Plot Summary: The Moon Kingdom has long flourished under the graceful rule of Queen Serenity. She and her kingdom are guarded by the protecting light of the Silver Crystal, and have good relations with the people of Earth. This majestic kingdom was once home to the Queen, her heir, Princess Serenity, and her four guardians. During this era, the Earth was lead by Prince Endymion and his four loyal guardians. Despite a forbidden law on relations been the people of the Earth and Moon, Endymion and Serenity fell in love. However, a powerful sorceress named Beryl had her heart set on the First Crown Prince - in envy, she rallied the citizens of Earth in a war to destroy the Moon. Both Endymion and Serenity would fall victim to Beryl's nefarious plot. However, Queen Serenity could not bring herself to reset the timeline and resurrect her daughter. Instead, she lived a long bitter life. Queen Serenity would punish Earth for their actions by cutting their alliance and removing the brilliance of the moon, plunging them into complete darkness.
Now, the Queen is old and unable to continue her reign. But without an heir, the Moon Kingdom will be left vulnerable. She turns to her faithful guardians, the Sailor Soldiers, to decide who is worthy of becoming the Moon's next champion and harnessing the power of the Silver Crystal. To expedite her decision, she places the guardian soldiers in the hardest test of their lives - against themselves. Who will be triumphant? Or is the trial another one of Serenity's bitter actions, too gruesome to finish?
Restrictions: Available to Queen Serenity and Inner Senshi.
Notes: This story takes place is an alternate Silver Millennium where time was not reset after Endymion and Serenity's deaths. The guardians are in their twenties now and more powerful than before. Also, I would like this to be a series of RPs revolving around the 'what if' scenario if Serenity did not reincarnate everyone. If this goes well we can do splinter stories to expand on this idea! <3
