"Holding onto special things like.. my first kiss would only burden me, I'll be wearing my mask and.. I'd rather have my first pillar to take responsibility for it? I won't take it off in front of the others.."

"I don't want anyone else to see my face so only in private and only here.. if anyone attempts to remove my mask and.. It isn't you, Keira, your sisters, or your mommies.. I'll blind them"

Elyris mentally confessed surprising both the young prince and Jade, especially with the last bit! Causing Jade who could only 'guess' what would happen if someone she 'didn't' know tried snatching her mask off?

Which would no doubt end up with the person in question either being blinded and if not killed! All the while after making a mental note the young prince adorably looked at Elyris's face in the hopes of adapting.

Causing Elyris after surprisingly assuming just that to then nod, having also secretly hoped he 'could', since after all he 'is' among the only select few people who she actually 'wanted' to see her face, so of course, she couldn't have her first pillar's nose bleeding all the time!

Meaning no matter how much effort it took she'd be ok with it as long as towards the end he could look to her without any adverse effects?

All the while after an hour of this mixed in with both magic research and some rest the young prince showed great progress!

Not in magic of course even if he did so quite a bit but instead.. his nose bleeds were now completely manageable! And after two days of this including even more magic research, adapting, and even some extensive girl talks?

However, now it was quite time to return to the training camp!

After spending another day of this Jade had soon continued time and waited until the early morning where both the young prince and Elyris had finally woken up.

Before then squeezing through both the still sleeping Octavia and Ayla and quietly sneaking out of the room.

However, they were soon greeted by Molly having gone to the bathroom causing all three to then awkwardly look to each.

Causing Elyris having already known who she was through the young prince to surprisingly ignore the fact that she saw her face since it seemed both were in a similar situation even if she had more time to recover?

Causing the young prince having had an idea to then adorably whisper into Molly's ear explaining everything the best he could all the while promising to tell her the rest in the bath since after all Molly only truly knew her connection to The Vestial Empire.

And obviously didn't know or hear what the young prince had learned let alone who Elyris truly was causing her to then slightly nod especially since she wasn't really sleepy anymore?

After getting out of their nightgowns and into the hot bath the young prince had soon explained everything he learned along with the connections to Malik, The Vestial Empire.

The Vares Family, and even both Elyris and Hanah having suffered along with her.

Surprising both Elyris and Molly even more since the young prince essentially explained quite literally everything he 'knew' and learned.

All the while leaving out Jade and some other godly antics causing poor Molly having now been brought up to date on everything to then freeze.

Having been quite literally overwhelmed with it all, in truth she was still skeptical of her 'birth' name?

Especially after being told The Vestial Empire was responsible for it, along with the fact that most of the dots lead back to them and strangely enough even to her?

To her she'd rather be considered a Polis Ophan and a Celestial Princess rather than being born a Vestial Princess who was later thrown into an orphanage just to be kidnapped and to later endure years of suffering because even now she felt like a villain!

Despite being a victim connected to both Hanah and Elyris who also suffered greatly from it, she still felt since she was born a Vestial Princess then she'd naturally be no different from those monsters who orchestrated it all!

Causing her to then momentarily break down causing Elyris who also had the same ancestral eyes as the young prince to then reluctantly use them on Molly before then immediately being blinded by Molly's own memories.

All of which were mostly concentrated in that sanctuary she heard about causing her stomach to then immediately turn witnessing her time as an abandoned orphan up to even the most painful of memories in her 'sanctuary'.

Before then finally feeling the sheer amount of guilt and how much Molly truly blamed herself causing Elyris having felt both blindsided and overwhelmed by Molly's thought to then immediately freeze after realizing she was cut off?!

Causing Molly having surprisingly felt Elyris's prying to then immediately glare at her as provoked before then trying her best to calm down causing the now guilty Elyris having felt even more guilty to then surprisingly pull out her memory crystal.

Before then giving it to her after mentally apologizing causing Molly who was still quite upset to then reluctantly take it before then looking through Elyris's own memories causing her to then hesitantly pause.

All the while this was happening the young prince invited Hanah through a mental message resulting in after a few minutes of both apologizing to each other, Hanah had finally joined them before then subsequently being updated on everything herself.

Resulting in a few minutes of awkward silence while all three collected themselves causing Hanah to then sigh.

"Let's just.. think about this? I was both abandoned and sealed away and even lied to by that bastard for thousands of years alone in that room, at least until Aurel found me and after 'accidentally' putting him in a coma he 'eventually' saved me and even forgave me.."

"While Elyris my only niece who was hidden from everyone other than my mother, just for her to be later treated like a lab rat after 'again' being abandoned by guess who? Malik yet 'again'.. before then finally falling into a permanent sleep.."

"And 'eventually' being woken up and 'saved' by Aurel? While for Molly who was born a 'Vestial' Princess just to be abandoned at an orphanage before 'then' being kidnapped, tortured, beaten and worse while suffering for much of her childhood in Polis?"

"Just to be later rescued and adopted by Theodore, while also later almost being kidnapped once 'again' before then being 'saved' by both Aurel's Draconian Royal Guard Puppets and Theodore himself.. oh and Aurel also got cursed and was 'also' apparently a target?"

Hanah frustratingly explained having her anger immediately be overwhelmed with headaches resulting in her trying her best to explain it all causing all three to then hesitantly nod having seen the similarities.

"All the dots point to that batard Malik, his bastard fan club, and The Vestial Empire where both Malik and his fan club 'could' still be hiding, while for Molly who was born an actual Vestial Princess just to be later 'abandoned' and suffered most of her childhood, which is apparently an ongoing theme now!"

"And that only makes me suspect that maybe.. just maybe! That bastard Malik had abandoned you too since apparently, that's all he's good at! The only real 'positive' is that Aurel saved all of us one way or the other and now he's being targeted for it too!

"And let's not even talk about the Void who most likely only ever joined because they probably thought it would be a lot of fun because apparently they only ever enjoy tagging along majority of the time!

"Another positive being since they made him their 'target' The Vestial Empire has finally overstepped and will finally pay for it!"

Hanah strangely added before then continuing even further.

"The fact that they kept so many secrets and hid them so poorly only means they never thought any of 'us' would actually be saved! And I know that bastard Malik! He'd never be so sloppy.."

"If he was involved no one would've ever found out and he wouldn't even care about The Vestial Empire even more so if he did have another family.. knowing him he'd still abandon them later anyways! Thinking of abandonment.. am I the only one with abandonment issues?"

Hanah surprisingly asked having come to a shocking revelation however, unfortunately, she couldn't really say it out loud.

Resulting in her 'naturally' changing the topic.. by asking something quite 'obvious' causing both Molly and Elyris to then seriously squint their eyes.

Before then looking to each other and to the young prince and finally back to Hanah as if unsure how to respond to either the confession or the question itself?

Causing both having actually needed to put in the thought to then quickly come to the same realization.. both apparently had quite 'serious' abandonment issues while Elyris had added daddy issues!

Causing all three after realizing this to then finally look to the young prince as if expecting something causing him after noticing this to then adorably look to all three with an adorably curious expression.

Causing Jade having been watching all this time to then also look to the young prince.. albeit at her wall since she was 'still' inside of him after all causing her to then surprisingly giggle her heart out.

All the while after a few minutes of mentally going back and forth some more the young prince adorably took turns brushing all three's hair since now he wasn't really included in this bit of the discussion.

Causing Hanah having somewhat hated her failed attempt of acting 'nice' to then eventually return to her angry self albeit a lot calmer causing all three after finishing up to then look to the young prince who was happily finishing up Molly's hair.

"Aurel.. all three of us can't express how important you are to us? For both me and Elyris you practically stumbled upon us and gave it your all to help us, be it unsealing me, and helping me throughout my suffering to then do the same for Ely.."

"And even Molly.. your 'first-ever' training partner? She has already earned being my second niece even if 'we' have yet to confirm it.."

"She may still be a 'Vestial' Imperial Princess but that's just another word for an 'extremely' deluded 'Celestial' Imperial Princess and since she's not 'that', then by all logic she's one of ours?"

Hanah surprisingly explained with a proud yet angry expression surprising all three

"Anyone even if they're only ever 'close' to awakening their ancestral bloodline can.. strictly speaking actually only ever 'use' The Imperial Honorifics albeit.. unofficially! Since you're only supposed to 'after' achieving it yourself?"

"But you already have them even if they're not strictly 'celestial' so let's just ignore 'that' and start our Imperial Trinity!"

Hanah angrily proclaimed surprising the young prince and causing both Elyris and Molly having seen Idol groups and their influences through the young prince's magepad to then create a secret group name only 'they' knew about!

Excluding the young prince since he now knew along with the fact that he was an unofficial member along with the fact he had yet to visit either The Draconian or Ophidian Empire to get his Imperial titles, honorifics, and so forth.

Unfortunately, his title of Holy Celestial Emperor didn't really count especially since he was Lady Celestia's Holy Consort?

However, Hanah had soon explained the meaning and reasons behind creating such a secret group and name only 'they' were members of?

The Imperial Trinity was in itself a 'code' name that was meant to both signify all three as a trinity along with it being used to simply ward off if not confuse anyone who discovered such a name in the hopes they'd simply think of it as an 'Idol' group.

And not a group of people sharing who were both after the truth if not a little 'revenge' for obvious reasons since after all three were 'abandoned' and suffered thing no ordinary person could have not to mention each form of suffering was nowhere close to being the same.

Causing the young prince have put two and two together with Jade's help to then adorably go back to what Hanah said in the beginning before then adorably pouncing on three and hugging them to his heart's content!

All the while after both the adorable antics and even more of both of the many explanations and speculations all four had finally finished their bath got dressed and prepared for the day!

Resulting in all three doing so before then finally returning to bed! While Elyris continued to wear her mask since surprisingly enough it felt like wearing nothing at all!
