While most people in the poll voted for the capital to be called Avalon, I feel like that is just soooo overused. I don't think that will be the name used. Instead, the name Victoria will be. It was suggested by FFN user SlytherinQueenLucretia for the suggestion.
PS: instead of making it insanely hard for her to conquer earth, It's gonna be fairly easy for her. I mean, if you think about it, she has a military of 30 million troops. The largest standing army in the world is China with 2 million. Piece of cake. The real action will happen in the Star wars sequel, where I will hopefully get into a lot of lore, both Star Wars and otherwise.
Within the next two days, the only countries that dared to stand up to her was the countries who were in the top ten for people fit for military service, or China, India, Russia, Indonesia, Brazil, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Mexico, North Korea, and Japan. Also in that list were Spain and Italy. The rest let down their arms and merged all of their combined militaries with the Cytherean one. With that, the Cytherean military now had about 150 million troops, and plenty of tanks, ships, planes, and guns. And plenty of manpower.
The Russians, smart warlords that they are, realized the threat to their country. Luckily for them, they had nukes. While they didn't want widespread destruction, it seemed to be the only way to stop this conqueror of worlds. So, in retaliation, they nuked. They nuked Victoria, the great Capital of the Cytherean Empire. However, the Russians didn't think about one not really small thing. Magic. When the nuke started flying towards the great city, which had rang it's bomb shelter alarms, just in case. They weren't necessary.
The most dangerous warhead in history simply bounced off. You see, all of the magicals that lived in the area helped in this amazing creation. They all put their magic together and cast millions of wide spreading protegos that surrounded the entire city and even it's outskirts. The other cool feature about this near impenetrable shield was that if something hit it that wasn't authorized, it was set right back to where it came from. This nuke had been launched straight from Moscow. T'was a shame, really. Apparently Moscow was a beautiful city.
Before the rebound, the Cytherean government had announced to the citizens that if any of them had family or friends currently in Moscow, to call them immediately and go to the nearest portkey location and portkey here. They slowed down the nuke just enough so most citizens could portkey out. Sadly, most were killed in the blast, although all children had gotten out. Any officials living their were killed by the coming explosion.
Seventeen ministry heads had died on that day, or half of Russian chain of command. This left the Minister of Education as president of the collapsing nation who's capital had just been nuked. (please don't flame if I got the chain of command wrong, got it from going down on the Wikipedia list of Russian Ministers. Tell me and if it's a big mistake I'll fix it).
That being said, a good portion of the Russian Population had either been killed in the blast or escaped to Cytherea, leaving the government and infrastructure their completely crippled. By the end of the next day, Russia laid down it's arms and surrendered to the Cytherean military who's planes had flown in the next day. The Cytherean flag now flew in place of all Russian ones.
The Cytherean flag was a rectangular shaped flag. It had two light blue lines that crossed in the center diagonally. The bottom left of the flag was colored red, whereas the top right was orange. In the center of it all, a white dove in flight. Violet had designed it knowing that she owed all her success to Aphrodite. If not for her Grandmother, she would be an abused and sheltered child, primed to be manipulated and used by Albus Dumbledore and the Weasleys.
That being said, the only countries that would be left standing in this beautiful new world were the historically neutral ones that Violet had allowed neutrality for, or Sweden, Switzerland and San Marino. (If anyone knows of any other VERY neutral countries that have been for at least 200 years please tell me).
Since she already had the US and most of the continent, she decided to go after Mexico and Brazil next. They both had 60 million troops altogether, having enlisted all able bodied people into service. It was still an easy fight. A couple of bombs dropped on Mexico City and Brasilia and that was over.
So now the only countries left were China, North Korea, Bangladesh, Pakistan, China, Indonesia, and Japan.
Japan tried the same tactic, but this time at New York, hoping that it didn't have the field yet. They were right, but the Cytherean magicals simply cast an "Evanesco" charm on the nuke, leaving the Japanese flabbergasted as to where their nuke had disappeared to.
They weren't pleased with the outcome. Since Japan didn't have a standing military that wasn't under America's control, (please correct me if that's wrong) when the American forces attacked, it was total decimation. The Japanese laid down their arms shortly after the American attack from within on their capital.
China was Violet's most difficult conquest as of yet. They had the largest standing military, totaling two million troops. For this one, Violet decided to invade China from the left, sweeping before taking Beijing. This was unlike the rest of the battles, however, and it took about a week and the Cytherean army lost about ten million troops. She had used only troops from places she had conquered to launch this assault.
India went the same way as China, although they only lost three million troops. The rest of the countries were dealt with quickly via a couple of large bombs to their capital.
There was a memorial service for all of the fallen troops. Violet set up Cytherean Military Graveyards in every country that had fallen soldiers. She went to every memorial, and gods was she tired by the end.
Finally, she was back home. At Hogwarts, which was now her palace. She had a mapmaker update the new world map, making it so that the entire world except for Sweden, Switzerland, and San Marino was the same color, emblazoned with the title: The Great Cytherean Empire with it's capitol in what was formerly known as Great Britain, Victoria City.
AN: even though that was INSANELY short, (I'm very sorry)I think that's a great ending point.
PS: in my opinion, this could END the first book. She's conquered everything, nothing stands in her way. It was meant for it to be really easy for her to conquer Earth, because she just has insane numbers and powers. That's why the sequel will (hopefully) have long chapters, world building, and action galore. I do have a couple of things that could easily fit in this book or the next, depending on whether or not y'all think this is a good stop point for this book. No matter what you chose, I'm going to give you a little teaser for the next series, which will be a Star Wars crossover, as said above. Anyways, enjoy!
SPOILERS FOR BOOK TWO START HERE!
Violet was sleeping peacefully in her Royal bed when someone she thought she would never see again came into her dream, just like that night all those years ago.
"Grandmother?" she asked when she saw the beautiful woman appear in front of her. The only woman more beautiful than her, according to everyone.
"Hello, sweetie. My have you grown! When we last saw each other you were a mere baby, tiny with those pudgy little hands and feet, at least compared to you now" Aphrodite smiled down upon her. Literally, not figuratively.
"You have a greater destiny, Violet, yes, greater than what you have already accomplished. You have done what no one else has ever done before. But there is a greater world out there, one that earth is unaware of entirely. There is an entire galaxy out there, suffering under a corrupt regime, one that has existed for centuries. They're people are sick and tired of endless war, and only you can finally bring peace."
Violet's mind was reeling. She just basically said that there was a galaxy of aliens out there that they had no idea about. "so you're telling me that there are ALIENS? Worlds far, far away that we have no idea about? Species that have yet to be discovered?" her mind was going through the possibilities at lightspeed.
Aphrodite nodded her head, confirming all of her suspicions. "holy shit" she said, gob smacked. "and it is my destiny to conquer and rectify it?" Aphrodite nodded her confirmation again. "How are we even supposed to get there?" she asked.
"there is an ancient race that is long believed extinct. It is not. Not only do relics of their race remain, but so do their people. You must locate one such artifact. Feel out with your magic, expand your senses. Search for something dark, darker than you have ever felt before."
She did as she was told, expanding her magic to reach far and wide. And then she felt it. To picture what it felt like, imagine a shiver up your spine. Then imagine something 100 times worse. It was coming from almost as far south as you could get, Australia. Specifically, one of it's gold mines. "I feel it! Oh god, the POWER, it's intoxicating! What is it?" she asked excitedly.
"It is what they call a Sith Holocron. Specifically Darth Bane's, the founder of the current Sith. Alongside it is also his Apprentice's, Darth Zannah. They were hid side by side in the mines by Darth Zannah, as a token to Darth Bane's mining past. One of the first alleged UFO sightings was, in fact, Zannah's ship. You must go to that mine and learn the way of the Sith, in order to rule the galaxy. It will be a hard journey, but I have full confidence that you can do it."
Violet stood from her cross-legged position, and bowed her head to her grandmother. "thank you, Grandmother. I will do what my destiny has willed me to do." Then she woke up sweating. She walked with a purpose, got dressed, and went to speak with her head admiral to tell him of her extended absence for who knows how long.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Star Wars.
AN: what do you guys think? Like I said before, we have two options from here on out. I do have content that I could write in this book, but it would fit equally well in the sequel. So, I'll leave it up to y'all.
Option 1: end book one now. start writing the sequel and post it on the sequel on my story.
Option 2: continue book one. There might be some rebellions, remember Dumbledore is still alive, albeit in Azkaban.
Option 3: end part one, but continue Star Wars part on this story, instead of using separate story.
