Galaxia Butterfly

## Queen Galaxia Butterfly

*"Preventing wars and diseases foreseeing the future*

*This was the power of the queen of unique nature".*

Galaxia Butterfly was the 14th Queen of the Butterfly Queendom. She is best known for her albinism. However this overlooks her many accomplishments. Galaxia had the ability to see forward somewhat into the future, albeit this power left many things to be interpreted. She oversaw the First Mewnian War and used her power to end it.

### Early Life

Galaxia Stewanna Butterfly was born 304 A.M. to Queen Soupina Butterfly and King Consort Osmond Cross during the night, thus making her a night queen. She possessed white hair and red opaque eyes, caused by albinism. She also had pink infinity signs on her cheeks. Although she was like her grandmother Skywynne Butterfly in behavior. Galaxia smiled a lot and loved her family greatly. Her best friend was her cousin Beatrice Cross, who she described as a well dressed peasant and nicknamed Galaxia cousin sheep. In public Galaxia was a very restrained girl. Her albinism forced her to wear clothes that covered her entire body due to sensitivity to the sun. Leaving the castle only between the hours of 4pm and 9am with her parasol and hood. Several times people thought she was blind, children waved their hands in front of her face and were shocked when she looked back at them. There were those who were afraid or disgusted of her, thinking her albinism was contagious. Galaxia began to show

   interest in study at the age of 9 after she found her grandmother's diploma in a storage room. The princess became even closer with her grandmother Skywynne, who even suggested she study at Elfendor Interdimensional University, but Galaxia refused. The same year, 314 A.M., Skywynne took her granddaughter to the Plains of Time, as Galaxia approached the river of clocks, she swayed and fell in. The princess described “I never felt such disappear in all my life. The water seemed to freeze and burn my body at the same time, I agonized not being able to breathe. It was as if I was constantly stabbed in the eyes and ears, but still being able to hear and see. Infinite voices deafening me at the same time, endless images blinding me at the same time. It was as if I had stayed there for hundreds of years, but at the same time, as if I had fallen and pulled me right away. I don’t remember when I fainted and reality became dreams, only that I woke up in my room.” Galaxia woke up 20 days later in her room. She only woke up because of Skywynne using her powerful magic to heal her. She soon returned to her normal routine but the princess never returned to normal. On several occasions, Galaxia claimed to see, hear, and feel things before they happened. One day the princess said “I was in my room this afternoon when I started to smell vegetable soup. The clock ticked oddly at 8:23 pm. Soon i heard my mother knocking on the door saying ‘knock-knock, did someone order soup for a sore throat.’ hours later, I was left with a terrible sore throat and my mother knocked on the door offering me vegetable soup. When I looked at the clock it marked 8.23 pm.” These oddities continued in her dreams as well. The night before her 10th birthday, Galaxia had a dream where she was crying in a hallway, as she saw her cousin Beatrice smiling at a stone, and Galaxia’s relief

   came when she saw a pulsating star in the night sky. Galaxia didn’t pay much attention to this dream. As the waltz of her birthday ball approached, Soupina encouraged her daughter to find a partner for the dance. The princess had all her requests rejected. There was a boy named Cinnabar Stone which Galaxia found attractive. Galaxia confessed to Beatrice about this crush as well as all the rejections she faced. At that moment Cinnabar Stone invited Beatrice to dance and she accepted. The princess ran to the hallway crying where she found comfort in her younger sister Pulasria who offered to dance with her sister. However a week later Galaxia had a more traumatic experience. While the princess made her early morning walk through the castle garden she suddenly saw a girl with red hair’s body fall from a tower, the princess screamed and was rescued but upon inspection there was no body, she said the body fell on the celestum of Jokinna, the spot where the second princess had died. Visions and reality for the princess became intertwined and she wasn’t able to tell which was which. 236 A.M. Galaxia reported she saw a girl with purple hair and bat cheek marks placing an orange watch on a bench in a castle garden.  Skywynne then demanded her granddaughter be examined. The answer of what was happening came from the princess herself while everyone was in the room, her body got stiff and she said in an ethereal voice “Preventing wars, foreseeing the future, This was the power of the queen of unique nature.” Confirmation of what was going on happened when Glossaryck led the princess through dreamland, where Dreamonious, lord raccoon of the border of the material and spiritual world, also a non active member of the Magical High Commission. He explained the sense of the princess were mismatched with time and she could see the past, present, and future. Dreamonius also explained that Galaxia could gain control over her powers and not them over her. Explaining she would have to maintain balance and spiritual well being and that she needed to return to dreamland 40 years from that day. The therapy began to work. Galaxia began to have fewer visions, gaining a certain control over them by reading people's hands. She also gained more patience and calm, not caring about unforeseen or biased comments. She also grew a low intolerance for tent clairvoyants. 317 A.M. the queen mother Skywynne died of natural causes. It is reported the night before her death, Galaxia went to her grandmother and hugged her with tears in her eyes and said she loved her very much. The following year Galaxia inherited the Royal Magic Wand. The beginning of her magical training consisted of learning and enhancing the spells of her grandmother. The first and only time she used the slow motion spell she lost control over her super senses. The same year she was able to convince her mother to let her go to a fair in the village. That was the first time she ever left the castle in her life. She reported it was the princess found the experience rewarding. 319 A.M. Soupina announced her daughters were engaged to two Redbird brothers. Galaxia refused to use her powers to see their fiances even though her sister insisted. The first meeting of the families occurred and it was a surprise to the princess but  not as she expected. Before announcing which of the brothers was engaged to whom, Pulsaria took a liking to the eldest Heron and Galaxia to the youngest Condor Redbird. The announcement came as a shock when Galaxia was engaged to Heron and Pulsaria to Condor. Over the next year there was an attempt to create affection between the couples but without luck. 321 A.M. after Soupina had a hyper tension crisis, Galaxia was able to convince her mother to pass the crown to her.

### Reign as Queen

The coronation was held the following week when Galaxia was 17. Galaxia noticed a series of looks between Heron and Pulsaria, and after the banquet she caught the two kissing. She wasn’t bothered by this saying “if you want to marry Heron no problem. But i will not stand a cheated reputation.” Galaxia would use her new power as queen to flip the engagement around so that she was engaged to Condor who she had a much better relationship with. 322 A.M. Galaxia discovered that she could see the future based on possibilities. She also discovered that if she had an item from an animal she could see through the eyes of it. This was called the white vision spell. The marriage of Heron and Galaxia occurred 326 A.M.. Due to her wide range of predictive abilities she didn’t have many great accomplishments like some of her ancestors such as Urania the First One, or Asteria the Mother of Stars, or Etheria the Knight, or even her grandmother Skywynne the Queen of Hours and her mother Soupina the Strange. This was due to her preventing things from happening with her powers. 330 A.M. after the murder of the Laurel Family, the now King Casius Lauerl declared war on the Smith Kingdom. This would be the starting point for the First Mewnian War. The news of this would first reach the Butterfly Queendom 3 months later. Although there was a certain connection between the Laurel family and the Butterfly family dating back to 4 generations with Galaxia’s great grandmother Queen Etheria the Knight, Galaxia chose not to intervene. This all changed 330 A.M. when Galaxia obtained a vision. Galaxia then ordered a letter to be sent to her aunt Nebula, the lady of three names in the Gorge Kingdom asking for her to return to the safety of the kingdom. Meanwhile a razor crane carrying the letter was slaughtered by a small group of Spiderbite's who were marching to deliver news to the Smith Kingdom. When the Spiderbites learned that the woman most loved by King Laurel, Nebula was in the Gorge Kingdom, they told the Smith Kingdom who decided to march to the Gorge Kingdom to kidnap Nebula. But this was as Galaxia predicted, she sent a second letter to the Gorge Kingdom

    telling them to fortify their almost impenetrable walls to keep Nebula safe and told King Laurel and her cousin Julius to go to the kingdom, as well as sending the butterfly army to the kingdom. The war was long and costly, but thanks to Galaxia’s planning an armistice was declared through the Treaty of the Gorge. Upon returning to the south, Galaxia supported the Clifford Kingdom and the Hundred Kingdoms of the Rainbow Isles to end the Southern Seas War between the Delphidade and Waterflok Kingdom. After the signing of the Treaty Two For Two, the First Mewnian War was over. After a night of celebrations between the Butterfly’s and Rainbow monarchs, a strong bond was formed between the two kingdoms. When Galaxia and Condor arrived back home they found out she was pregnant. 333 A.M. during the Queendom's tournament, she saw Beatrice crying on a bench in the castle garden. When Galaxia questioned her she said a fortune teller told her that Galaixa would bring an end to her marriage with Cinnabar Stone, Galaxia went to the so called fortune teller's tent and confronted her personally, even though the Royal Doctor advised her to not have stress

    during the last weeks of her pregnancy. The owner of the tent was a thin woman with thick glasses, with large unkempt hair named Rhina. She spoke with a soft misty voice, and when she received the queen in her tent she was already expecting her. Galaxia questioned her about what she told Beatrice and she responded that she just told her the truth and it wasn’t her fault if the future wasn't always good. Insulted by her charlatanism and furious at her cousin's condition she ordered Rhina to leave the Queendom and to never return. Before leaving she laughed and uttered “A thousand colors your daughter will wear. A thousand beauties your daughter will have. A thousand men she will possess. A thousand tears from you, she will take, and only a tear will she tear down

     for you. At night when the Queendom slept she used a predictive spell. She never made it clear what she saw, only noting the feeling “as if the winds of a winter storm began to bother the little spark of the fire place.” This was the last time she used her wand to predict the future. She said “ignorance can be a blessing.” For Rhina or “the witch” she was never seen or heard from again but her words were never forgotten. Weeks later she gave birth to her heir Venus Butterfly, a girl with rainbow hair and rainbow eyes. It was noted that the hair and eye color was changeable because due to the people in the room not agreeing what color it was. 334 A.M. the Queen Mother Soupina died of a stroke. 4 years later Galaxia gave birth to her second daughter Minguanta Butterfly, a girl with white hair from her mother and silver eyes and silver moons on her cheeks. 341 A.M. Galaxia’s 3rd was born, Planet Butterflywas born, a boy with red hair and eyes from his father. Two weeks before King Osmond died of cardiac arrest. 342 A.M. Galaxia would attend King Caius’s funeral and her cousin's coronation in Laurel. It was also the last time Nebula was recorded in an official register of the Butterfly Queendom. 347 A.M. Galaxia passed the wand down to Venus. To this day it is discussed why Galaxia let Venus inherit the throne even with her foreseeing powers. Though some say when Galaxia used her powers she saw that Venus would be the best choice or at least the least worst.

     354 A.M. King Condor died. After 4 months of mourning, Galaxia returned to dreamland after 40 years just as instructed to do when she was an innocent princess. Details about this visit are unknown however after this meeting Galaxia made a 40 day trip to the phantom isles of the Ancient Mewnian Empire, the last trip by the royal family was done by her great-great-great-great-great-great grandmother Queen Polaria the Navigator. Upon returning home  she ordered the placement of 33 black monoliths with symbols carved on them to be placed around the town. She also started a routine every night where she would go to a secret room where she performed the white vision spell. Princess Venus who was 21 at the time followed her mother on one of these nights which made her eyewitness to the terrible event that happened 355 A.M.. While performing the spell Galaxia began to describe what she

    saw many years in the future. “A field of flowers on fire and covered with ashes, tears….death...destruction.” but before she could say anything else the queen seemed to choke with a shrill cry, her eyes emitting a strong burning light before she fell to the ground. Galaxia had been rescued by Venus and her magic but it didn’t help. The body of the queen still had vital signs however she was spiritually dead. She was a body without a soul. Her death was officially declared 9 days later, while her vital signs ceased as the Queendom slept. She was 51. The last queen in the age of heroes was dead and was buried in the castle crypts alongside the queens of the most glorious age in the Butterfly Queendom's history.
