The big gathering of beings was broken up into smaller meet and greets. Each representative was given a chance to sit down and talk to Lauren and her men. The elementals were first. Earth and Metal, Water and Flow, Wind and Thunder, Fire and Lightning, Ice, Force, Time, Flora and Fauna, Shadow, Light and Moon. There were so many different forms: Fae, Fairies, Undines, Gnomes, Sylphs, and Salamanders. The ethereal and akasha floated around and rested on Lauren and her men's shoulders and heads. They weren't very keen on being near Cristus at first.
This was when I officially got to meet Edmon and Demeartal's parents. "Hello, Keeper. It is good to finally meet you. We are Elton and Astra, King and Queen of the Fairies. We are also Edmon's parents. It has been a privilege to have our son be your guardian. You were such a beautiful baby." King Elton said.
"Thank you. He is a wonderful help. Edmon will be in charge of the Guardian program along with Demeatral. I wouldn't be where I am without the two of them." Lauren replied.
"Well, I guess they are a good fit. It's good that they are mates. I hope you will come to the wedding." Queen Astra said.
"Definitely. I am going to be the Matron of honor, I was very happy that they were able to find each other because of me." Lauren said with a smile.
"Well, let's talk about Elementals. We are the leadership for the elementals in most realms. Of course, there is royalty in each group of elementals, as with Demeatral's parents. We became the leaders when all of the royals got together and held an election. There are so many of us, it became a problem for all of us to travel to different meeting places. Especiallywhen the witch was around. We thank you for solving that problem. There are 16 elements and 6 types of creatures that are considered as elementals. They are considered elementals because they are the source of the magical powers. Within each of the types there are "dark and "light forms and seasonal forms. We are almost all here now and we fill one side of your stadium. So, you can understand this logistical nightmare. We solved the problem by electing a leader."
"That makes a lot of sense. I am glad to have a better understanding."
"The Elemental Counsel has decided to give you a team of Elementals to aid you with you guardians. You can appoint them as guardians, partners or whatever you choose. We feel there might be a need for more of us to be around you for a while. We heard about the Trow and want to make sure there is a strong presence of protection so we are sure to catch these problems. I didn't mention it earlier, but until you say otherwise, we are the policing force of the realms."
"That is probably because you can get around without people seeing you. I understand. I don't think it's a problem, but as for all administration changes, it won't harm to have Edmon, Demeatral and their team conduct site inspections. That way, I will know that things are running the way I want them to, the sites can be upgraded, and there can be a changing of the guard if it is desired."
"That will be acceptable. Well, you have a line of poeple wanting to speak to you, so, we will take our leave."
"Ok. It was nice to meet you and see you at the wedding."
Next up was Demeatral's parents. "Oh my, look at you." Demeatral's mom, Clare, gathered Lauren into a hug. "Thank you for making my girl so powerful. When it was revealed that it was the future keeper that somehow got attached to my daughter, I was so happy. Have you freed all of your elemental powers and magic?" The questions didn't end there.
"It's nice to meet you too. I see why Demeatral is such a good help to me. She took after her mother." Lauren said.
"Calm down, my love. The keeper can't talk about her personal life now. She has several more people to talk to. As for our part in the Elemental order, we are the presiding Leaders of the counsel. The counsel is a group of twelve elementals that gets the overall information and spreads it to all the other groups. I heard you say you were going to conduct site inspections and everyone we have talked to can't wait. They have seen the way you upgraded your keep and town and are ready for the changes. It has been a while since we have had an upgrade." Demeatral's dad, Martin said. "now , we are going to go on and talk to you later."
"Ok. Talk soon." Lauren replied as she was hugged again by Clare.
The ethereal and akasha encircled Lauren and spoke to her telepathically. "We are always around and can tell you if there is an imbalance in a realm. We can sense that you have the amplitude for all of the elements. Over the next few weeks, we will send you companions and your children companions. If your men wish to have companions, they may have one as well. Your companions will always be with you as a protector. I know you are very protected, but one more source can't hurt."
"Thank you." Lauren replied and then she felt them leave.
Lauren sat in the gym for the entire day and spoke to anyone that wanted to talk to her. Carlton, MaGayla, and their teams wrote down concerns and requests. At the end of the day, all the guests were gathered and seated in the stadium where Lauren made a short speech and answered a few questions. When the night was finally over, she went home with her family to rest.
