"He's quite shy, isn't he? Don't worry little one I won't bite.."

Elfinia reassured causing the young prince to then blush before then slowly revealing himself causing her to then smile.

Before then gracefully lowering herself to get a better look at him causing her to then gently nod with approval.

"Your indeed precious.. let me guess your mother should be Emili-no Aldra if my assumption is correct. I so rarely look back to the Old World and yet I still make time to know the names of my descendants"

Elfinia teasingly asked before then reassuringly caressing the young prince's face causing him to then adorably blush even more causing Selphie to then nod.

"Your right on the dot! His full name is in fact Aurelius Emilia Elfin Vale and The First Prince isn't his only title!"

"He may have been born an Elf but he also has several Royal Bloodlines making him also The First Prince of The Dark Elves, The Celestial Prince of The Kingdom of The Celestial Vale"

"The Holy Prince of The Temple of Aurora, an-and The First Prince of The High Elves.. thanks to that bully Celes at least.."

Selphie proudly confessed surprising Elfinia causing her to then warmly smile once more.

"I see.. so then you must be even more precious no? From your appearance, I take Aldra has already sheltered you away from the men. I don't blame her.. and it's a sound strategy but is that what you truly want?"

Elfinia curiously asked surprising the young prince causing Selphie to then smile before then taking a step back to observe.

'Sorry, my precious celestial teddy bear.. Elfinia knows what she's talking about and I don't have the heart to interfere..'

Selphie guiltily thought causing the young prince to then look to Elfinia with an adorably blushing expression.

"Aurel I'll go check up on the others.. I promise I'll be back soon!"

Selphie reassured causing the young prince to then adorably pout, after Selphie had left the young prince had soon pouted even more.

Before then remembering something else causing his pouting to then immediately cease.

Causing him to then immediately continue his blushing all the while causing Elfinia after noticing this to then gently shake her head.

"I see.. you're still a boy after all but.. when I watched where your eyes landed I realized something, you don't directly look at us rather.. you focus on something else in the hopes of ignoring our faces and.."

"Other 'prominent' features, I noticed this when you were with Selphie, you looked to the unique patterns of her dress while with me it's my armor, why is that? What are you afraid of little one?"

Elfinia asked in a gentle yet playful tone surprising the young prince causing him to then surprisingly become teary.

"I-I can't.. no-not even mommies or sisters.."

The young prince tearily confessed surprising Elfinia causing her to then reassuringly shake her head.

"Why is that?"

Elfinia asked before then gently wiping away several of the forming tears.

"Please tell me why.. Auri?"

Elfinia worriedly asked surprising the young prince even more after remembering only one other person had called him that and that was Hanah.

Causing the young prince's tears to then immediately cease surprising Elfinia.

"I-I.. I can't.. butte-butterflies!"

The young prince adorably confessed surprising Elfinia once more causing her to then gently giggle.

"Auri.. tell me where do you get these 'butterflies' and how do you feel after these 'butterflies' go away? Answer honestly will you?"

Elfinia curiously asked causing the young prince to then hesitantly nod.

"M-My belly.. an-and heart.."

The young prince embarrassingly confessed causing Elfinia to then tilt his chin before then looking straight into his eyes causing him to then immediately look away.

"Auri look at me, and not anything else.. I'm right here, so you needn't worry, I won't bite and I won't hurt you, It's just you.. and me alone in my special 'little' garden"

Elfinia gently reassured.

Causing the young prince to then immediately close his eyes before then finally calming down causing Elfinia to then nod.

"Are you ready now 'little' Auri?"

Elfinia asked causing the young prince to then hesitantly nod.

Before then slowly opening his eyes causing him to then immediately become flushed after noticing Elfinia's face close up, her face was a work of art, the celestial-like garden was mere dead grass in her presence.

The celestial-like roses were weeds in the presence of perfection causing the young prince's heart to then quickly race.

"I haven't been seen in The Old World or this one in a very long time.. I seek seclusion however, your presence is now the exception, If you were to ever need anyone to talk to or get some peace.."

"You're always welcome to stay here as long as you like, you needn't worry about time either.. I'm able to slow it down as much as I like, and you needn't also worry about aging"

"I understand mortals and some gods avoid the topic of time in general and may already have some.. 'incorrect' assumptions of the concept of time however they are only just that.. incorrect assumptions"

Elfinia comforted causing the young prince to then adorably nod in amazement and not because of both her explanation and deep insight but rather because her beauty was simply too breathtaking to take in.

Especially for a child who had always avoided such things.

Causing her to then smile after noticing the young prince's expression before then nodding causing her to then gently kiss the young prince's cheek.

"That's a payment, for both your time and your company.. oh and I'd like to show you something if you're open to it?"

Elfinia teasingly asked surprising the young prince before then adorably nodding.

Moments later Elfinia had soon conjured up an elegant silver mirror.

"Auri.. this is but an experiment"

Elfinia reassuringly explained causing the young prince to then adorably nod once more.

Causing her to then slowly flip the mirror over surprising the young prince causing him to then blush before then touching his face causing Elfinia to then gently sigh.

"It appears you've also been avoiding yourself I take it? Or haven't you noticed?"

Elfinia asked surprising the young prince causing him to then adorably look away.

"Auri.. I mean this as a compliment, and please don't get hurt by it when I say if Lady Selphine hadn't informed me of your titles of 'prince' I wouldn't have realized you were a boy at all.."

"It seems our Lady Selphine had purified your bloodline to the extent it's second only to mine, and that would also mean you had directly inherited many things 'directly' from me as well"

"I'd imagine she paid no regard to you being a 'boy' at all as I see it.. how irresponsible of our Selphie"

Elfinia confessed causing the young prince to then freeze before then looking to Elfinia with to adorably worried expression.

"Neither of those things are necessarily a bad thing, so you needn't worry Auri.. I believe I can help you make use of such.. 'perks' in time. Let's say you will be able to make 'some' girls change both their minds and.. 'lifestyle'.."

"However, in many cases, you'd be an exception to the rules and knowing my previous assumptions?"

"And knowing that your mother is 'little' Aldra.. I believe if you don't make use of them now even knowing your age then she would assist you in that regard"

"No matter.. I believe we'll have plenty of time.. follow me I'll dig through my wardrobe and you'll tell me what you like?"

"Then I'll throw something together for you when you do wake up.. you needn't worry I'll make sure to pack everything neatly and leave a note for your mother when the time comes"

Elfinia comforted causing the young prince to then adorably nod all the while causing Elfinia to then smile before then waving her hand revealing a previously hidden silver palace.

"I take it you have yet to visit The Kingdom of The Elves? No matter I hope I'm not spoiling your experience.. but it can't be helped. Let's hope they haven't kept the same architecture since then?"

Elfinia teasingly comforted once more before then gently seizing the young prince's hand.

"Before I would have mentioned that getting easily flustered would only do you a disservice.. but going off these 'assumptions' of mine I feel it's simply one of your many charms. Now let's return to this humble palace of mine?"

Elfinia teased causing the young prince to then adorably hug her hip surprising her and causing her to then quickly return the favor.

After entering the palace and walking down several hallways they had soon arrived to Elfinia's room before then finally stopping at a door.

"It's embarrassing to think about but I've never allowed any man or.. 'boy' to enter my inner chambers, fortunately for you like many things you're an exception but do mind the mess? I haven't expected any visitors in a very long time.."

Elfinia confessed causing the young prince to then adorably nod, after entering the young prince couldn't help but adorably gasp.

Elfinia's room was in fact even more lavish than the young prince's and had its own feminine charm while being covered in both white and silver silk and décor befitting both Elfinia's status and beauty.

Causing the young prince's eyes to then slowly sparkle with amazement.

"I'd imagine these modern-day Elves have now become quite modest telling by your reaction? In the beginning, both The Kingdom of The Elves and that Kingdom of The 'Celestial' Vale of yours were two of the same coin.."

Elfinia playfully confessed.

"We can talk more of that at a later date? For now let me show off my wardrobe, If something catches your eye just point and I'll put it with the others"

Elfinia encouraged.

Before then waving her hand once more causing an elegant silver door to then surprisingly appear before then slowly opening it surprising the young prince.

After noticing hundreds of silver mannequins resembling Elfinia in a large room surrounded by yet another celestial-like garden.

"Gardens are truly precious to me.. I'd imagine they are to you as well?"

Elfinia warmly teased causing the young prince to then immediately nod.

"Elfin-Elfinia's amazing! Elfinia's the smartest!"

The young prince excitedly praised surprising Elfinia causing her to then lower herself before then gently kissing the young prince's forehead.

"Your reward, your quite the charmer.. oh and it would only be proper of me to allow you to give me a proper nickname after choosing one for you during our first meeting?"

Elfinia confessed causing the young prince to then curiously nod.

"Elf-Elfine?"

The young prince curiously asked causing Elfinia to then smile.

"I quite like that name, you have my sincerest thanks little Auri"

Elfine warmly thanked.

After gently seizing the young prince's hand once more Elfine had begun both showing off and pointing out certain outfits.

Causing the young prince to excitedly pick out the same outfits.

Surprisingly both the young prince and Elfine worked in unison while also surprisingly remarkably having the same taste surprising Elfine even more.

After what felt like an hour they had soon picked over thirty outfits all of which were also conveniently Elfine's favorites causing her to once again think of how similar the two actually were until finally, they left her wardrobe.
