TLoV Christmas Canon
Lucette absolutely adores Christmas. Her favorite holiday of all. She invites the children from the surrounding cities of her kingdom to help her decorate the palace, with guards and doors to no no areas locked of course.
She increases charity efforts around Valencia, appearing more often and making sure to turn as little people away as possible.
TERRUS’ BIRTHDAY MONTH! He tells her not to throw a big party, so she hosts a little get together with close friends and living servants that he has befriended. The last dance is usually reserved for Lucette but this year, someone new may take that spot this year😏(Haukey Boi)
Lucette gives custom made gifts to her family and friends. Usually a matching pair of rapiers or sabers to Kane and Queen, a new pocket watch or music box or clock to Deacon, new armor or even new shields for Rooke, she one time got a cockatoo for Bishop. This year, Lucette gifted Ulysses a new custom made armor set with two new swords. Terrus received a new set of dual pistols similar to his current ones. Except with more upgrades and new ammunition. And a kiss on the cheek.
Eira got new dresses, jewelry, and a dollhouse replica of the palace. Replica was from Lucette, the other stuff was from other noblewomen who was charmed by Eira
Hauke got a custom made shield with his initials on the inside, a dagger with a curved blade, and surprisingly enough, a bag filled with smoke bombs and a note. “Just in case someone gives you too much trouble. ;) -M.T”
The royal family end Christmas night with a large party and feast while holiday festivals take place all across Valencia.

Y’ALL
You guys can’t see what I’m drawing right now but I STAN LUCETTE HARDER THAN EVER BEFORE! SHE’S TAKING AFTER HER UNCLE SO MUCH IN THIS PICTURE! AND THE PICTURE IS FUTURE CANON, SO EVEN BETTER! I LOVE THIS CHILD SO MUCH!!!
Maybe Not Her Mother....
Despite being such a beautiful sunny day, Lucette only felt like she was standing underneath a dark storm cloud. This emotional dark cloud only made her more upset. While everyone else was gifting flowers and objects to their mothers, she was laying a wreath of flowers on her mother’s grave.
“It’s not fair.” She mumbled to herself, blinking quickly to push back her tears. Everyone else was dressing up in bright colors and laughing and talking with their mother’s while here she was, dressed head to toe in black, kneeling before her mother’s grave. She shouldn’t be here. Her mother shouldn’t be underground. She should’ve been waking up to her daughter and husband bringing her breakfast in bed. Sailing through the skyways to her favorite islands. Running through flower filled meadows, barefoot and laughing.
“And yet, here I am. Wallowing under a perpetual cloud that only darkened on this special day.”
“Indeed, but it is only reasonable and expected of you to be here on this day.”
Startled, Lucette spun around to see a familiar beautiful clockwork standing a few feet behind her. Queen.
“Queen. What are you doing here?” She questioned.
“Looking for you. Protecting you. Supporting you.” Queen replied, smoothly making her way over to the saddened princess and kneeling next to her, her eye holes fixated on the grave. Lucette felt comforted by her presence. Though Queen wasn’t her mother and can’t replace her mother, no one could, but Queen did a good job supporting her like one.
“Thank you, Queen.”
“It is my pleasure, colombina.”
And when the women made their way home to the palace, Lucette’s mourning veil was off her head and Queen had a gentle arm wrapped around her shoulder.
TLoV Deviantart Update
Guess who finally posted Chapter 15 on Deviantart?!
My friend, who shall not be named, decided to be a traitor and remind me of my responsibilities, one of which being that it has been a whole as year since I’ve updated TLoV on Deviantart.
Chapter had been written last year but never posted. I can hear my readers sharpening their pitchforks now.
Here’s the link to the chapter: http://fav.me/de38w12
Oh shit, I completely forgot to announce that I finally updated The Light of Valencia on A03
Warning: There is graphic violence and body harm in that chapter

TLoV Update
Guys.....
I’ve done it. I’ve updated The Light of Valencia on AO3! Okay, its chapter 15 but even my DA readers should still read it since its rewritten. So things are different.
My writing style has changed from back then and I hated the way it looked and the sentence structure, so I just rewrote it all.
I know its been a really long time for my TLoV fans and I apologize for that. Ch16 is currently being written and hopefully won’t take as long since we’re getting to juicy important parts.
Update
Chapter 16 of The Light of Valencia is finally up and out!
Update Edit
Um........well, bad news.
It has come to my attention that...I’m an idiot. And impatient.
In my rush to push out Ch16, I had completely forgotten that I did not transfer over some of the chapters that I had posted on Deviantart onto AO3. And because of this, it messed up the narrative progression of the story on AO3.
I had forgotten to transfer Chapters 11, 12, 13, and 14 to AO3. And now I have to fix that. I don’t know how but if you see some chapters mysterious vanish and then reappear in a different order, don’t panic. That’s me fixing my fuck up.
