THREE MONTHS LATER
Finally, peace had been restored to Astra falls, the sun was shining and Astra had begun to glow again. All the creatures that were in hiding had finally come out to celebrate with the royal family. It was Dawn’s first time being dressed by a maid and she felt like a princess from a fairy tale book, but technically not all fairytales are just tales. Most of them are real. Today Dawn and Alden gets to be crowned Prince and Princess of Astra falls.

As she twirled around in front of her mirror admiring her outfit, a knock was heard. She went to the door and opened it and on the other side was a simply dress Vincent, in a white shirt tucked in a black trouser, his hair combed back smoothly.
He dropped his jaw in awe as he took in her outfit.
“You look stunning Princess.” He smiled as he held out his hand for her to take it. She took it as he led her down the hall and said,
“You said the exact same thing when you came to pick me up for your party.” She smiled then stopped walking suddenly.
“You knew they would come for her right?” she turned to look at him and he rubbed her shoulder gently.
“I might have had a premonition.” He pursed his lips. “C’mon that was all in the past. Look the sun is finally shining in Astra and it’s all because of you.” He said finally grinning.
“You mean us, I passed out and if you weren’t there, we would be… places.” She chuckled as they continued their journey down to the front of the castle without another word.

He left her when he got to the stairway and took another road to get to the throne room. After telling the announcer she was ready, he stood with the others as she and Alden were being announced in and the music began to play. The doors opened and she slowly stepped out her red floral gown fanning out behind her. Following the tempo of the music, she slowly made her way down the spiral stairs, Alden doing the same at the other side. At the bottom of the stairs, stood their parents waiting to take their hands and lead them to the elders who would crown them.
“Today we all have gathered here for the coronation of our long lost prince and princess who helped save the kingdom of Astra falls from the wicked hands of Yordana.” Chiron said. He gestured to the crown bearer, who brought forth the crowns and stood before him. The two of them were told to kneel which they did and Chiron continued.
“Alastair you recently found out about this great land and even in you disbelief, you saved this great land. It is obvious that without you we wouldn’t be the kingdom that we are today. You have put the kingdoms needs before yours and we are grateful. Today you become the officially crowned princess of Astra falls. Do you solemnly promise swear to govern this kingdom according to the statutes in Parliament agreed on and the laws and custom of the same?”
“I solemnly promise to do that.”
Chiron took the crown, and placed it on her head and gave her a staff as he helped her to stand.
“Alden, you haven’t been to Astra falls for a very long time, but nonetheless you helped to save this great land even though you knew the dangers. You have put the kingdoms needs before yours and we are grateful. Today you become the officially crowned prince of Astra falls. Do you solemnly promise swear to govern this kingdom according to the statutes in Parliament agreed on and the laws and custom of the same?”
“I solemnly promise to do that.”
Chiron placed his crown on his head and gave him his staff as he also helped him stand up.
“I present to you, the crowned Prince Alden Jaison Galeena and crowned Princess Alastair Dawn Galeena of Astra falls.” Chiron said as everyone clapped.
They hugged their parents and waved at the people as they made their way to the castles courtyard where a feast had been setup.
The compound had been decorated richly with ornaments of all kinds, and fairy lights of different colors glowed all around illuminating everywhere alongside the moon.
Soon everyone had settled down as they ate and danced and made merry.
Alden and Vincent signaled each other as they relayed their plan to one another. Vincent took Dawn from where she sat to dance and Alden did the same to Clancey as they all danced.
Soon after they signaled the music to slow down as they both got down on one knee while holding the right hand of their partners who were confused.
“Will you marry me?” they both asked simultaneously as they popped open a ring box.
Covering her mouth, Dawn ran her fingers through her hair as she laughed join by some others. She stopped laughing and nodded her head as she hugged Vince. He lifted her off the ground and twirled her around before dropping her and putting the ring on her middle left finger and kissing the ring.
Clancey on the other hand, looked from Alden to the ring and back to him again speechless. Her body had begun to glow a bright pink as emotions flooded out of her. She looked around at everyone who was staring at her, stopping when she saw Dawn then she looked back at Alden as her glow subsided.
“Yes?” she said quietly. He put the ring on her finger and stood up as she stared at it before looking at him. She wrapped her arms around his neck as he kissed her earning a few laughs and oohs and ahhs.
The satyrs continued with the music and they all danced together all night till they were all partied out.


THE END!
