Welcome back to the Night Legacy! In the last chapter, we lost Jess, which was a sad loss for the
family and for me, Lestat grew into a teenager, and Drusilla went off to college.
In this chapter, we find Celestia reading a letter from her niece, Twilight Sparkle Night.
![Page 3: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Dear Aunt Celestia,
Mom said I should write you a letter. She said that she was really close to you and that I should
get to know you.
My name is Twilight Sparkle. I have a twin brother named Shining Armor and a little brother
named Spike. I don’t know why Shining and I have two names and he only has one, but every
time I ask Mom about it, she just grumbles.
I really like to read and learn. I’ve read almost every book in the house and am working on all of
my skills. Someday, I hope to study magic, just like you! Maybe you can teach me?
I really hope I get to come to your house and meet you soon, Aunt Celestia! I’ve met my cousins
at school, so maybe I’ll come home with them sometime. I especially like Marceline. She’s really
funny. I don’t see Lestat anymore. He must have grown up into a teenager.
Hope to see you soon!
Your faithful niece,
Twilight Sparkle

“Now, stand still, dear. The time has come to paint your portrait.”
“I never knew how annoying it was to stand still...”
![Page 5: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
“Your mom and your aunt both graduated with honors. I probably could have too, but I didn’t
because I wasn’t eligible for heir. It really isn’t fair. Don’t you think so, Lestat?”
“Yeah, whatever, Uncle Orion. I’m trying to play.”
“*sigh*”
![Page 6: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
“Your education is important, Lestat! You shouldn’t be slighted just because you’re a boy! It’s
discrimination!”
“Woo! High score!”
Well, you tried, Orion.
“It was worth a shot.”
![Page 7: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
“Author, listen to me play the drums!”
Very good, Tom.
“I live for rock n’ roll!”
![Page 8: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Oh, now, Marcy, this has to stop!
![Page 9: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
“*battle cry*”
*sigh*
![Page 10: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Well, at least she’s cute.
![Page 11: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
And she’s dancing along to her brother and uncle on drums and bass. This family really needs a
guitar. I will have my family band!
![Page 12: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Oh. Hi, Sandy. You come home with Max?
“Sandy have friend!”
Okay, I’ve been mean to her. You can talk normally now, Sandy.
“Oh, thank Plumbob!”
![Page 13: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
“Daddy! You’re home!”
“Aw, Marcy, it’s so good to see you!”
Marcy really is a bit of a daddy’s girl.
![Page 14: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
“So, how about those trainees today, Max?”
“Oh, yeah, they really needed to be whipped into shape!”
“Daddy? Daddy? Daddy? Daddy? Daddy? Daddy—”
“What is it, Marcy?”
“I love best, Daddy!”
“Thank you, sweetie.”
![Page 15: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Ah! It’s finished!
“Does it not capture her essence, Author?”
Oh, yes! Perfectly!
![Page 16: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
In fact, I think both of their portraits perfectly represent them! Together, they stand, heir and
spouse!
![Page 17: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
But there’s still the elephant in the room.
![Page 18: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
“Sandy, if you want, I could give you a makeover.”
“Oh, that sounds like fun!”
“Great! Let’s go upstairs!”
![Page 19: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
“Et viola!”
“Oh, my, it looks fantastic! Thank you, Max!”
“You’re welcome!”
![Page 20: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
You do look good, Sandy!
“Why, thank you, Author!”
Though, I do wonder why the military lets you and Max have so much hair.
“Details.”
![Page 21: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
“Mommy!”
“Marcy!”
Ichigo!
“Hello, other me.”
You made it to the legacy house!
“Yes, it seems Celestia and I are in the same professon.”
Neat!
![Page 22: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
“Hello, Lestat.”
“Um, hi...stranger. How do you know my name?”
“I work with your mother.”
“Oh. That makes sense, I guess.”
“Mm. Nice playing.”
“Thanks. I don’t think I like you. You sound too familiar.”
“Imagine that.”
![Page 23: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
“Ichigo, here! Let me give you a hug!”
“Er, no, that’s okay. I’m fine.”
“Oh, okay.”
![Page 24: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
“Well, I still think you’re cool!”
“Well, thank you. Thank you very much.”
Wow, other me, you’re a kind of a stick in the mud.”
“I am as you write me.”
Very true!
![Page 25: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
“So, Max...want to snuggle?”
![Page 26: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
“I’d love to!”
“Yay!”
![Page 27: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
“Come here, you.”
“Oh, Cel.”
![Page 28: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
“Ugh, couples.”
Oh, c’mon, you know you think it’s cute.
“...Maybe...”
Ha! Knew it!
![Page 29: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
“Hey, lady, you want to dance with me?”
“Sure. I’ll dance with you.”
“I like you already!”
“Good.”
![Page 30: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
“Hm, let’s see what kind of mail we have today.”
![Page 31: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
“Oh! It looks like Twilight sent me another letter!”
You know, as long as you’re catching up with family, this might be as good time as any to call
and make up with Reg.
“No.”
Oh, come on! Why not?
“He’s still mad at me. I know he is.”
You won’t know until you try. Just give him a call. He doesn’t even know about Jess yet.
“*sigh* Okay. You’re right.”
Good.
![Page 32: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
“Hello? Regulus? Hi, it’s me, Celestia. I just wanted to call you and say—Hello? Reg? You
there? ... *sigh*”
Well, that didn’t go well...
“I told you.”
Maybe you could try again later.
“No. He doesn’t want to talk to me. There would be no point.”
*sigh* Maybe someday.
![Page 33: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Ha! This brings back memories! I hadn’t changed her outfit yet!
“Remember the Bachelor Challenge?”
Yeah. You should have tried harder to win that one.
“Give it a rest, Author. We lost, fair and square.”
*grumbles*
![Page 34: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
“When I saw it, it was this big!”
“Wow, that is big!”
“Oh, good, she moved. I can lay down.”
![Page 35: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
“You look really good, Ichigo.”
“Oh, wow, Celestia, thank you.”
Um...I think Max and Marcy might secretly be androids. Look at their eyes...
“Hee!”
*shudders*
![Page 36: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
“Tickle attack!”
“Celestia, I’m ticklish!”
“I know!”
Oh, good, they look normal again. Well, Marcy still looks a little creepy...
“Hee!”
Stop that!
![Page 37: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
“I really need to be going. My daughters will start wondering where I’ve been.”
“Oh, that’s too bad. It was so good of you to come home with me!”
“Thank you for inviting me. See you at work!”
“Okay, see you!”
My simself has made connections in the main house. Good. This is good.
![Page 38: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Painting something there, Tom?
“Yes. By request.”
Carry on.
![Page 39: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Aw, she’s dreaming about Max. These two really are sweet. I’m so glad I married Max in. He’s a
sweetie.
![Page 40: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Hey, Max, got a promotion?
“Yep.”
One step closer to that lifetime want?
“Yep.”
Keep up the good work! But seriously, I don’t know why this picture is here. Oh, well. At least
Max looks good in uniform.
![Page 41: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Looks like both Max and Marcy brought home friends today! Hi, Shining Armor!
“Can’t talk right now! Busy! You can’t dodge, Marcy!”
“Can too!”
“Nuh-uh!”
“Yeah-huh!”
I have a feeling this is going to go on for a while. Moving on.
![Page 42: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
“Shining Armor says that Twilight wants to study magic! Can I learn magic too, Daddy? Please,
please, please?”
“Maybe. If you’re really good and your mother says it’s okay.”
“I can be good!”
Really?
“Yes!”
I’ll believe it when I see it.
“Hmph!”
![Page 43: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Dear Aunt Celestia,
I was reading a book about Physiology today. It was teaching about the best ways to take care of
your body and preserve energy. I tried to talk to Shining about it, but he didn’t find it as
interesting as I did.
It got me thinking. Is there magic that can affect someone’s body or motives? Is it right to use
that kind of magic on someone, whether the effects are good or bad? When I go to college, I
think I’ll write my thesis on the ethics of magic.
What do you think, Aunt Celestia? From what I’ve read, magic can be considered good or evil,
but is there really a difference if magic serves to force a result? Someday, I hope we can talk
about it together.
How are you? Uncle Orion called Mom today about Grandma Jessica. It’s the first time I’ve
ever seen her sad. I was sad too, even though I never met her. From what Mom told us, she was
amazing. I’ll visit soon so I can meet you and Grandma Lila.
Your faithful niece,
Twilight Sparkle
![Page 44: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
“Twilight seems like such a sweet girl and so insightful for a girl her age! I really would like to
meet her someday.”
Cel, what is that red thought over your head?
“Oh, I hoped you wouldn’t notice...”
You got demoted, didn’t you?
“...Yes. But it wasn’t my fault! I made one bad decision and my boss overreacted!”
I hate chance cards like that.
![Page 45: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Well, here’s a nice shot. Maxwell’s work friend playing video games while Lestat, Marceline,
Tom, and random red-headed townie I had Marcy greet watch and cheer him on.
Such camaraderie in the House of Night! The family, not the book series, obviously.
![Page 46: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
And here’s Celestia, barely paying attention. Whatcha up to, Cel?
“Well, since my current job seems to be going nowhere, I thought I’d try again for my old dream
of going into Journalism.”
And did you find it?
“Actually, yes!”
Hooray! Better late than never!
![Page 47: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
I think I took this picture for the sole purpose of showing off how beautiful Celestia is.
By the way, Cel, what happened to the flower arranging badge?
“Oh, that. I just kind of forgot about it after Marcy was born.”
Eh, don’t worry about it. So did I.
![Page 48: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
The next day, Celestia heads off for her new job! It always the crappy car for new employees,
isn’t it?
“Oh, yes, but I don’t mind. It’s nice of them to help me get to work.”
True. Very true.
![Page 49: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Looks like Twilight came home with Marceline after school today! Too bad Cel is at work. I
don’t think they got to meet this visit. Such a shame.
And Maxwell’s friend is still playing videogames while Tom and random red-head watch. And
it’s not like this is in the morning, Marcy has gone to school and come home. Man, townies have
great endurance!
![Page 50: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Marcy is the kid who always runs to greet her parents when they come home from work. She
must really love her parents.
She could also be trying to butter them up so they ignore whatever trouble she’s caused, but I
choose to believe the former.
![Page 51: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
“C’mere, squirt!”
“Ah! Lestat, stop!”
“Never!”
“I’ll get you for this!”
“I’d like to see you try!”
![Page 52: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Lila hasn’t featured a lot in this chapter so far. What are you doing, Lila?
“Trying to max out my last skill. I max out Body and I have learned every basic skill!”
Ah! Yes, do that! Just don’t get to hot! Sims have been known to die from that.
![Page 53: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Calling Reg, maybe?
“No. Romi. I wanted to make sure she’s okay, so I’m inviting her over. I know she was hit hard
by Louis’s disappearance.”
Ah. Well, that’s good too.
![Page 54: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
“Hello, Celestia. It was very nice of you to call.”
![Page 55: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
“Not a problem, Romi. You look very nice, much better than last we met.”
“Thank you. I’m feeling a bit better.”
And I hadn’t changed my vampire defaults yet.
“What was that, Author?”
Nothing.
![Page 56: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
“Lestat is always playing this game. I think he might be obsessed.”
“I can see why. It’s a pretty good racing game. They’ve updated it since I played as a kid.”
![Page 57: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
But Romi didn’t share in the fun for long.
“Don’t you want to keep playing?”
“Actually, I’m suddenly feeling tired. I don’t mind watching you play, though.”
“Oh. Well, okay, then.”
![Page 58: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Hey, Romi.
“Hi, Author.”
You okay?
“Not for awhile. I don’t suppose you’d tell me where my son is?”
Can’t. Sorry.
“Well, to hell with you, then.”
I really am sorry.
“Yeah, whatever.”
![Page 59: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
“Hi. You’re a vampire, right?”
“Yes, I am.”
“Do vampires need doctors?”
![Page 60: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
“What?”
“I was just wondering. Do vampires ever get sick?”
“Not that I know of.”
“So, you don’t need doctors?”

“No. We don’t need doctors.”
“Oh.”
![Page 62: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
“So, could a vampire become a doctor or make their own medicine, if they never get sick?”
“Why do you think of such things?”
“Just curious.”
![Page 63: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
“Well, I’m sure a vampire could become a doctor and make medicine, whether they ever get sick
or not. All the blood involved in the job is a completely different matter, though.”
“Ohhhhhhh...That’s cool!”
“I’m glad you think so.”

“I’m afraid I have to be heading home.”
“Oh, that’s too bad. I wish you could stay around longer.”
“Don’t want to be caught in the sun. Your daughter...Marceline, right?”
“Yes, you remembered!”
“She’s a cool kid. I’m glad I met her. See you ‘round.”
“See you!”

And hey, look! It’s my icon!
That must be fun to do.
“Author, go away.”
Okay...
![Page 66: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
AH! AIYANA!
“Wait, what?”
Go away, you! You will not have romantic relations with Lestat and then become a mustache-
twirling villain!
“What are you talking about?”
BEGONE!
![Page 67: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Thankfully, Lestat has no interest in her whatsoever.
![Page 68: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Is that a birthday cake I spy?
It must be Marcy’s birthday!
![Page 69: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
“Time to invite the family,”
*opens mouth*
“I’m not inviting Reg.”
*closes mouth and pouts*
![Page 70: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Hey, Orion! Hey, Drusilla!
“Hi, Author.”
“Good to see you, Author.”
Aiyana, don’t think I don’t see you.
“*blows a raspberry*”
![Page 71: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Hey, Luna! Where’s Meadow and the kids?
“Not enough room to invite them.”
Aw! This would have been the perfect opportunity to introduce the kids to Cel!
“I know, but you know, rules.”
Bleh, rules.
![Page 72: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Time to blow out the candles! Ready, Marcy?
“Ready, Author!”
![Page 73: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Everyone starts to gather ‘round!
Luna, are you sure you can see?
“Oh, yeah, don’t worry about me. I’m fine.”
Well, okay, then.
![Page 74: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
“Yay, Marceline!”
“Yay, girl we don’t know!”
This is what happens when random townies attend birthday parties.
![Page 75: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Spin around and let’s see what we got!
Also, nice blocking the camera, Orion.
“Marceline, yay!”
At least he’s having fun.
![Page 76: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Very cute! But you need a makeover. To the mirror with you!
![Page 77: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Hey, where did Dru go? And for that matter, where’s Tom?
...
Oh, no.
![Page 78: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
OH, ACR, WHY?
TOM, YOU’VE BEEN HERE SINCE BEFORE SHE WAS BORN!
“Apologies, Author. I must follow my electronic heart!”
“Yeah, Author, don’t judge!”
I...WHAT...WHY...
*takes a deep breath*
I can feel a migraine starting...
![Page 79: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Back to the birthday girl! She’s gorgeous! I love those clothes on her and she looks great in
Lila’s original hair!
“Thanks, Author!”
Please don’t cause me any headaches.
“No promises!”
*groans*
![Page 80: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
“Happy birthday, Marcy! I miss you so much.”
![Page 81: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
“*muffled* I miss you too, Dru, but I can’t breathe!”
“Oh, sorry!”
![Page 82: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
“I can’t wait until you come to college with me! It’s going to be great!”
“Oh, totally! It’s gonna be a blast!”
I won’t forget this, Dru.
“What was that, Author? I’m trying to have a conversation here!”
You better be glad you have the eyes.
![Page 83: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
“Woo! My birthday was awesome!”
I’m glad! It’s always good to have a great party!
“Especially because I’m awesome!”
Yes, you are.
![Page 84: Night Legacy: Chapter 10](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051502/58ee9b641a28ab5f748b4675/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
And we’ll end on this shot of Marcy looking gorgeous!
Will Celestia rise to the top of journalism? Will Romi find her son? Will I let Lestat go through
college? Will I kill Tom and Dru? Who will be heir? These questions may or may not be
answered in the next chapter of the Night Legacy!
See you then!
