girls. Once she failed at both wind and fire magic, Annette had the idea that Celine was practicing the last type of anima magic, thunder magic.

Celine had to admit that learning thunder magic made sense, as she knew that she was not learning dark magic. Only two people currently in the Officer's Academy were dabbling in dark magic, which was considered a rare form of magic that was mostly unseen. The two students were Hubert von Vestra of the Black Eagle House and Lysithea von Ordelia of the Golden Deer House.

Celine had arrived at the training ground after a few minutes of walking. She opened the door with her shoulder, along with the help of the training ground monitor. Celine thanked the training ground monitor while walking inside.

When Celine walked inside, she immediately saw Dorothea sitting on the ground. The swordsman walked over to Dorothea while putting her books down.

"Hello, Lili." Dorothea said while Celine sat down across from Dorothea. Celine quirked her eyebrow up in the air. "Lili? I've never heard that one before."
