For every new update to the chapter I will Make a Border line like this. ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$)

Drip drop. Chirp chirp. Rustle rustle. These continuous sounds fill the air, as the morning sun begins to wake. Drops of wood drip from the smallest blades of grass, to the large Asprious* wood made roofs. Morning Sparrows, and great green Spoofs* chirp as they wake from nights rest.Large tails attached to Clagionons rustle on pelt made beds.The sun rising higher awakes young cubling’s to pester their mothers. One cubling in particular was having trouble waking up.

“Princess, your mother is waiting in the dining hall,” a Royal Guard announced, after a knock of talons on the thick wooden door.

A light thump and a groan was the only response given,as the princess rolled off of her pelts.

“I shall tell your mother you will be there shortly,” he said.

With the sounds of footsteps leaving the princess stretched out her tired limbs. With a ruffle of her wings, she walked into the hall to join her mother for breakfast.

. . .

‘Her sleeping really needs to be nipped in the butt soon, now that she will be starting her coronation lessons’, the Princess mother thought to herself. Queen Moonlight is a kind and just leader, but do not mistake her kindness for weakness. She has become well known as the strongest Queen of Amnisiana, known as the “Land of Dreams”. Her people have high respect for her, and would willingly give their lives in battle for her claim.

With a loud thump from the Asprious wood door, The princesses entered the dining hall, and made her way to sit beside her mother.

“ How did you sleep my Daughter?”, Queen Moonlight asked.

“ My sleep was fine, although my magic was surging again. It was still quite hard to keep it under control but I managed”, she finished.

(Asprious* is a dark wooded tree with deep green leaves)

(Spoofs* green feathered birds with orange beaks, blue eyes and dragon-like feet.)

“ I will have the palace mage assist you with your magic control. You're coming of age so your magic is kicking in. You just need to practice how your magic works for you in order to keep it under control”, she finished.

“Thank you mother, what is on the agenda for today”, she asked.

“ Today's schedule will be the same as yesterday. Although instead of your free time after court lessons, I will send the palace mage to the sparring room for your magic control”, her mother finished. “ Your father also wants you after breakfast for combat training. He said he had something special planned for you. The amount of free will I give your father sometimes concerns me”, she joked with a light laugh.

“ Then I should finish fast. I don't want to keep father waiting”, she chuckled. She loved how much her parents loved each other. One day, maybe she will find the same kind of love.

“ Right you should, if he pulls one of his pranks again do tell, I have a busy schedule with assessing your royal guard to be. I Love you my Starlight, and I hope your day is grand”, she finished before standing and leaving the dining hall. 

Starlight quickly finished her food and thanked the clan members for the meal. The last thing they saw as she ran out of the hall was an orange colored tail with silver tail spikes.

. . .

Huff. Huff. Clack. Clack. These were the only sounds coming down the corridor to the back end of the palace. Even though she could use her super speed to get to the sparring grounds faster, Starlight was taught not to do so on palace grounds unless it was an emergency. And something along the lines of “ The people will wait for the Royals”. Two guards quickly opened the doors to the back exit of the castle as Starlight jogged out the doors. As the breeze ruffled her fur, and ran pleasantly over her wing’s, she took flight. Flying was something cubling’s knew how to do from the very moment they were born.

An instinct, one that Starlight loved. Flying is one of her most favorite things to do in her free time other than cooking. Seeing the clearing they used for sparing, Starlight began to descend from the sky.Landing with a light thud, She giggled and ran to her father. He wrapped his large warm blue and teal wings around his beautiful little girl. Although Starlight liked her mother a lot, he Father had always been her favorite. That might have also been because he spoiled her so much.

“Mother said you had a different kind of training in mind for today?”, she questioned as her blue-green eyes met her fathers blue ones.

' I have brought some of the best mages in the clan to help you learn about magic combat.’ ‘So far, I have only had you training in physical combat, but there will be a day when magic will get involved.”, He paused.

Four rather large Clagionon’s seemed to materialize from thin air, with a slight shine of color to each their own. With eyes shining with excitement, Starlight looked over the four Mages in front of her. The only one she recognized was the elder Mage, who she had paper lessons with.
