Rosalina stood before the train as it departed, a sigh on her lips as she clutched her Lumas close to her, wand in hand and Polari floating right beside her. All of her children waiting back at the Comet Observatory, Mario waiting for her to fly the ship to the Center of the Universe, Peach waiting to be rescued, all of this already weighed heavily on her mind but not a sign of it showed on her face and she made sure not to squeeze her children in any more of a panic.
Polari knew her well though and he floated just a bit closer to her to wordlessly tell her that it would be alright. They had faced greater challenges than this before. She would see them through it.
“Mama? Where are we?” Of the two Lumas in her arms, the blue one spoke. That was what was important now. Finding out where they were and finding a way home. Her heels clicked as she turned, glancing around the train station for a hint and spotting the poster.
“Ruby City, it says.” Her voice was soft, carrying little of the emotion she felt and there was a hint of power behind it, betraying that she wasn’t a regular human girl. “I don’t recall any galaxies having such a name. Polari?”
But the black Luma didn’t have any better an answer. Rosalina knew far more than he did, she knew everything they would ever need to know about the cosmos as its protector. With a sigh, she released the Lumas so they could float along beside her and stepped toward the entrance of the station, catching the watch as she did so.
“Hm? A watch?” She knelt down, a pale hand plucking it from the ground. It was silver and unblemished despite being on the ground and almost being stepped on. Fitting though, that the color should match her brooch and crown.
