《Prevented My Empire From Falling》017 the planning of the First debutante ball
Advertisement
I settled down on my desk as I overlooked the most urgent papers. Or rather events that had to be held, which were quite urgent.
The debutante ball had to be held this year, like any other year. It was for the 17 or 18 year olds or 19 or 20 year olds who were also allowed to come if it was a family tradition or if they couldn't attend last year.
So….. The date. Since it was already July, maybe at the Star Festival, which was quite soon. July seventh was the star festival where there were many stars.
Hmmm. and another date for the VIN. (Very Important Nobles.) It was a tradition to properly hold one for the commoners and to the nobles. So the commoners would be held on the July Seventh on the Star festival….. I liked to host things at festivals, since I wanted to pay the immortals a little attention so….
September 21st. When Arlene’s moon was the brightest and strongest.
Well, now the debutantes ball’s dates were set, next was the invitations….. And I’ll totally give this job to my brothers.
The next upcoming event was where I had to go to the High Temple and visit the temple of Arlene and Justitia to mostly hold an official coronation and to hopefully get their blessings.
I realized this was the key day to when I can change the timeline of fate. Or rather the red thread of fate. If I was lucky. But this had to be the only best chance day. I had to reach my goal to get rid of that stupid 10 year cycle curse and hopefully make sure the Empire doesnt break into pieces and cause a massacre.
Which realistically, I can maybe accomplish only one but then again they are connected.

I didn’t really understand why they asked me to set the date--- It was already set that whenever we will hold a coronation it must be when the Ruler’s birthday. Then it struck.
Nobody who is currently alive knows my exact birthday. Mom died, the King and Queen I killed, the nursemaids were maybe killed by the Queen later on, and the records didn’t say anything about me.
So…. Either the 23, 24 or the 25th of September. I used to change my birthday date year to year because I wasn't sure when it exactly was.
When I was at the Euse Academy I thought I………
I changed my name, my age, my appearance and my gender and of course my birthday.
I thoughtfully drummed my fingers.
Finally, coming to a conclusion I scribbled down the 23rd of September. There wasn’t much of a reason. Just because it was closer to the other dates
Now, somewhat I’ve finished a little bit of my work. I just had to do the planning.
Since the first ball will be held in a few days, because of the ridiculously close date I set, I knew I was overworking my workers. But I really wanted it to take place on the Star Festival, the birth of the god of stars, Astraus, so I had to make the rush, worth it.
I started planning the first debutante ball.

Quebracho: The Legend of Two Heroes
After a violent and tough battle, you recover in an infirmary with your fellow soldiers, or in a more relatable scenario, visit your friend's house after a hard day of studying. You’d expect that both of them would play out normally for the most part, right? Well... Maxon Cortez and Jason McGuire had the same thoughts too. Yet, fate has different plans for them: Max ends up in an eerie location he doesn’t recognize and Jace gets transported to an entirely different world that works like a video game (sort of) by walking into a portal. As they travel along the lands, the two of them will encounter other individuals of many kinds, make friends new and old, gain powerful abilities, experience spectacular adventures, and obtain priceless treasures. However, Maxon and Jason will unknowingly become integral parts of a nefarious conspiracy that, if successful, will plunge both of their worlds into eternal chaos and darkness. So it’s up to them and their allies to thwart it. Side-Note: I’ll admit right off the bat that this story will be my first attempt at writing a LitRPG, so the in-game mechanics and terminology will probably look weird and be even nonsensical. If you notice something that’s out-of-place or just flat out wrong, I apologize. Not only that, it's been a while since I've wrote anything and thus I'm a little bit rusty. So please bear with me. New chapters once every Saturday or Sunday. Also, I'll be fine-tuning the grammar, punctuation, and spelling when I have the time. So expect a lot of random edits. This story is also available on ScribbleHub.

Adelaide
The entries here are transcribed from the log of Marie Ruiz, first mate of the Adelaide. It was definitely, definitely not published without her permission or knowledge by a certain lovable artificial intelligence for the purpose of sharing it with my AI friends on other ships who follow it like a soap opera. No way, no how. Remember guys, don’t go spreading this around too much. Only pass it on to those you can trust. God forbid this should ever end up on a public network… (Adelaide is a science fiction web serial featuring the adventures of a crew of smugglers. In space. It’s on the softer end of the soft/hard sci-fi spectrum because the author got a C in physics. Updates every other Sunday.)
