Among all the angels, there was this one little one named Chrysanthea ... who patiently waited her turn, as you're supposed to do if you're polite ...While she waited her turn, she enjoyed the night sky and all the stars. She especially liked stars because they twinkled and they were bright and probably smart.
Then the day came ... Chrysanthea was called down from the sky to talk with the archangel Michael. That was a little intimidating because he was pretty tall and famous, and he had been doing important stuff for a long time, so she was a little shy as she presented herself at his office. The staff of angels welcomed her warmly and escorted her into where Michael was. He smiled cheerfully when he saw her and introduced her around.Chrysanthea, this is Arthur. He will lead your group and show you what to do since this is your first time doing angel work. Chrysanthea shook Arthur's hand and noticed he was big and pretty strong, but he smiled, too, so that was nice.
Introductions continued with Chrysanthea meeting Brindur and Zanthus, rounding out the team. Arthur gathered them together to tell them what was ahead for them.
There's a precious young girl with a beautiful heart who was born in the Spring, and her name is Ruby. She was born near the forest and not far from the river, and everyone was there to celebrate her arrival. Her mom, of course, and her dad, and her grandparents, and they waited for hours and hours and hours, till she finally arrived and smiled at them all. She was very small to start, like baby-size, but she grew a little every day.
Well, it turns out her Grammy, who loves her dearly, prays for her every day. "Father, watch over my precious granddaughter. Keep her safe and healthy and happy." So Grammy's request got forwarded to Archangel Michael, and he put together a team of angels including Chrysanthea to watch over Ruby.Grandmothers do that, it seems. Grampa's grandmother prayed for him and Grammy all the time, and Ruby's great-grandmothers pray for her, and there's lots of stories over the years.
So the years go by, and with the other angels, Chrysanthea watches over Ruby, and defends her in difficult times, and now there's even more stories.
And because there's always a hidden meaning, for such a story, ...
