Maria-sama ga Miteru
Queen of the Roses
Lillian, a small but prosperous nation, though far from the capital there was still famines. Knowing this, the Queen of Lillian sent out her Royal Knights to make sure those who rule over the provinces that make up the nation itself know of their people's situation and help out as much as they could. Her Royal Knights trained on the Yamayuri Mountain, though name could be deceiving as there are no lilies but hardships. The Royal Knights formed the House of Roses under the order of the Queen, though some believed that the knights were the true source of power and the Queen is nothing but a mere puppet that the knights used on the people.
To the people in the capital, the Knights represent laws and also enforcer of those laws. They are all popular amongst the people, as they kept Lillian in peace and harmony since the start of the nation centuries ago. There's one odd thing about the knights, they are all women and they each wore their armors with a rose crest crafted onto it as a form of recognition by the color of the crested rose on their breastplate. They are Red, Yellow, and White; among them, the Red Rose ruled over the other two houses with great leadership skills as well as war tactics.
The Red and Yellow Roses set out on their journey to aid the nation's people, while the White Roses family stayed behind as the Queen's guards. Each disguised as traveling commoners, they set out to bring justice to the people per the Queen's order. Leaving the capital behind, the four knights traveled east to the desert.
What lies for them beyond the grassland? It is something no one could foresaw, and maybe if Lady Luck was with them. Just maybe…
A/N: I ended the other one because my interest in it died, which I usually ended the story when that started to happen or it will never be finish(ed). I apologize if it looked rush, but it isn't rushed (actually took me a week to wrapped that chapter up). As for the blowing Sachiko away but Yumi didn't know she did it, it's because her pregnancy give her a bout of terrible mood-swing/tantrum-ish.
Side notes: 1. I'm lazy to come up with a name for the Kingdom, hence I leave it at Lillian. 2. Yamayuri mean Lily Mountain/Mountain Lily, but I like it stick together, so now its mountain lily mountain. 3. The rose crest is engraved on their breastplate, right on their heart (those heavy mail plates). 4. I'm hoping to get this going and finished before my broken mind lost its interest.
Banzai!
