The City has been lit up for the Star Festival with banners and twinkling decorations strewn off the windowsills of shop fronts and windows. The gardeners at one particular park have put their heart and soul into creating a fairy's paradise: Fairy lights have been carefully dangled from trees to make strings of stars, little beaded jewels have been hidden among the hedges, and even the old cobwebs have been sprayed with just a touch of glitter. The park is open to everyone and the citizens of Destiny City have been invited to respectfully explore the hidden wonders that have been placed throughout. The park is magical enough on its own but there have also been reports of a strange, ethereal and shimmering stranger in the park. The glimmer of a beautiful costumed figure fluttering through the park has been passed around as rumor, and no matter what anyone claims to see, no one can take a picture of it. As if simply seeing some magical figure isn’t mysterious enough, there are also reports of mischief and small pranks being played at the same time this figure seems to appear.
Ciel pulled up on her motorcycle in a parking lot near a particular park of Destiny City. This park held a beautiful fairy garden if what Ciel heard was true. The whole of Destiny City was covered in beautiful lights at this time of the year but from what she heard this pace was special, the gardeners of this particular park had really gone all out to make the park a special place for the Star festival. Ciel, who is a lover of fairy tales, beautiful gardens, and entrancing lights, couldn't possibly stay away from such a place. So on her day off she decided to drive out to explore this fairy paradise.
Ciel was not disappointed with what she found in the park. Fairy lights like strands of stars were hung from tree to tree. She could see the twinkle of little beads and jewels from the bushes. Even the spider webs seemed to sparkle as if they were covered in glitter. It was a radiant slice of natural beauty combined with modern lighting. In a way it reminded Hyperborea of the sort of beauty she would find in a wonder, perhaps an earth wonder. She could definitely believe this place was filled with magic if she didn't know better.
She marveled at all the sights of the park as she made her way through the park. It was thrilling, to say the least. Ciel hoped a lot of people visited the park, after all the gardeners deserved a ton of attention for all their hard work. She wondered if any of the gardeners did private work, she would love to get the people behind this wonderful place to liven up her mansion grounds. If nothing else maybe she could give a few ideas from here to her current gardener.
As she was thinking about this something caught her eye. She caught a glimpse of some radiant figure in the distance. The mysterious costumed figure didn't seem like they were a part of the park display, no if Ciel were to put money on it she was certain this stranger was magical. Perhaps they were there to view the pretty displays as well or perhaps they were drawn here for a different reason. Ciel didn't like it.
She decided to try and find the figure, if they were a senshi or knight then she wanted to learn what they were doing here. It was possible they were just out on patrol but something in Ciel's gut told her there was more to the story than that. As she went to walk forward she found herself unable to move her leg forward causing her to face plant into the soft grass. It didn't hurt but it was embarrassing. The young lady looked down to find that somehow her shoes had gotten tied together. Grumbling she untied and re-tied them correctly, there was indeed some kind of mischievous magic going on here and the young woman was not a fan of being the butt of it's jokes.
