In the enchanted realm of Kenichi, where men and elves coexist in harmony, a shadow looms over the once peaceful kingdom. At its center stands Prince Sugi, a young heir to the throne whose journey from entitlement to enlightenment will shape the fat...
It had been two years since the evil forces had been defeated. Maeve strolled through the gardens in the early evening watching the sunset in the violet night sky. Jeon stood next to her shyly looking down at their held hands. Jeon was still struggling to get used to their clandestine meetings afraid that anyone would think less of his love. Afterall, Maeve was married still and he had sworn an oath of celibacy. He had grown up with the strict rules of a palace guard, and even though Sugi had told him he approved of his love for Maeve, he still wanted to be respectful to his prince.
It felt strange to be part of their inner circle instead of standing at the sidelines. In the mornings, they would all have breakfast together and then play with little Yoonki, as Sugi and Maeve had named their son. Yoonki was cute as a button and loved by all especially his grandfather the king. He doted on the cute little boy and found time each day to play with him.
Vante and Fae had gotten married soon after the war and now had their own little baby that would soon be Yoonki's playmate as they were only a year apart. Vante's paintings of Sugi adorned the palace but in the couples' private room there were many depictions of Fae and their baby boy.
With Sugi's help, their lives had not just returned to normal, but they had improved. On the verge of dying, Sugi had used his power to save Jeon, and with Maeve's healing knowledge, his scars were fading with time.
Jeon wanted to kiss his love, that looked so beautiful with her lustrous hair adorned by a sparkling tiara. He stopped himself, mindful that they were now in the courtyard garden right outside the palace windows, but Maeve was bolder and pulled him close to her. Shielded by a stone statue, she kissed his lips hungrily.
"Maeve, stop. Anyone could come by and see us," he said looking around.
"Your elven ears would hear them before that could happen," she said and continued to kiss him.

Jeon jumped as he heard approaching footsteps. It was Jimon with a huge smile on his face.
"Hello, Jeon, Maeve.... Were you two in the middle of something?"
Maeve's cheeks were pink as she smiled back at him answering his question with her blush.
"It's time for dinner. Are you two lovebirds coming?"
Jeon stood in shock his big eyes wide. Jimon playfully winked at Maeve making her laugh.
"Sugi has the children. We are all waiting for you."

Jeon smiled and recalled how accepting everyone was. It was a great time to be alive.
As Jimon walked away, Jeon turned and looked into Maeve's eyes. "I hope one day we also have a little child of our own."
Her eyes were soft with tears that reflected the same longing as his. "One day, you will make a great father, Jeon. One day."
