I am Kingston, whom was introduced just now. As Islington said earlier, this tournament will be a unique opportunity to showcase the Special Steel Squad. I am honored to be a part of such a very significant event. That's all.

Profile

Divine Child Kingston Elrond is the second daughter of the royal Elrond House sisters, preceded by Farringdon, followed by Kensington, Islington and Paddington. Kingston is a no-nonsense, strict character and a stickler for rules. Kingston gets into arguments often with Farringdon and Islington, as all three have a similarly stubborn personality.

Relationship

  • Kensington - Kensington appears to be the closest in terms of relationship with her, constantly wanting her attention and is happy whenever Kingston gives her compliments, or very sorry when criticized. Kensington doesn't appear to have her own opinions while with Kingston, and is only agreeing to whatever she says.
  • Islington - There are some disagreements between Kingston and Islington, where Kingston is considered too inflexible by Islington, while Kingston considers the fourth sister too relaxed with rules.
  • Paddington - Paddington seems to be close to Kingston, but because of this, she was very nervous when she accidentally called her informally instead of formally during the Opening! The Athletic Meet of Five Countries opening and closing ceremonies and quickly corrected herself, though Kingston did not remark anything about her mistake.

Event Story

Opening! The Athletic Meet of Five Countries

Kingston's first appearance is in this event as one of the three judges in charge of scoring the Train Knights for all four events. Notably, during the lunch break before the third event. Islington and Paddington invited Kingston and Kensington to stay on the ground and browse the nearby stores for food, which Kingston declined as the original schedule is to have lunch in the campus room. Islington tried to convince her but failed, and Kensington not helping with the matter. It was thanks to the efforts of both Mary and Blackfriar however, that Kingston begrudgingly agreed to have lunch with the other sisters because the schedule was already too altered. Kensington tried again to remind her on the original plan, but was instead sternly told to proceed with the current changes.

When the Mistism cultists Fréthun, Ville and Choushi invaded the event to cause a disruption, Kingston and Kensington was not told of what happened nor were they aware of the incident. The information was withheld on purpose by the Conductor, Mary and Shimoamazu I as the cultists were too incompetent to be of any threat, yet simultaneously will be very helpful 'moles' for them to deal with the cultists in the future as they can be easily tracked.

Kingston gave a speech at the closing ceremony of the Athletic Meet, congratulating the Train Knights for both participating in the event and fighting against the Phantom Mist for years.

Trivia

Counterpart

Kingston station entrance.

Kingston railway station is in Kingston upon Thames in south-west London. It is 12 miles 9 chains (19.5 km) down the line from London Waterloo. The station and all trains serving it are operated by South Western Railway. It is in Travelcard Zone 6. The station opened on 1 July 1863 as "Kingston Town", to distinguish it from the earlier Kingston station (which became Surbiton) on the South West Main Line. It was then the terminus of the London & South Western Railway branch line from Twickenham. The platforms built when the line was prolonged in 1869 to connect to the South West Main Line were named "Kingston High Level".

The Southern Railway rebuilt and unified the station in 1935. In August 2010 it was refurbished, with the entrance, but not the concourse, moving a few metres to face Wood Street instead of being at the corner formed by Wood Street and Richmond Road, and the independent shop was replaced by a WHSmith and a Costa Coffee shop.

Kingston station platform.

In common with the 16 hourly off-peak closer commuter services to/from London Waterloo calling at Earlsfield railway station (more during peak) and all intermediate London stations all managed by South Western Railway, trains must stop at every intermediate station. There are no fast services available to mid distance destinations, which gives overcapacity towards the more suburban termini due to the longer journey time and overcrowding during the inner city phase of journeys. This situation can be contrasted to certain other routes to destinations just outside Greater London in certain other directions. However, due to its location on the Kingston Loop Line, passengers can also travel from Kingston to London via Twickenham.

The station is currently in TfL Fare Zone 6, but there is an ongoing campaign for it to be rezoned to Zone 5. The two northern platforms are on the through tracks while the third, at the south, is a long west-facing bay which has been used for past curtailments of the Shepperton service and allows for reversal of trains coming via Twickenham on Sundays or when there is a closure east of Kingston of either the loop or the main line. Stairs and lifts give access to the platforms. No buses stop at the station entrance, but Cromwell Road and Fairfield bus stations are less than two and five minutes walk away respectively.
