"Let's always stay by each other's side.
Never let go of my hand."
All With You - TaeYeon

It's already 9 p.m. when they finished their dinner. Earth and Fluke are heading toward the Royal Vault from the dining room. Earth's public proposal is in two days. The official proposal for the whole country to witness. That is why he is heading to the Vault.

The Royal Vault is located on the third floor, East side of the Royal Palace. It contains all the precious jewelry, tiaras, and crowns that the Royal Family has. Many of them were gifted from different countries, dated back a few centuries. Therefore, all the jewels in the Vault are priceless. Yes, PRICELESS. They are one of a kind, wore only by Royals. No money could ever pay for their worth. The Vault has high security technology. Only the King, Queen, first and second person in line of succession have access to the Vault.

Every time there is a Royal event, the family would come here to choose their jewelry, including engagement rings. Fluke is helping Earth picking for Kao's engagement ring tonight.

The two Princes slightly gasp when the Vault's door opened. No matter how many times they have came in here, they are still in awe with the beauty of all the jewelry. Every piece has its own history, its own specialty to captivate the human eyes. They head toward the glass tables that hold all the rings.

"What do you have in mind for him, Earth?" Fluke asks his brother while he takes out a sapphire ring and try it on his finger. He saw his father wore it once.

"Something that fit his personality and has his favorite color. He likes black. It cannot be so extravagant because he does a lot of physical activities. I don't want him to feel uncomfortable while wearing it, fearing of damaging the ring." Earth tells his brother. He takes out a band that contains 3 black diamonds surrounded with small blue sapphires around the band. "What do you think of this one?"

"Ouch Earth, you are gonna hurt people eyes with that much diamonds." Fluke manages to pull a joke while rejecting his brother's choice.

They move to the next table when they couldn't find anything that they like in the first one.
"How about this one, Earth?" This time Fluke takes out another ring. It is a black band with a rose gold cut surrounding the ring. There is a white round diamond on the cut.

    "That is a nice one. I like it!" Earth exclaims on Fluke's choice.

    They look for another 30 minutes, taking out some more rings only to put them back. Then, Earth takes out another black gold ring. On top of it is three small diamonds that run down the ring. The three diamonds are in white, blue, and green. This ring was actually the wedding ring of the 20th King of Alethea. It was a gift from Egypt, offer to Alethea for the happy celebration.
