The shooting stars were gathered together on the platform waiting for the Hogwarts express to arrive to take them home. They were dressed in presentable attire, as they always were in public, each one looking like a perfect image of a pure blood heir. "I was reading about the Pendragon royal family and it's tradition and came across a piece of information that I think may influence you all," Cassiopeia spokes as the train pulled into the station, "I wish to address it once we are in our compartment."

Together the quintet maneuverer through the train to the last compartment, the same one they had claimed when they first came to Hogwarts, as they took their seats and locked the door Cassiopeia pulled out a couple of ancient worn leather books, placing them in the table that extended from the wall.

"I was reading through these and came across multiple accounts from different sources each discussing the same 'Crown Court' that the Pendragon royal family had. The sources state that this court consists of at least four main advisers and then any other court members the crowned monarch or heir wishes to have. Each member of the court is hand picked by the heir or monarch to work as both their advisers and proxy should they need them." Cassiopeia explained as she delicately opened the books to show the accounts to her siblings.

"This one says that each member of the Crown Court had their own personal room in the Pendragon Castle and if they ever married and had children that they could, if they wished stay living in the palace to raise their children along side the court and heirs to the throne," Eleana pointed to one of the faded pages, "isn't that so sweet." She smiled at her siblings.

"Why are you bringing this up Hyacinth?" Alex asked though there was a knowing look in his eye.

"Well Ally, I wish for you to be my Crown Court if you would have me as your Crown Princess." Cassiopeia smiled at them as she spoke, it was clear she didn't wish to force them into any responsibilities.

"Of course, we would be honoured to serve as your Crown Court." Each of them bowed their heads to her as they agreed.

"Thank you, now in the Court there are four main roles, the Royal Adviser, Royal Guard, the Lady/Lord in Waiting and the Royal Accountant," Cassiopeia said, "if you will, I wish for Jake to be my advisor, Lea my Lady in Waiting, Ally my accountant and Kiki my guard. Of course if you do not lil that position I am more than willing to change it." She waited silently for her siblings opinions.

"I would be more than happy to be your advisor Cynthia, you have my support for now and always." Jake kissed the Pendragon ring on Cassiopeia's finger who smiled cupping his cheek gently.

"I would lay my life down for you a thousand times over, I am honoured to be your guard." Kira also kissed Cassiopeia's had who placed a kiss on her forehead in return.

"You know I would do anything for you, of course I'll be your lady in waiting, I would be offended if you chose anyone else." Eleana joked kissing Cassiopeia's hand as the siblings laughed lightly.

"You know I am more than willing to manage your accounts and any documents you need maintained sister." Alex was the last to kiss Cassiopeia's ring. With that done the rest of the ride went by in a flurry of conversations, jokes and laughter.

"You have a court?" Alphard looked over to the younger girl. "Indeed I do, of course there are my main captains but I have other court members too, they'll be revealed later." Cassiopeia smiled over to the man, she knew he was pad's favourite family member so felt the need to be especially polite to him.

When the crimson train came to a staggering halt the shooting stars made their way off and to the nearest fireplace so that they could apperate back to Emrys Cottage. "It's so nice to be back, it's only been a few months but I missed it greatly." Eleana smiled broadly as she gazed at the familiar home, before reaching into her pocket to pull out a brief case that she placed down before flicking it open to release Fluffy who came leaping out immediately running across the open space.
