The current season was Fall, 3018.

Of course, in space, there was really no way of knowing what season it was. This kind of information was sent to them from Earth, and some janitor guy went and changed the temperature of the dome to mimic the temperature on Earth. The dome they lived on, known as Spirals Ruler, was next to a spiral galaxy. This galaxy wasn't known by Earth at the time, no; but this is space! We have our own rules.

Queen Anastasia Castex, more famously known as the Queen of Space, was the ruler of Spirals Ruler. The young girl, 15, was not yet married; too strong for a King, the kingdom-goers would always say. Anastasia had always been tough, playing in the mud when she was younger and ruling an entire kingdom by herself at 15. Well, not by herself.. But we'll get to that later.

Around 15, maybe even younger, was the general age for a young queen to marry. Anastasia didn't play by the rules though. Sometimes marriage is too complicated to worry about when an entire kingdom depends on you to survive or whatever.

Queen Anastasia's kingdom wasn't really the prettiest for a queen. It was the way she liked it, simple but grand at the same time. Modern and old-fashioned at the same time. It was a really beautiful place; but if any other queen were to walk in, they'd probably snicker and whisper under their breath how anticlimactic the place was. But home is home, and if it makes her happy, who's gonna stop her?

Enough explaining. On with the story.
