Tension quelled between the Queen and Ares. The commoner does not back down on the Queen's low sight of him.

"You really do have a sharp tongue, don't you?"

"You say that, but you helped me get away with it anyway. Why did you do that?" Ares asked Eurydice as they walked towards the dining hall in the long, empty corridors. Eurydice boredly swung her head to him while she curled the tips of her hair with her fingers. She shrugged her shoulders and took a deep breath before replying.

"You looked like you were about to burst. You seemed speechless. Is this always what happens when someone asks for your surname?"

Ares lowered his head and watched his feet stroll while he followed behind her. The Queen noticed the passiveness of the commoner when they talked about him. It's as if he tries to speak less to hide his identity.

Eurydice continued walking- her haunting, mighty heels echoing in the long hallway. She kept her eyes on the path ahead while ruminating about Ares's background.

  • The Snow Prince

    Icarai, Desalogia, and the Queen returned home at midnight. Eurydice was still on her carriage. Her eyes were drooping, as she had lacked sleep and a hearty dinner. She had also used a great amount of magic power at the last minute, which caused her body to be even more fatigued. The navigator in charge of maneuvering the carriage was hesitant to wake the Queen up. The navigator decided to visit the other carriage, where Prince Desalogia was transported. When he peered into his window, the prince was still awake and about to light a cigar. "What?" the cold, stoic male asked him with an irritated look."My prince, could I please trouble you to wake up Her Radiance? She's sleeping, and it is cold outside."Desalogia huffed and rolled his eyes before exiting his carriage. He headed towards the Queen's transport and peeked to find Her Radiance's vulnerable status. Her head rested on the cushion, her lips agape, and her hair was a bushy mess. "Where is her room?""S-Shall I have Icarai

  • Father and Son

    "T-The Queen!"Morale was boosted just by the presence of Her Radiance. For a second back there, they thought they were doomed, as they were in no way getting the upper hand without an offensive magic unit. Only the Queen was capable of casting such high spells that could cause the retreatment of the enemy. Eurydice was only a mere split second away from having Fontana's Gates destroyed.If that were to happen, the Tiberyans' invasion would surely become a reality.King Tiberyon was careful to not move. He would have Eurydice's claw lodged in his throat if he did. And that would lead him to poisoning. It would be a lame way to die before the eyes of his soldiers. This was King Tiberyon's greatest deployed army yet. And now, it still came to a stop, just as always. He expected this to happen. Eurydice was a tough royal to fight.She was unlike the former king. King Maxmillian was more focused on maintaining peace and trade. But after the

  • Tiberyon

    Desalogia was waiting at the entrance when Eurydice's caravan arrived. They finally reached the end of the gates and hopped down from their stallions, Lumiere and Noir. Ares's eyes caught Desalogia's. The prince was smoking with his servants. A maid from the Palace was behind them, convincing the prince to avoid smoking as the Queen did not like the smell of it, but Desalogia didn't pay attention. When the Queen composed herself and stretched her slender limbs into the air, she sniffed the smoke from Desalogia's cigarette and coughed. Her spiral eyes focused on the prince, who only smirked at her and looked back at the sky, ignoring her. "That rascal," she grumbled and covered her little nose with her palms before rolling her eyes. Icarai, who was beside the Queen, took a deep breath. He didn't really want to talk to the prince."What are you waiting for?" Eurydice's brows ascended for a bit. "Go tell him." Ares stopped Icarai from going. He smiled, "I'll go if you're too nervous.

  • Euryale

    The Queen entered the young prince's cozy bedroom. She had noticed that Siv's treehouse now had a glass ceiling that allowed him to see the stars beyond. The young prince was cuddling his pillows when his sister arrived inside. He turned his head to the side and gave her a sleepy smile."Do you want me to read you a story?" she asked him while sitting on the mattress and stroking his pale, blonde hair. The young prince shook his head."I'm too old for that."Eurydice chuckled daintily, "You're never old for a story."Eurydice stared at her little brother and realized how big he had gotten. Ares and Siv were correct about him. She didn't have to protect Erron so crazily like that. But Eurydice was afraid she'd break her promise to th

  • Moon Witch's Advice

    When Ares discovered the Queen's illness, he was left with many questions that he knew would never find answers to in the near future. The male played with the young prince despite being distracted. While the two were splashing water in the river, Ares pretended to smile and laugh, but deep inside, he felt rather melancholic about Eurydice's hidden illness. Shortly during their playtime, Eurydice joins them on the river in her bare feet. Eurydice is used to being barefoot. After all, she hates wearing shoes and prefers feeling the roughness of stone on her soles. She likes how it feels. For her, it is the closest thing to pain. "Yay!" the young prince ran towards her sister. "You're here! Are you finally playing with us?""Siv told me to wash my ankles with the water," she told him with a gentle smile and poked the young prince's nose. "Are you having fun with Rockman?"Ares looked away, blushing. Why did he have to adapt to that silly nickname? "Yes, yes! Rockman agreed to train m

  • Mysterious Illness

    While the girls were having their heart-to-heart conversation, Ares spent his time with the young prince in a nearby river. The two sat on a boulder while holding an odd, grimy creature that the prince had somehow caught. Ares inspected what it was, but he couldn't really tell its race. The only thing he realized about the prince's pet was that it was adorable."Here!" Erron stretched his arms to him. "Hold her for me!" Ares offered his huge palms and carried the creature, which almost slipped from his fingers. The creature closed its eyes, savoring the male's warm palms, and slept."Hehe!" the young prince giggled. "She likes you!" "It's just sleeping," Ares replied while looking at it."Not this one," The prince goofily grinned at the commoner. "My big sister, I mean."Ares lowered his eyes, a little embarrassed, "She would be upset if she heard you say that." "Eh?" Erron pouted. "My big sister never gets mad at me. The only time I saw her get mad was..." the prince closed his mo
