Young Royal Guard Hermann Schmitt and now former Catholic nun Maria Vischering were blessed by her Holiness Lili. Thanks to this blessing both were in perfect health, they had flawless clear skin, overall healthy features and seemed as if they were barely in their twenties now.
Along with this blessing they were both also given the task of guarding the two golden seeds. This being a task which the two quite enthusiastically accepted. And along with this task Lili ordered the two to figure out a way to create better protective gear and better safety standards for the workers of Germany.
The two might not have been trained to do this, but with Lilis blessing and their fanatical devotion to her, Lili was sure that they would find away. She even gave them some simple ideas and plans from where they could start. Like creating a simple steel helmet with some cushions inside to protect someone's head from hard impacts caused by falling rocks or other things in those dangerous industrial working environments.
But more than anything Lili wanted to do this for the young couple to ensure that they stayed together and had a chance to build something real together. She didn't wish their one night of passion to just end, but grow into something real for Maria's sake especially.
Of course Lili wouldn't have minded staying a bit longer to see this love between the two grow, but sadly she just had to go. Apparently her and Willy had gathered quite a lot of attention recently, her especially. So now under the orders of the Kaiser she was to return to Plön and remain there until further notice.
So after bidding farewell to the newly formed young couple, Lili hopped on to the carriage with Willy and then they headed off to the train station. Along the way their departure was noticed by many people who happily waved to them. Happily waving back to the crowds of people around they then arrived at the train station, hopped on the train and headed back home again.
Once back in Plön Willy went back to continuing his military school life with his two younger brothers Prince Eitel and Prince Albert. While Lili worked on her own projects to make Germany stand the test of time.
Firstly when arriving in Plön she was once more met with the Baumer girls who all acted so humbly before her. Even the little 2 year old Mila Baumer did a small curtsy before her and acted so shyly towards her as well.
Sure it was nice, but it was a bit much. She had tried to tell them all to just relax and act naturally around her. She just wished to give the girls a little break from worrying about the need to do anything for now. They had been on the streets surviving for so long and in her opinion were in need of a period of time where they could just lay around lazily without needing to worry about anything.
But try as she might the girls just seemed incapable of doing this. Each night they hesitated to even come upon the bed with her to sleep and she had to desperately invite them all to do so.
Also Mathilda and Miaa Baumer constantly acted as servants to her. They washed her on the morning, cleaned their clothes, brushed her hair and cleaned the room for her, even though she told them that they didn't need to do so.
Nonetheless they kept saying that it was ok and kept asking her about what else they could do for her. Even little Mila came wobbling to her side offering her some cookies to eat from time to time.
So seeing as the girls were incapable of taking it easy Lili decided to give the girls a task that they could work on. That task simply being for them to educate themselves and become useful to her and all of Germany as well.
More than anything she showed the girls her blueprints to the machines of the future that she had planned on making and set them the task of seeing those blueprints become reality. She even showed them a little drawing of a Mech suit occupied by a single pilot.
Of course to do this she set the girls onto the path of educating themselves on the art of engineering and other related topics. Sure it was a huge task for some orphan girls to take, but luckily they seemed quite motivated to do it.
And as for the second task to see Germany stand the test of time she decided to plant two more golden seeds. Just south of the manor there is a small peninsula surrounded by the magnificent Great Plön Lake. And luckily this small peninsula had a small golf course owned by the royal family and so that's where she placed the two additional seeds.
Thirdly she finally decided to work on creating a light stone. Although with extra money now on hand Lili decided to not just take a regular stone, but a golden mark. The golden Mark being a coin made mostly out of gold to which she then poured her holy magic into.
Much like the human body the coin was also filled with colours of life, although a different type of life energy. This energy was solitary, thick and something that she could convert to her will.
From her core and by the help of God she poured a dense mass of pure white energy into the coin. And slowly but surely the golden and earthly elements within the coin began to then change and become one with the light.
From a simple gold coin it turned to a mix of white and gold. Then as the white energy took hold the coin turned pure white until it then seemed to melt into a sort of white jelly of pure energy within Lilis hands.
And this energy Lili was able to then mold into a perfectly white crystal-like ball with a hard golden core at its center. It was small enough for Lili to wrap her little hand around, it was so beautiful and just perfect. Never had she seen anything quite like it and honestly couldn't quite believe that she managed to create something like it.
Although having created it Lili did feel quite exhausted and her whole body was now covered with sweat, but nonetheless she kept on looking at the stone. There within its center she could see its golden core flashing lightly like a beating heart. With each flash Lili could feel it spread its pure healing light all around making her feel a little bit more at ease.
For within this stone of light Lili had placed the same will that she placed within the golden seeds. So with each flash the stone sought to heal the land and the people of Germany as it was told to do, this including her as well .
The stone was a success, its purpose was set, it held an ever recharging vortex of light within it and Lili in time could pour more of her light into it and make it grow even bigger and stronger. Now Lili just needed to bury it into the ground from where it could make the land fertile and heal all the Germans who walked on that land.
So in the center of the manors backyard, close to the newly constructed outdoor gym and under the eyes of many onlookers Lili proudly buried the stone. And onto the place of rest a small statue of an angel was placed to mark its location.
Then with all three of her tasks for the day done Lili felt a sudden wave of fatigue hit her. A need of laying down came upon her, she felt so tired and she just wanted to sleep now and rest.
She hadn't yet tested out the outdoor gym or managed to teach the others sword fighting and such things yet that day, but sadly she just couldn't do it anymore. Her legs shook, eyes closed and as she was about to fall Willy caught her just as she then fell into a deep sleep.
