"What do you mean that the people of Mewni will be very poor because of Helia?" Marco asked.
"We'll now move to the 17th queen of Mewni," Moon pointed the next queen's tapestry. "Celestia, the Queen of Winter!"
In this tapestry, Amid the snow, a blue-eyed woman with blue snowflakes on her cheeks, wearing a light blue dress and a white fur coat. Her hand wearing pink gloves holds a golden bell.
Celestia's pedestal rose up and glowed.
Celestia, the Queen of Winter
"One wrong spell,
brought an endless snow
and the queen's merry heart
froze with guilt and sorrow"Marco got curious, "Spell gone wrong, huh? What kind of spell? What did Celestia do?"
Marco started the story, "You see, Marco, Celestia was born at midnight of the winter solstice. This explains her cheekmarks are snowflakes. She has a happy life and always making jokes. During the 2nd Mewnian War, Celestia was kept inside the castle walls. But, one day, he sneaked out to meet a friend, which putting herself and her friend in danger by a group of mercenaries Septarians. They were saved by Helia and reduced the septarians into ashes."
"I remember that part. Once Helia did that, people are quite afraid of her," Marco snickered.
"Yes, yes. It was," The queen chuckled, "Anyway, When Celestia turned 14 and inherited the wand, she wanted to be like her mother; incredible and powerful. Celestia had a great desire and eagerness to learn and create, which was excellent. However, Celestia had some difficulty in understanding more complex things, which made her spell performances somewhat difficult, something similar that had happened during her High Mewnian classes, which had resulted to the princess to fluency only in Low Mewnian language. Celestia already showed a good control in magic, even discovering that the ring of her bell worked as a counter-spell. When her mother died, Celestia cried and the princess's tears, which had created a thin layer of ice and frozen her pillow."
"It's like she has ice and snow power, even without her wand." The human boy said.
"She was born in winter and always like the cold. That's who she is." Queen Moon replied. "When Celestia became queen and married to Jasper Stone from the stone house, Celestia had three weeks of peace and rest, only to find trouble and more trouble. Letters from across the continent and kingdoms beyond the eastern and western seas began to reach the Butterfly Kingdom. The contents of all of them were the same: the golden and silver fruits given by Helia to the monarchs in the Great Council had faded to ashes, possibly because of her death. Most kingdoms were using the fruits as a means to re-stabilize their postwar economy, and there were still those who just felt cheated. Celestia agreed to compensate for the monetary losses that the kingdoms had, which resulted in a debt of 5 million golden suns... for each kingdom."
"5 MILLION EACH KINGDOM?! That's too much!"
"I know. That's why Celestia had faith that her plan would work, investing in accelerating planting and exporting corn. However, the crown could only pay 2% of its debt. It was then, after studying and realizing that the kingdom produced corn three times faster in the summer season, Celestia had her 'great' idea: mess with the weather."
