"Princess Garnet? Are you awake yet? It's breakfast time," a castle servant asked as she stood besides the princess's bed.
"Yes, thank you. Tell mama I will be down stairs in a moment." Garnet said as she sat up in her bed, rubbed her eyes, and yawned.
A moment later, Princess Garnet walked down the stairs in a beautiful gown. "Morning, mama. I can't wait until later on this evening." Garnet said as she sat down in a large wooden chair with red cushion.
"Neither can I, darling. Hurry up and eat your breakfast. You're going to need all of your strength this fine day." Queen Brahne replied as she looked out the window.
Later on that day, after Princess Garnet's lessons with Dr. Tot, Adelbert Steiner, Captain of the Knight of Pluto, walked her back to her chamber. "You wait here until it is time. Do you need anything, Princess?" Steiner asked as he was in the doorway.
"Oh, no thank you, Captain Steiner. But, I do have a question. Will it hurt?" Garnet asked.
"I don't see why it would. Why would your mother do such a thing as to hurt you in anyway? Also, General Beatrix and I will be there, for you protection." Steiner said as he left and shut the door.
"I'm so nervous. I really don't want to know, but I do. How will this effect my life?" Garnet said as she sat down on her bed without making a sound.
Later that evening
"Princess Garnet? It is time," said a muffled voice behind the door. Then, a soft knocking sound filled the room. "Princess?" a woman asked as she walked in very quietly.
"Huh? Oh, hello, Beatrix. What time is it?" Princess Garnet asked as she sat up in her bed after taking her nap.
"That doesn't matter. The time has come. Are you ready?" Beatrix asked.
"Yes. Yes, I think I am ready." Garnet replied.
When Princess Garnet and Beatrix reached the Queen's bed chamber, they saw Captain Steiner and Queen Brahne waiting. They also saw Dr. Tot, who was to perform the event.
"Please, Princess. Lay down here." Dr. Tot instructed her. After he said that, she laid down on a table. "I will have to put you to sleep, okay Princess?"
"Okay, Dr. Tot," the princess replied. She felt something hold her hand, and saw it was her mother. "Mama, will I be okay?" she asked.
"Yes, you will, darling. I'll be right here." Queen Brahne said as she rubbed Garnet's hand. She suddenly felt her eyelids grow heavy, and soon fell asleep.
The next day
"W-What happened?" Princess Garnet asked herself as she rubbed her head and sat up in her bed.
"Princess. Good morning. The Queen wants to talk to you downstairs. Then you may have breakfast." Beatrix said from the doorway.
"Thank you, Beatrix." The princess replied as she got out of her bed and went downstairs.
"Mama? You wanted to talk to me?" Princess Garnet asked as she quietly sat down at the large table in the dinning room.
"Garnet darling, there is something about you that may hurt you for the rest of your life. Do you wish to hear this?" Queen Brahne asked as she folded her arms across the table.
"I suppose." Princess Garnet replied.
"Well, last night, you were still sleeping, so we had to tell you this morning. It turns out that you are a Summoner." Queen Brahne said as she looked at her daughter's face.
"A-A what? A summoner? Does that mean?" Princess Garnet said as she was trying to figure out what a summoner was.
"Yes. You can use Summoning powers to summon powerful beasts. Some are used for good, and some are used for evil." Queen Brahne said.
"But, I-I don't know if I can. Mama, I'm scared." Princess Garnet said as she jumped out of her chair and ran toward her mother.
"I know darling. I know..." Queen Brahne said as she stroked Garnet's hair.
