"It seems my celestial teddy bear gave in to Klarine's long-planned temptation? I'd imagine it was both my negligence and my celestial teddy bear's own doing? So precious yet so reckless! My celestial teddy bears need more supervision! An-And as for my celestial teddy bear's rushed list?"
"Acrobatics, flexibility, precisionry, efficiency, stability, movement, refinement, and elegance? Added suggestions? Ice Skating? Ballet?"
"Ice skating I understand, because Aldra treasured it so much that she had already snuck him into Kethryllia's secret skating spot while he was still both a baby and a toddler! He loved it but I don't believe anyone have ever mentioned ballet-"
Selphie adorably pouted before then adorably cutting herself off having forgotten all about the memory crystal and was immediately reminded by Lily playfully reminding her by slowly waving it back and forth in front of her face.
"Apparently our Aurel relived the life of an Imperial Ophidian Princess! Raised, taught, and experienced much of the same too? What's even more impressive is its grimoire-like effect of it?"
"The memories and the experiences have already been transferred and from what I can take from it he lived a life of a nonexistent Imperial Princess named Aurea Serpa?"
"Princess Aurea was an impressive Mid-Level Archmage, Master Assassin and Fledgling Artisan?
"From what I can speculate, after he finishes absorbing all those potions he will completely inherit Aurea's Inheritance, and with that 'all' of her memories including what she had learned, experienced, and even taught along the way it seems?"
Lily playfully explained surprising everyone in doing so.
"And the same would no doubt apply to his magic knowledge and several other fields as well? As for his list, I can see our Aurel wanting to catch up to where Aurea left off? But outside of all these 'amazing' boons at least he'd still be an Impressive Imperial Princess!"
"I never would have guessed he'd achieve that before he's even able to do the same for his direct royal bloodlines!"
"Imagine being a full-fledged Ophidian Imperial Princess before even fully becoming an Elf Princess or even a Celestial Prince! He was practically born an Elf Princess mind you!"
Lily playfully laughed having felt Klarine had beat everyone to it! Causing Selphie to then all but immediately adorably pout up a storm!
Having realized just that! Klarine had bamboozled them all with her planning alone! Not to mention her celestial teddy bear had gone even further and brought poor Ayla into the mix! Meaning double the bamboozling!
Causing Starla having nothing else to do to then return to her cuddling of the young prince while Sylvia having really nothing else to do either simply did the same?
Surprisingly enough both her and Ayla hadn't really bonded let alone cuddled until now.
Causing Sylvia to then happily accept such a chance before then finally falling asleep herself followed by Aurora leaving only Lily and Selphie causing Lily to then playfully shrug and Selphie to then adorably giggle.
All the while this was happening the young prince had soon returned to Jade's room after ten hours or so resulting in Jade happily stopping time especially since she was finishing up the final touches on an overly extravagant pitcher?
The Pitcher itself was a relic in its truest sense! The same could be said for the twelve similarly extravagant crystal goblets, vases, decanters, cruets, potion bottles, and even wine bottles and eleven more pitchers!
All of which were made with Crystals of Eternity and embedded with Light Crystals!
To put it simply Crystals of Eternity much like the name implied kept its contents as cold and as immortalized as possible!
Meaning nothing could go bad, become deluded, or digress over time! It was quite literally something that stops time of its contents albeit not literally if not have the same effect?
In many cases, depending on its inscriptions it can even increase both the purity and potency of such things over time!
The material itself was priceless but without the proper hands to mold such crystals which in itself was near impossible for most it could only ever be displayed or be used as an investment or perhaps even a gift?
As for the Light Crystals, they themselves have their own effects, especially at the hands of a divine artisan like Jade! In which case it was there for both a display and added purification eliminating poison, cursed liquids, and impurities?
As for the crystals themselves, Jade had made sure to do the absolute most! Of course, there were also several potion bottles that could be used for poison and even amplify it but that wasn't really worth mentioning in her eyes?
Divine Artisans are truly gods in their own fields! Causing the young prince having adorably watched her finishing said pitcher to then adorably gaze to it all in sheer amazement which could easily be displayed by his eyes adorably sparkling up a storm of sparkles!
Causing Jade after noticing this to then happily wave him over before then adorably patting her lap and gently holding his hand before then carefully placing a delicate crystal inscription tool into his hand and guiding it further.
"I saw my bestie's memories and you've 'earned' everything you gained from them no matter what you may believe? The fact still remains that Imperial Princess 'Aurea' Serpa and Celestial Prince 'Aurelius' Vale are still one in the same!"
"You've experienced something so few have and lived a life even fewer could reach in but mere moments!"
"You are Princess Aurea and have already accessed her bloodline so don't waste it and instead follow her example? You 'are' her after all! Even if you're still my bestie? Anyways sorry for meddling!"
"I hate the idea of influencing you on these kinds of decisions but it needed to be said! I can't have you throwing your own rightfully earned knowledge away in a fit of confusion! What kind of bestie would I be If I did?!"
Jade teasingly explained having wanted to make her point clear since in truth she was right! Aurea did become a Fledgling Artisan and even a Mid-Level Archmage and Mid-Level Master Assassin as well!
And she was only fourteen and mastered Ophidian Imperial Etiquette, and became an expert in diplomacy, banking, negotiations, sabotage, mind games, and military strategy as well?
Albeit despite appearances Noel had already done the same at only twelve thanks to Elfine, Kethryllia, Emilia, Aldra, and even Selphie! All of who had only advised and guided her allowing her to make her own decisions in doing so mind you?
The reasoning was quite simple! Noel became The Crown Princess of The Elves while Aurea had only been taught exclusively by Klarine and was only an Imperial Princess and even then the young prince had to continuously absorb all this knowledge once more?
Meaning Noel herself took all of that far more seriously resulting in the young prince being unable even to compete with her even if he were to absorb it all?
However, despite this Noel in truth was almost as unique as Elfine herself so no one could ever truly be her match especially since she suppresses herself in most areas?
Meaning she could in fact still be far beyond what she had told the young prince.
Resulting in a scenario where Aurea who was similar to Noel being in her own league while Noel had her own which was still very much higher due to her future responsibilities and title as a whole?
Causing the young prince having thought of Noel to then adorably nod not truly wanting to ever surpass Noel and in truth very much hoped to learn more from her while Jade had soon continued where she had left off.
"But let's put that aside and finish this masterpiece! From what I learned Aurea became a Fledgling Artisan like your cute big sister Elyris? Even if she's actually more like a Junior Artisan since she did learn directly from Malik! But fortunately my lucky bestie learned from a version of our bestie Klarine!"
"From what I know of those who go through a 'similar' process, they typically always keep their new names after! But they'd sometimes be secondary? And chances are after my bestie wakes up from this training camp, Klarine would no doubt receive the same memories!"
"Just wanted my bestie to keep that in mind! It's a perk of being the 'first' of a greater race! Anyways, let's get back to the topic of Artisans!"
"Despite the name Artisan being thrown around, Fledgling, and Junior Artisans aren't 'True' Artisans who are simply called Artisans?"
"With that being said! Artisans are masters of their own crafts! But remember they're still third from the top! Fledgling Artisans master one profession and become experts in another!"
Jade happily added surprising the young prince by it all even if he already understood bits and pieces causing him to then curiously nod having somehow managed to stabilize both himself and that of his female counterpart even if it's only for the time?
Causing Jade after noticing this to then continue even further wanted to get the rest out of the way so her bestie wouldn't have to burden himself multitasking who's who.
"Right! As for Junior Artisans who master more than one profession and become experts in several others make them the closest to becoming Artisans! However, most Artisans are incredibly unique despite sharing the same title? The reason being is simple!"
"There are simply so many races and with those races come different techniques, cultures, traditions, tastes, influences, ideas, and all that good stuff?"
"Divine Artisans are irreplaceable treasures and strictly loyal assets! And in other cases, even Artisans are seen as quite rare? While both Fledgling and Junior Artisans despite being lower on the hierarchy are still very much thrown into the same category!"
"Coupled with how much an Artisan's Apprentice must truly spend to even reach that of a Fledgling Artisan and their time collecting their own unique knowledge, is surely the reason why it somehow works? Anyways, that's enough for now!"
Jade happily added further causing the young prince to then adorably nod and Jade to then teasingly smile before then reassuringly kissing his cheek and slowly finishing the pitcher as to make sure her bestie could learn something!
Causing the young prince to then adorably nod, in truth the young prince wanted to be Aurea all the while also wanting to stay the same?
Resulting in him finally deciding on the solution itself? He'll simply switch back in forth if not occasionally merge the two while still somehow keeping both Aurea's and his own individuality in the process?
Or simply pull out an Aurea if needed! Wanna be a big bully? Here comes Aurea! Causing him to then playfully giggle at the thought, Aurea 'was' raised and exclusively taught by Klarine herself after all?
Meaning despite his hesitation he gladly accepted it all!
Unfortunately, he had enough restraint and control to prevent outbursts.. at least he had hoped he did?
Causing Jade after noticing that smile to then teasingly smile before then filling Klarine's Special Bloodwine into the finished pitcher and using it to fill two of the many goblets.
"You really want to show off Aurea to your bestie, don't you? It would also speed up the absorption wouldn't it?"
"So let loose and enjoy yourself! You never have to hold back here or with me for that matter! We're forever besties and I won't judge you? Laugh maybe but judging? That's pointless with us!"
Jade reassuringly teased surprisingly the young prince before then immediately remembering who Jade was!
Causing him to then playfully nod before then happily switching to Aurea followed by Jade reverting as well-meaning the young prince's favorite blue Jade had returned!
Causing the young prince or perhaps Aurea now even if temporary to then playfully nod.
"You're really the best.."
Aurea playfully laughed before then gently toasting their glasses having 'really' wanted to free herself all the while ignoring the bit about being a boy now?
Since after all being a girl in a dreamlike state where you lived your life as one clearly had its effects even if the young prince simply wanted to switch back to Aurea sometimes? Causing Jade to then happily smile after noticing just that.
After finishing the bottle Jade was both surprised and not so surprised by the outcome? Causing Aurea to then simply shrug.
"I'm used to it, for all intents and 'purposes' I hope to keep Aurea and myself separate? Funner that way? At least until I find a better way?"
"I suppose something will pop up? Truth be told, I love myself, so I won't throw away who I was and who I am now! Or perhaps one day I'd simply merge the two while occasionally keeping it separate?"
