Especially when you're faced with nothing but mere puppets and tools who are there to both distract and hamper you from seeing who was truly behind it which in turn would harm you in any matter of ways be it if you ignore them or if you don't?
Resulting in Jade eventually explaining mind games be it subtle or otherwise, along with anything else related to such things.
Causing the young prince who had felt both lost and angry at the time to then finally calm down having gained what he was missing?
Even if his anger was still there and sometimes he felt lost he knew it was only ever temporary and he wasn't alone.
Causing the now awake Elyris who was simply pretending to be asleep now after hearing much of this to then gently wrap his arm with her tail.
Before then finally returning to sleep all the while causing Ayla to then grab his open arm and Octavia to then adorably pat Elyris's head.
Before then playfully flicking the young prince's forehead causing the young prince to then adorably look to all three before then tearily giggling.
"I love sisters so much!"
The young prince giggled causing all three to then proudly smile, after both the adorable antics and touching moments.
Octavia had immediately agreed to such a camp and was now waiting to talk to Elyris about it even if it was simple whispers back and forth?
All the while the young prince had soon explained it all to the sleepy Hanah and Lily causing both having not been involved with Annie's camp to then immediately agree as well out of curiosity while Keres had also done so out of curiously alone?
As for Kaylan she would have done so anyways? And while this was happening Amber was convincing the others to do the same resulting in everyone else surprisingly agreeing as well?
Especially Molly since this would be her third and she'd finally have both Stella and the young prince together!
The young prince was her first outside of The Sanctuary and was predictable but in a good way!
As in the only predictable thing was of course his immediate improvements and learning capacity meaning she was always on her toes even if she would usually always win?
And with Stella she was the same! The only real difference being she doesn't hold back like the young prince does so despite still being ahead Stella was always tricky!
All the while this was happening Stella happily clung to Molly having never truly trained with her big brother before! The same went for Octavia resulting in Stella happily dreaming away.
After all the talks and convincing, Amber had finally managed to convince everyone rather than three weeks it should be closer to three months!
Causing Nox, Ayla, Katie, Mera, Keres, Hanah, Kaylan, Lily, and everyone else to then ultimately agree especially Lily.
Having wanted to watch the young prince train first hand while Selphie, Aurora, and Sylvia were surprisingly reluctant?
All three didn't wish to distract the others resulting in the young prince giving all four their own section along with another section for Kaylan, Alfy, and Keres!
After Lily had proposed 'testing' the idea how Celes's Dreamverse would actually go meaning they could visit them after training and so on.
While they simply watched, and occasional pop up be it during breakfast, lunch, dinner, breaks, and so forth?
While allowing for feedback on the 'idea' itself and spending that time focusing on busying themselves while the others train.
Resulting in Sylvia, Selphie, and Aurora ultimately agreeing all the while all three finished up this discussion time was soon stopped outside and the young prince was currently in Octavia's arms alongside the still fake sleeping Elyris?
Who only agreed to go anywhere else if she was covered in a blanket causing the young prince having had felt she would be lonely to then adorably join her while sending mental messages back in forth while Stella sleepily clung to Molly and Ayla!
Both Katie and Alfy had already returned to the young prince's bloodline while Kaylan was still actively drinking with Lily!
Causing Selphie to then adorably giggle before then finally stopping time in the young prince's place since he had apparently forgotten to? Causing her to then adorably sigh before then curiously remembering something?
Causing the now exhausted Iva to then finally enter the room after observing the strange Blood Elemental Mist.
Before then cuddling Amber surprising everyone, especially now that they were finally able to see her when she wasn't active or radiating praises.
Causing Amber to then gently wrap both herself and the now sleeping Iva into a blanket before then adorably hugging her to the fullest.
All the while this was happening the young prince sleepily continued the mental message conversation.
Causing Elyris to them mentally nod.
Albeit hesitantly having been updated to both the current events and some history through the joint effort of the young prince, Octavia, and Hanah causing Elyris having been finally caught up to then ultimately calm down.
"I'm a bastard.. I was daddy's alchemy puppet who he gave a title and named his daughter, I don't want his blood in my veins, I don't want to see him again, I.. I-"
Elyris painfully mumbled via mental message before then immediately being cut off.
"You're Aurel's and Hanah's Family! Elyris is a proud brown tailed Inari and Celestial Princess! Aurel's sisters is Elyris's sisters! I.. I want Elyris to be happy.."
"Aurel won't be a bully and force Elyris to do anything! Elyris is Aurel's brown tailed Inari big sister s-so Aurel will protect big sister no matter! I love big sister Elyris.. an-and sisters, mommies, and daddies will love Elyris too!"
The young prince adorably whispered albeit in a mental message as well causing Elyris to then surprisingly smile if only slightly? Before then finally being cut off by Jade's wonderful voice!
"I have an Idea! It might 'sound' risky but bring her with you when you visit me! And to ensure I remain a 'secret'.. just don't tell her I'm a Goddess or even mention demons! Along with obviously not mentioning I'm currently hiding inside of you of course!"
"What are the chances she'd know 'anything' about Demons or me personally?! It's a chance for you to bond with that brown-tailed cutie of a big sister of yours! Then we can have a girl talk! And maybe she'll even join in?! I see this as an absolute win so let's do it!"
Jade surprisingly suggested causing the young prince having had a very similar idea to then mentally shake his head having thought it would be far to risky resulting in him brainstorming before then finally finding the solution!
He'd create a secret mini dreamworld which in itself was no different from his own albeit separate while hidden away from his heaven as to ensure all connections were cut off.
All the while having Jade disguise herself and either creating or using someone else's identity? Surprising Jade before then brainstorming herself.
"Right! I used to go Incognito to travel the world a lot before?! It was one of those secrets that no one 'ever' knew! It was the ultimate getaway from godhood! I went adventuring and so, so many auction houses! It was so much fun!"
"I loved to explore ruins, neglected shrines, and temples, and visiting long-forgotten Godless Demigods! Yes, they exist and there are actually a lot of them hidden away! Same for minor gods and gods without their races! Fun facts are always fun!"
"But the excitement of seeing everything with my own eyes made me super jealous! Mortals are truly amazing beings!"
"So many gods are way too pompous and arrogant to truly care but I did even if I never revealed my identity! The artworks, the architecture, the statues.. all of it!"
Jade passionately confessed surprising the young prince causing Jade to then immediately continue.
"I wish I could do it all over again.. but now my only wish is to experience it all with you! I might still try to go solo to scout sometimes but no one will ever know I was there! Thinking of which! When I played with the mortals I surpassed The Sacred Realm in every class!"
"I also became a Divine Artisan during that time as well! I made use of hiding both my breath and disguising it as something like a Grandmage's!"
"All of which allowed me to attend multiple prestigious academies over the years! Be it Elf, Celestial, Dragon, Serpent, and many others just so I wouldn't miss anything!"
Jade proudly added having felt especially proud now that she was finally able to tell 'someone' of her many amazing adventures that were until up until recently were to be never heard by anyone, not even her creations or demigods!
Something that belonged entirely to herself.. and now the young prince it seems? Believing it was only right to tell him!
Since after all, she did know more of his secrets than anyone else! Along with the simple fact, she trusted him more than anyone else as well making it an even trade! Before then happily continuing away.
"I started my journey at the start of The Greater Races while the 'gods' busied themselves so I made friends with Klarine, Kassandra, Elfinia, Satara, and several others up to the point! Trust me those four were impossible to crack!"
"However! Through my infinite 'wisdom' and my amazing 'charisma', I managed to make them my bestest of friends! Of course, all of this happened in the first few millenniums?! I usually had them squeeze me into their academies and even snuck into a handful of ceremonies!"
"Fun times! But it's weird to think Satara was actually a Void God this whole time?! I didn't even know until your birthday! To think you knew someone! Thinking of knowing someone.. you need some rest!"
"We'll finish this later so for now I'll stop talking your ears off! I'll let you two dream for a few hours so just worry about enjoying those cute dreams of yours!"
Jade surprisingly teased causing the young prince to then sleepily nod before then poking his head out and adorably kissing Octavia's neck surprising her before then finally falling asleep!
Causing Octavia to then proudly smile and the young prince after falling asleep to then finally be greeted by a cheerful Iva causing her to then immediately pounce on him before then excitedly stopping time herself.
"I-I've missed you so much! I-I was late because I had to fix your Blood Elementals! They were so mean! An-And one even tried to seduce me! I-I'm Aurel's forever partner and no one else's!"
"S-So after ensuring their growth and the process as a whole re-remained unhampered and uninterrupted I left and came back! Bu-But I was too sleepy! Forgive me my forever partner!"
Iva sincerely apologized causing the young prince to then surprisingly giggle having happily felt Iva was too cute! Before then adorably wrapping his arms around Iva.
"Iva is the cutest an-and Aurel's forever partner.. s-so no apologies! Aurel should apologize-"
The young prince worriedly apologized as well having felt he hadn't given her as much attention as she truly deserved before then being cut off by a reassuring kiss on the cheek.
"We're connected, you know! We-We'll always be connected on a level no one will ever truly realize, s-so I always know what's on your mind! O-Of course it's mostly feelings and guesses an-and even if you hide it I know!"
"Don-Don't blame yourself or feel any guilt because you can't be with everyone all the time! I-I'm not selfish and I don't want to keep you to myself! I-I only need my forever partner's love and I'd turn the sky red! S-So listen to me when I say you deserve happiness too!"
"An-And I already know of those visions! But even I can't predict it'll happen without ruining everything! I-If I did I'd never forgive myself for taking away something so important to my forever partner! S-So I've decided! I'll follow my forever partner's example.."
Iva tearily confessed before then finally closing her eyes and transforming to something she herself created and kept a secret up until now.
Iva now wore an elegant pristine white, and beautifully inscribed dress and boots decorated in sparklingly white gold and diamonds.
Complimenting her sparklingly white hair, skin, and naturally sparklingly purple diamonded eyes that resembled the ones on her dress beautifully.
And gratefully added to her extremely delicate yet fairy-like appearance giving her an unimaginably peaceful yet heart fluttering charm.
Causing the young prince who was currently in an adorable stupor-like state having unfortunately unblurred her face as 'practice' at the start!
