Crystal Saga Series 3, 9-Dealing with Darkness and 10-Expansion into Space

My name is Dr. Hanover. I am a professional astronomer in the kingdom of Marinea. My colleagues and I have just recently discovered that we can no longer see the stars through our telescope. We brought this issue to the Queen’s attention, and she asked us some pertinent questions—about supernovas—that we could not answer definitively. At the end of our meeting, she invited me to join her in the hall and we walked to her office. Commander Sean took over the meeting with my colleagues. During my meeting with the Queen, she offered me the position of Special Scientific Consultant to the Crown. I was honored. I will have my own office in the Royal Palace. My name is Crystos. I am the new Dean of Intergalactic Endeavors in the emerging Space Force. I am a Super Child and Twin to Georgio, who is the Commander of the Space Force. My background is quite varied. I had no memories of childhood—in fact, no memories at all until I reached puberty and was accepted at the Academy of Magic. I began my connection to the Royal Family of the kingdom of Marinea on the planet of Akura as a tutor to their newly-born twins, who were much more advanced than their cousins who were born around the same time. It became clear to me that the twins were Fourth Generation.
