A door creaked open. Celeste entered her home, returning from meeting with a certain someone. She smiled at the thought of it, and climbed the intricate staircase. Once on the second floor, she emerged onto the balcony. From there, she could see all of her home, Psychic Valley. It was a large chunk of grassy, flat land, with the exception of the valley itself. Her home was a part of The Lunar Lands alliance. Their enemies were The Solar Lands, of course. Each half of Solunaria worshipped either Solgaleo or Lunala, the two legendaries. Celeste remembered reading about a third legendary, but she was sure that was only a legend itself.
She turned around and looked at the lavender-tinted sliding glass door and saw her reflection, and it was a beautiful one. Celeste was an Espeon that had white fur, amber eyes that had a hint of gold, and a fuchsia gem upon her forehead.
After a moment, she turned towards her telescope. The white marble it was made of was decorated with carvings of stars and gems, which Celeste had done herself. Every night, she went onto the balcony. Every night, she observed the wide expanse of space through her beloved telescope. She peered through it, not hesitating to begin doing one of her favorite activities. Celeste carefully observed the position of the stars. She knew where they belonged, but tonight, something was off. They had somehow… moved, as it appeared.
The Espeon rushed back inside, through the hallway, and to her room. She quickly glanced over the bookshelf that held books that were about astronomy and even adventure novels. But the one she was looking for was about the lore of her homeland, Solunaria. She grabbed it off the shelf and dashed back to the balcony.
Celeste looked through the telescope once more to make sure that she had been correct, and as always, she was. She then opened the book to a chapter about omens and predictions. The information she was looking for was about the position of the stars. She turned to the page that would answer her questions, and it read:
The position of the stars is important in the art of reading omens and signs. But in relation to the legends of Solunaria, it is even more crucial to know about them. For, every century, the stars will align themselves in a particular way that signals the near return of Solgaleo and Lunala. This is called an Omen of the Stars, and a select few are observant enough to notice if it is happening. You can see the rare celestial pattern in the picture below.
She studied the illustration that was shown. Celeste glanced from the picture and back to the telescope until she was absolutely certain. The stars were in the exact same area as the picture.
It was unmistakable. Celeste had seen an Omen of the Stars, which meant that Solgaleo and Lunala were coming soon.
