(Please pardon my over usage of old english, I am kinda obbessed. A word of advice, keep your google tab open. And the word " Horatio" is pronounced as huh-ray-shee-oh.)

 After a rejection from Felix (+ a punch) and two uncomfortable hours later. The two princes were at the gardyn. gardyn was impressive and brilliant. One could admire it for hours on end. Bugleweeds had curtailed the fragile brik wall, working it's way to the another side, into the unknown abyss. Its purple blossom grew onto it in peculiar sides, its musky smell prominent as the memorable night. Many trees were planten along the edges of the garden, giving it a oddly satisfying look. Blossoms of every colour were busting at many lanes, yet, still their hearts were colourless. 

The pastri made of the finest walnut brownie, hazelnut chunks encased in a silky whipped ganache and decorated with swirls of milk and dark chocolate ganache  rested on a cocoa shortbread decorated with caramelised cocoa nibs and chocolate thins . It's rich flavour of the chocolate and fluffy cake underneath it, could make anyone melt. It was half eaten, as both were starting of into space, thriving new agendas to ignore this sin

"It is quite claming, isn't it?"

" Yes, freak."

Werig of the ball happening inside, both the Princes cinched to enter one of the thousand balustrades. The balustrades made of white marble, felt cold to the touch of Alex hands. Yet, his heart felt warm and murky of a odd and new feeling. A feeling he could not explain quite well, after all these years of scholarly and preparation. Deep down he knew, but he rather push them away than admit it. He was trapped, yet, not trapped at the same time. Then again, it was not the first time, such a hendirous situation had happened. 

This was nothing new. 

"So, freak, how does it feel being a crown prince?"- F

"It is fine, I persume. May I ask a question?"- A

" Go on."

" Do you really love Clarrisa?"

" I...guess? I mean, she is good."

" Good?"

" I-"

" Your majesty!"

A maid steps in.

" Your mother requests your presence!"

"Ah shit!" 

" I am sorry, I have to go."

" It is fine. Go ahead."

Adien sighs, create a small flames, as he twirls it onto his index and middle finger. His heart aches in pain, he can't stand it. Felix's marriage. 

A flame illuminates the darkness in the balustrades and his heart. Fire is such a peculiar element, one could use it to survive in the cold winters of Arcticflame Ridge of Frostharbor Kingdom or destroy large masses of land in seconds. Alas, Adien would never do that, he prefered non-violence. Additionaly, he was not a heartless beast to do such a morally repugnant thing. He has his morals. Goddness Alina would despise him, if he ever does such a mostorous thing. 

Goddness Alina the goddness of fire. The one who ensures fire is not used for malicious activities. Yet, many go unwatched as she can't look out to everyone who is iniquitous. Therefore, she has given him the dunamis (power) to control and create fire.
