Celestia was silently fuming inside her own head as she listened to the nobles complaining “That filly attacked Prince Blueblood as well as murdered a whole bunch of ponies, she should be tossed in the dungeon.”

Another noble frowned “She should be banished from Equestria, we don’t tolerate murderers here.”

Celestia frowned “First those ponies were cultists that have been causing problems all over Equestria, now they are all wanted criminals marked for death. They were willing to wipe out a town, if we let them grow now they could end up taking out a city. Second Prince Blueblood had been almost assassinated so many times that I have an automatic pardon on any attempts as long as they are not successful, I have enough evidence to arrest half of Canterlot for attempted murder. I will be speaking to his father, this had gone to far. As for my student, she is given an exemption for protecting Equestria’s interests, now if you’ll all excuse me I have to speak to some ponies.”

Celestia groaned as she trotted out of the meeting room, Storm Blade frowned “That bad huh?”

Celestia whispered into his ear “They are a bunch of useless idiots, I only keep them around for respect to their ancestors” she then asked “Do you mind accompanying me to the noble house of Platinum, I have to discuss something with Prince Blueblood’s father?”

Storm Blade bowed “It would be an honour.” Celestia’s horn glowed and with a flash of light the pair were standing outside a massive tall mansion gold banners with platinum borders surrounded the walls, Celestia stumbled slightly after the teleportation, Storm Blade rushed to her side “Are you alright?”

Celestia nodded “Urghh I’m fine” she grieved internally (It’s getting worse.)

Storm Blade nodded “If you have any trouble, just ask and I’ll be there.”

Celestia smiled as the pair began to trot towards the mansion “Thank you.”

Storm Blade smiled “Your welcome Princess.” Strom Blade’s horn glowed as he banged a gold handle on the door.

The door was opened by a grey pony with a white mane and wine glass cutie mark, he bowed Princess Celestia “Lord Charter Platinum is ready for you.”

The pair entered the castle as the butler escorted them through the platinum hallways filled with painting of various family members before entering a golden dining room. Lord Charter Platinum was sitting in his golden chair drinking wine out of a golden chalice, he forced a smile “May I inquire as to why you are here Princess?”

Celestia frowned “I’m here to talk about Prince Blueblood, my nephew and your son.”

Charter sighed “What has he done now!”

Celestia scowled darkly shocking both Storm Blade as well as Charter “My student almost murdered him for bullying her friends.” she then mumbled “Some part of me wishes she succeeded.” Celestia shook her head “That’s not the point, the point is I need him to learn some manners so I’m sending him out to the Badlands to fight and learn something about honour.”

Storm Blade raised an eyebrow as Charter sighed “2 years ago I would have argued with you Princess but with the shear amount of death threats I suggest a few years up there would be good for him to straighten out.”

Celestia nodded “I’m glad you agree, this has been the fastest agreement I’ve had in years. I was expecting to have to drag this out for hours so a toast to success of this little meeting of ours.”

Charter chuckled “Of course Princess.” he taps a bell in which a waiter emerges with a smile, he smiles “Pour a glass of wine for the Princess and the Captain of the Guard.” The butler returns a few minutes later with the wine.

Storm Blade frowns “Are you sure I should be drinking?”

Celestia smiled “You amongst my family, you have nothing to fear.”

He nodded “Very well Princess.” The trio toasted to their success before returning to their daily duties.
