『There was once a boy who had a father, mother, and younger sister. They were twins, born under the shining moon on the sixteenth of August.
Having golden hair resembling his father's, eyes shimmering like rubellites whenever he smiled. Pinky promis...

Athanasia wanders about in the garden, small hands plucking flowers. She hums a merry tune, jeweled blue eyes shifting to another patch of pink flowers.
"Ah!" She gasps, "I've been out for too long!" Her fruition struck her after she saw the sun nearing its pinnacle. Athanasia could already feel the sweltering heat coming. "Lily must be worried!"
Athanasia compiles all the flowers she plucked in a basket Ces prepared, already on her toes as she began dashing to the Ruby Palace. Her tiny feet brought her to frantic servants running about, confusing the Princess.
Athanasia's pace slows down gradually to a stop, eyes shifting from servant to servant. She was flabbergasted until she heard the familiar mother-like voice of Lilian.
"Lily!" She calls out, "What's going on? Is Papa already back with Felix?" Athanasia walks towards Lilian, the maid discovering the little Princess as she knelt to her height.
"Princess, oh– there you are..." Lilian starts exasperated as if she had just run a marathon. Her blue eyes came off tired but had light in them. This made Athanasia even more troubled.
"Lily... What's wrong?" She inquires again, her hold on the basket lessening. Her brows drooped, another heart-warming expression on her adorable face.
Joy flooded Lilian's face after she took a few breaths. "Princess!" She began with a raised voice, the two having their bubble within the storm of servants. "You're brother is coming home!"
'Eh?'
Lilian seemed to shed a tear. "Oh, how I am grateful they found him," she mutters with a gentle smile while Athanasia's entire body quaked before freezing, eyes widened in shock.
'... Eh?'
"We just got word of the two's return this morning, and then we–..." Lilian's voice dwindled out of Athanasia's ears, the outside world turning blurry as Athanasia zoned out due to pure and impending alarm.
'EH?!' Athanasia's thoughts were in a flurry as her mouth was agape. Series of incoherent speculations zooms through her mind. 'What in the actual hell?! What brother? Claude?! Felix–where is he?! Wait– this morning! A brother? A brother... WAIT– A BROTHER!'
From here on out, Athanasia's mental state went down a drain labeled Insanity. The words Brother and What the hell Claude coming along for the ride.
Her mental state was crumbling—was it just her imagination, or was she turning to fine dust while Lilian went on with speaking? Withering like the burnt tree Claude lit up one time...
