“Rise and shine, Celestia! You have a lot to do today!” Adelaide said as she opened the window.
Sunlight filled the room, making it bright and warm. Celestia stretched her body and let out a small sigh. After days of sleeping beside the road or in the forest, the soft bed felt like the best thing ever.

“It’s time for you to get up, wash, and eat breakfast,” Adelaide said with a smile. “We have a lot to do,” she added.
Celestia laughed a little and sat up.
“Yes, Aunt,” she said.

“Good morning,” he said as he stood straight.
