Hello everyone. Sorry for the delay, but I wanted some more time to set things up. First allow me to explain. I am close to the first upload of the Fates of S.T.E.A.M. but I also have other story ideas to put up. This is one of them. On Wednesday I will upload the first chapter of the next, then two days after that, the first chapter of the next, and final two days after that we will have the first chapter of the Fates story. This first one is a sequel of the Plegian Prince. I hope everyone who read that story will enjoy these snippets just as much. Enjoy! Fire Emblem is property of Nintendo, I own none of it. (Oh, and if anyone's wondering why I changed my user name...I just felt like it)
It had been only a few months since the end of the war. Robin, as Plegia's new king had been busy mending his wounded country. They still had plenty of gold, but food and water had been limited. Fortunately, Chrom kept true to his word and had been sending them supplies to keep them going.
Robin looked down from the balcony to see Riam-or Empriam as he now called himself-training the troops.
"He always was a great teacher."
Looking behind him, Robin saw Lucina. She wore her typical cloths that Rika sew back together for her after they were ripped by Aversa's men. Only she no longer needed the armor it usually came with.
Robin still wore the Grandmaster armor. Suiglez told him it looked more regal to wear in front of his people. Lucina, even without armor had her cape and tiara.
"I know. He's his father's son after all."
The new queen walked over to him and wrapped one arm around his shoulder and put her other hand on his chest.
"How are you holding up?"
"As you know, my new responsibilities keep me busy. But it's going better than expected."
"Good. But remember, I'm always here for you. It's a queen's duty to be there for her king."
Robin lightly stroked his wife's long blue hair.
"It must be strange for you. Becoming queen of Plegia of all places."
"It does seem odd." Lucina admitted. "The first time I was here, I was a prisoner. Then after the war I was just an ordinary girl. Then two years later, I was a slave. Who would have thought that someone like me would be queen? Although it does sound like something from one of mother's romantic stories."
Robin chuckled as he pulled Lucina closer and looked into the sunset.
"Beautiful, isn't it?"
"Yes. I didn't see this often in the future. It puts me at ease to see the sun is still there."
"Don't worry about that future anymore." Robin said. "From now on we build our own future. As a family."
"Of course." Lucina replied, leaning into Robin. "Speaking of family, how is Morgan doing?"
"Still in the library studying hard. She's determined to become a master tactician."
"Like father like daughter." Lucina said with a giggle.
"Indeed. Tell me something though. What is it that you want in your new future?"
Lucina thought about it for a moment.
"I've spent so long focusing on winning our future. I never considered what to do once it was won…For one thing…It would be nice to visit mother and father every now and then."
"Indeed. I'd like to see Mustafa and Rika too."
"I also would love to learn more of this country I govern along side you now. Even after two years here before the war in Valm I feel I have much to learn. If I'm going to support these people as queen I need to know more about them and their way of life. Fashion in particular, I know I'll need help with."
Robin nearly shuddered. He heard from Sumia and Rika about Lucina's peculiar fashion sense. He certainly didn't want the people to see his wife and their queen walking around in the bunny suit.
"I see…anything else?"
Lucina cuddled closer to Robin.
"I want to be with you. You and Morgan."
Robin smiled as he kissed her forehead.
"Of course, Lucina. I will do my best to be a true husband to you, father to our child and king to our people."
The two of them looked into the sunset. Robin knew it would be a long tough road ahead of him. But he would do his best.
As the Plegian king.
Sorry if this was too short, but it's just the setup for this. This story will be a collection of one shots that I will upload whenever I get a idea and the time to write it. I hope you all enjoy what comes from this and the other upcoming stories. Until then thank you all for reading, leave a review if you can and take care.
