"I-I'm so sorry Aurel! I-I need to bake some more an-and I have to attend to m-my ambassadorial duties in an hour.. Th-The Light Elf Ambassador an-and the others can't sleep! Bu-But I'll try to stop by and make it up to you tomorrow! I-I promise you the best cake!"

Sura adorably apologized before then adorably remembering something and whispering into the young prince's ear exciting him to no end! And causing Sura to then adorably nod.

"Af-After tea time introduction with the new ambassadors I'll check up on babies an-and tomorrow.. I-I'll play with baby Aurel and baby Octavia th-the whole day!"

Sura adorably reassured causing the young prince to then excitedly nod having successfully been bribed!

All the while causing Mora having wondered where Jade had gone off to then ultimately pout since despite sleeping right next to her she was still playing with her mortal avatar.

Causing Mora to then adorably pout even more before then simply slapping the sleeping Jade, waking her up all but instantly!

Apparently, she had actually been sleeping leaving her mortal avatar to finish her preparations.

Having felt she made enough progress so she could watch over her bestie while her mortal avatar became a menace or pushed over hundreds of cows in a field somewhere after finishing the preparations.

Resulting in Jade now adorably wrapping her arms around Mora and happily watching over her besties!

Soon enough after adorably hugging Sura once more and making a promise to visit Sura since she had always visited them and he wanted to finally do the same!

All the while both Octavia and the young prince finally left the kitchen and made their way back to the balcony! Causing the young prince having remembered all about his magepad to then adorably nod before then realizing he left Gemma out?!

Since Emilia was even busier as of late because of her hectic schedule such as investigating The Celestial Inquisition.

How they obtained such an extinct weapon, why they truly targeted the young prince's guard, along with in-depth investigations looking for links outside of what they already knew.

She'd, of course, be busy, the reasoning being it was both a personal and royal matter, despite appearances and how relaxed everything seemed this simply wasn't something they could hand to just anyone, let alone the crimes in themselves.

Ordinarily, The Celestial Hand would simply exterminate such groups no matter their involvement alongside The Temple of Celestia.

However, due to the information Bradley had provided not only did the leaks get snatched by not only The Celestial Hand but Their Elven counterpart as well.

It all became a race of all things? While Lady Celestine helped where she could while Celes was stuck dealing with the reconciliation nonsense at least those were in her words.

Resulting in her rushing it quite a bit while contemplating who to smite first.

While Bradley having realized the connections to The Celestial Elder Council met with both Celestial Elder Eldri and The Matriarch of The Vares Family.

While Auriana 'tagged' along, in truth Bradley didn't wish to exterminate if not replace the elder council due to them simply knowing.

However, if they had indeed known and helped The Celestial Inquisition in any way the implications would result in a purge of such things. Resulting in both Celie and Emilia being quite busy despite the speediness of their investigations.

So for the time being Gemma was currently in command.

Albeit she usually was due to the simple fact that both Emilia and Celie led entire organizations and were very much royals in current capacity and in truth simply didn't have to and rather simply chose to.

Causing the young prince after whispering into Octavia's ear and kissing her cheek to then adorably race over to Gemma who was still following in the distance before then adorably pouncing into her arms surprising Gemma.

And causing her to then gently smile having experienced this quite a few times from Noel, Aldra, and even Kethyllia, however, no matter how many times she had experienced it, she simply couldn't contain it and would gently giggle every time!

Which in itself was a rare display and made the young prince especially happy causing him to then proudly smile before then righteously whispering into Gemma's ear causing her to then gently nod.

Resulting in Octavia adorably nodding, soon enough they continued on their way however this time Gemma was much closer and Octavia was even more curious.

"I heard from big sister Selphie that you were Queen Elfinia's favorite granddaughter? What was that like?! And do you know what a magepad is?!"

Octavia excitedly asked, causing Gemma to then gently contemplate for several moments before then gently nodding.

"I'd imagine it's an open secret now it seems? Yes, Queen Elfinia was indeed my grandmother. However, she was never truly called such? My sisters and I had always referred to her as mommy and later mother, and over time I'd also imagine it became a tradition among the many royal families?"

"The name grandmother despite the formality to others simply doesn't exist? As for mother Elfinia and my childhood?"

"It was indeed truly special and I treasure every moment, as for the specifics I'd imagine being born an Ancestral Elven Princess and assisting our mothers in creating the future for The Elves was quite special as well?"

"As for the matter pertaining to that of Magepads? They had already existed far before the arrival of The Greater Races, they were also indeed quite popular"

"And yes I'd imagine I also enjoyed it quite a bit, so much so that I became what they called an 'Alpha' Tester for something similar to Magebook. It was called Gildergram If I remember correctly-"

Gemma curiously explained before then finally being cut off causing Octavia to then adorably pause before then silently taking out her magepad.

Resulting in the young prince doing the same with an adorably confused expression and after noticing this Gemma gently smiled before then doing the same.

Revealing an ornate starlight silver Magepad inscribed with the insignia of an Ancestral Elven Princess, and the royal patterns of Elfinia.

Causing Gemma after charging it with her Sacred Mana to then finally turn it on revealing much more! The insignias and patterns themselves glowed in a gorgeous light.

Apparently, it was no different from any of the newest magepads.. perhaps it was even better?!

Surprising both and causing Octavia having realized this to then adorably look at both hers and the young prince's magepad and simply pout at such an injustice!

Albeit she understood why but still!

Soon enough after finally arriving to the balcony and setting up the snacks both Octavia and the young prince updated Gemma on the new hub, and thankfully enough she was still logged in and had several unique statuses!

Her profile had gone dormant after both The Alpha and Beta Testing resulting after inputting a password and mana analysis it finally appeared public once more!

Revealing a much younger Gemma, profile pictures, selfies, along with many more precious memories.

Causing Gemma to then all but immediately add both as her friends and followed them while the young prince was in her lap looking at her magepad since it was bigger.

While Octavia leaned on Gemma's shoulder while diving through it all on her own magepad causing the young prince's eyes to then adorably sparkle and a bright blush to soon appear..

Gemma was gorgeous, stunning, and to put it simply a goddess of elven beauty! However, her much younger self was simply breathtaking and gave him an overwhelming case of butterflies!

She was Sura's Level of Cuteness and even if 'less' adorable meant nothing!

Gemma was simply overwhelming! Resulting in the young prince adorably glancing up at her from time to time.. she had suppressed so much!

Causing the young prince having decided to show off his ancestral form albeit reluctantly due to the simple fact he had yet to truly recover from the incident involving the balance?

Stinging Lava accompanied by the unspeakable pain that followed had left its mark.. or perhaps it's trauma?

Causing the young prince to then adorably let his hair loose and with some hesitation switch to his Elven Ancestral Royal Bloodline surprising both Gemma and Octavia.

And causing the young prince after getting up to then shyly show it off before then adorably pouncing back into his original spot.

Having chosen to remain in this bloodline for the night since he had already spent months with the ancestral counterpart?

Causing Gemma to then warmly giggle at the sight and Octavia having felt proud of her little brother to then eventually flick his forehead.

"Hmph! Two Ancestral Bloodlines and my favorite little brother still won't spill the secrets to his favorite big sister!"

Octavia jokingly pouted causing the young prince to then adorably pause before then shyly revealing all of his fingers on one hand.

Surprising Octavia to no end before then seriously flicking the poor young prince's forehead five more times causing the young prince to then adorably switch to all four each per flick.

Revealing that of His Celestial, Auroran, Black Dragon of Destruction, Celestial Dragon Aspect, and finally back to his Elven, in truth this was utterly unintentional..

Apparently despite being healed this may or may not be a side effect while in his ancestral form..

Or perhaps his bloodline aspects were doing it on purpose?

In any case, this was an apparent issue now! Causing Octavia to then do it another four times causing the young prince to then adorably become teary.

"B-Big pretty pink bully! Aur-Aurel will tell big sister!"

The young prince teary pouted before then whispering into her ear explaining how he obtained all five.

And how he couldn't truly control his black dragon of destruction form due to it simply being uncontrollable even if with training, along with the fact that it was currently his strongest form.

Surprising Octavia, not only by this but of something else!

"Wa-Wait?! Who's Adel.. and Katie was serious?! I thought it was all a joke you know?! How could that 'crazy' cutie be a dragon aspect?! Kaylan, I believe but Katie-"

Octavia honestly confessed resulting in Katie having just woken up and heard this to immediately appear alongside the sleepy Adel and Kaylan.

As they were practically dragged along with her leaving only the sleeping Alfy funnily enough surprising all three.

And causing Kaylan to frown having drunk quite a bit and didn't feel comfortable showing that off..

While Adel being Adel emotionlessly curled up into a ball and fell asleep in Octavia's lap causing Octavia to then ultimately melt having missed her adorable little void fox.

All the while Kaylan, having felt quite cranky, helplessly sighed.

"Ignore this brat, she gave him her 'own' Ancestral Bloodline of The Celestial Void Aspect, I would have punished her if not for Master Frostma's interference, each aspect's bloodline is unique during every stage of life, her's is incredibly young yet powerful and at times uncontrollable, even if she had already mastered it he won't"

"The transference of any aspect's bloodline had already been expressly forbidden by the aspect council, if not for Master Frostma and myself it would have been removed, so obtaining one through this way is no longer allowed"

"As for Lady Kayda's Bloodline only she had the right to judge and decide, the aspect council has no rights to even speak to her let alone sway her judgment"

"The Black Dragon Aspect of Destruction however was purposely diluted and until Lady Kayda suggests otherwise is still a member of The Aspect Council and forced to obey the same"

"Lady Kayda has already voiced her approval and much more on behalf of Aurel so he needn't worry, but as of now he's the 'only' one exempted from such rulings"

Kaylan explained before then seriously poking his cheek as a reminder and returning to his bloodline.

Having thankfully not mumbled anything under her breath and used the lesson as a successful escape to finish her bottle of bloodwine while hugging the still sleeping.

All the while Katie looked around as if looking for Ayla before then eventually stealing half of their snacks and returning to his bloodline.

"Shameless! No wonder why you and Ayla get along so well together! Thinking of Ayla.. how did she suddenly become your mommy's and Noel's sister in a day?! It's weird how it's barely talked about, you know? And what happened to that pearl demon hussy-consort Lilyana whatever?"

"And from what I heard from Molly, Lilyana is a little monster! Even if Molly didn't say it I could see it you know? So be careful with that little monster! Not all demons are like that cutie Iris!"

Octavia reminded causing the young prince to then adorably nod.
