Of sunkissed hair and moonlit eyes

Dusk

The people were a flurry with excitement, and the stars gleamed a thousand times brighter. Everything was decorated in glistening silvers and smokey blues. "What do you think she'll be like?" '" is she as beautiful as the creator says?" I wonder if she will lead is to victory against the day?!" There were so many voices raised at once, that the people almost did t notice the bright ball of light quickly ascending towards the ground. The people gasped in awe as the light pulsed and then faded to reveal....a young girl?! She looked no more than eight with light ivory skin and a splash of freckles across her fairy like nose. Her hair was cut in a pixie fashion, and it was a deep ash color; soft grayish blonde. She was truly as radiant as the night sky in a mountain valley, but her most striking feature, was her eyes. They shown in the same glossy blue as the banners hanging from the buildings, and the lamp posts. She stood up and dusted off her black dress; a dress that shined like the night sky it's self, and glanced around at the people that gaped back at her. And then chaos erupted. Everyone was in a panic. "Why did the creator send a young girl? This is ridiculous he's mocking us, daytime has always had his favor! What do we do with her?" And then a voice. A soft tinkling voice calmed the masses of disgruntled people. "I know I'm young. And I know you think I am incapable of ruling, but your creator has sent me for a reason. He sent me to make sure peace and not war ensued amongst the peoples of the night and the day. I swear to you, that I am your lunar Queen, and I can promise that I will guide you with wisdom and kindness as the creator promised you, thousands of years ago. On my honor I am your queen; queen Celine." Everyone was awestruck by their young ruler. It was as though someone had replaced her soul with one of an ancient master. No one spoke out against her, they were all to enthralled by her and her wise words. It was a boy, no older than three who broke the heavy silence. "Hail queen Celine!" His voice hung for a second alone, and small. That is until the thousands of voices rose as one and gave a mighty "hail queen Celine!" The young queen laughed with joy as the people acknowledged her, and one of her maidens, the virgin moon Callisto, took her by the hand and led her to the radiant palace of crystal, where she was set to rule for all of eternity.
