Celestial Sentiment XI The Celestial Skyforge II

Before then quickly breaking a teleportation crystal and teleporting Selphie, the young prince, and three of the young prince's guards to the infirmary surprising Holly and another priestess who was previously having a discussion about herbs.

"Wh-What happened?! Is that Aurel?! Put him on the bed quickly! You two! Go inform Bradley and Aldra! And you stay and don't let anyone in! Who knows what'll happen if everyone finds out about their prince in such a state!"

Holly yelled before then noticing Selphie trying her best to calm down while cleaning off the blood from the young prince's face.

Causing Holly to then immediately nod before then performing Advanced Healing Magic all of which surprisingly did very little or nothing at all surprising both her and Selphie.

Causing her to immediately release a Divine Aura all the while still attempting to heal the young prince however this time only partly surprising her once more before then finally sighing with relief.

"For whatever reason, 'something' wouldn't 'allow' me to heal him completely.. however, it was still 'enough'.. unfortunately, that would also mean he'll be in a temporary coma until his body heals the rest on its own"

Holly helplessly explained causing Selphie to then finally sigh with relief as well.

"Holly.. none of this makes sense! I tried healing him earlier but it felt like something prevented me from doing so. It felt as if he was actually trying to resist it?"

Selphie helplessly explained causing Holly to then quickly nod in agreement.

"I felt the same.. he may have had his reasons. Or maybe the coma was intentional? In any case, let's keep this to ourselves"

Holly helplessly sighed causing Selphie to then helplessly nod, moments later Bradley had soon raced to the infirmary followed by Aldra before then finally being greeted by both Holly and Selphie.

"What on Divinus happened? Ho-How could this happen?"

Bradley worriedly asked causing Aldra to then immediately rush over to the young prince.

"We're not yet sure.. and whatever happened we can't heal him fully, he's currently in a temporary coma, for the time being, thankfully he's no longer in any real danger"

Holly reassured.

Causing both Bradley and Aldra to then sigh with relief.

"We'll figure the rest out later, for now, we need to get him cleaned up and into some clean sheets"

Aldra tearily answered before then gently wiping away the blood from the young prince's lips.

Causing Bradley to then helplessly look away before then finally calming down and looking to both Selphie and Holly.

"Does anyone else know?"

Bradley curiously asked causing Selphie to then helplessly shake her head.

"Other than his personal guard it's only us, Emilia, and Celie, o-oh, and maybe Iris and Stella?"

Selphie confessed causing Bradley to then worriedly sigh.

"Those two? I should try speaking to them.. I can already see them worried, oh, and what of Noel and Rory?"

Bradley curiously asked causing Aldra to then helplessly shake her head.

"They were there when I was informed.. they would've undoubtedly known if something was wrong if they haven't figured it out already"

"They were already heartbroken enough that they didn't go with him on his tour, so instead of sulking they had already decided to make it up to him by ensuring he has an amazing birthday by helping plan some of its events"

"I'd imagine it will be especially hard for those two now"

Aldra tearily confessed causing Bradley to then worriedly nod.

After passing out the young prince had soon appeared in his dreamworld surprising both Sylvia and Lily.

All the while Celes and Aurora had already left earlier because Sylvia's Divine Mirror had suddenly stopped working for some reason.

"Au-Aurel? What in the world happened to you?!"

Lilly surprisingly asked all the while Sylvia had immediately rushed to his side with an adorably worried expression.

"Aurel! Please say something?! What in the gods happened to you?!"

Sylvia worriedly panicked causing the young prince to then adorably rub his eyes before then noticing all the blood causing him to then adorably become teary once more before then weakly hugging Sylvia.

"I-I'm sorry! I-I didn't sa-say.. an-and I made her cry!"

The young prince guiltily sobbed causing Lilly to then reassuringly hug the young prince from behind.

"Aurel everything is going to be ok.. but I must say she must've had a terrible temper if she'd beat you to this extent?"

"If I were you I would've already sent that hussy flying into a wall instead.. but hey there's no use in crying over spilled bloo-milk-wine?"

Lilly worriedly joked causing Sylvia to immediately frown before then helplessly shaking her head.

"Everything is going to be ok Aurel.. no one's going to hurt you"

Sylvia reassuringly comforted causing the young prince to then adorably kiss her cheek before then laying down on her chest causing him to then finally close his eyes.

All the while back in the celestial infirmary both Bradley, and Selphie had soon left to check up on the girls before then meeting up with Emilia.

After they had already dropped off both Stella and Iris to Marjorie in the hopes of discovering more of what had happened and also not to upset the girls.

After finishing up Emilia had soon left to check up on Aldra.

Before then being surprisingly being greeted by both Noel and Rory who had adorably sneaked away during nap time in the hopes of finding out more of what had happened.

And to also find out where Aurel was and why he wasn't back yet surprising Emilia.

"Noel, Rory.. what are you two up t-"

Emilia curiously asked.

"W-We want to see Aurel! W-We promised him!"

Noel righteously asked.

Surprising Emilia, even more, causing her to then helplessly sigh.

"Pl-Please mommy Emilia! I-I'll give you kisses-"

Rory tearily begged causing Emilia's heart to then quickly melt.

"I suppose you two can tag along.."

Emilia helplessly sighed causing both Noel and Rory to then excitedly smile before then happily hugging Emilia's hip causing her to then playfully shake her head.

Soon all three had entered the infirmary after Emilia gave them the ok surprising both Noel and Rory after seeing so many of the young prince's personal guards everywhere.

Before then finally noticing both the worried Aldra and the unconscious young prince causing both to then worriedly rush over surprising Aldra.

"Noe-Noel? Rory?"

Aldra tearily asked.

Surprising both Noel and Rory causing both to then adorably look to the young prince before then freezing after noticing the bruises and remnants of blood causing both Noel and Rory to then immediately become teary.

"Wha-What happened mommy? Why is Aur-Aurel hurt?"

Rory tearily asked causing Aldra to then gently shake her head.

"There was an accident.. Aurel was badly hurt but thankfully he will be ok, it's just.. it might take some time for him to wake up"

Aldra worriedly explained surprising both Noel and Rory.

Causing Emilia to then gently shake her head before reassuringly hugging all three surprising all three once more.

"It might take some time but he'll wake up soon enough, so you three needn't worry"

Emilia reassured causing all three to then nod, all the while in The Celestial Sky Forge Hanah who was still sealed away angrily paced back in forth with an angrily worried expression.

"I-I didn't kill him did I? Of course I didn't! He isn't so weak! The-Then why hasn't he tried using my insignia yet?! Don-Don't tell me the Elf bra-I mean he doesn't know how to use it?!"

"Next time I see him I-I'll.. apologize.. wha-what if I played too rough?! Wha-What if he never comes back because he hates me now?!"

Hanah worriedly asked causing her to then immediately become teary before then falling into bed.

"What.. what if.. what if he never wants to se-see me again?! Wh-WHY did I.."

Hanah frustratingly asked before then immediately crying causing her to then immediately release her Dragon Menace.

Before then angrily breathing out a fiery golden beam-like breath at the large golden doors causing the entire Skyforge to then immediately shake surprising both the crew and investigators.

After what felt like an hour the shaking had immediately ceased causing everyone to then breathe a sigh of relief all the while Hanah laid broken on her bed while the previous damage had slowly regenerated itself.

"I-I don't deserve this! An-And the pain isn't going away!"

Hanah adorably sobbed.

Before then exhaustedly burying herself under her sheets and passing out after scattering her clothes around her room and throwing on a loosely elegant celestial-influenced golden nightgown.

All the while back with the young prince he had soon felt something strange before then adorably unburying his head from Sylvia's chest causing his heart to then immediately drop after worriedly remembering a name.

"Han-Hanah?"

The young prince asked surprising both Lilly and Sylvia causing Sylvia to then immediately remember something before then quickly picking up the young prince's previously bloodied clothes.

Causing her to then adorably notice the extra insignia.

"No way.. Aur-Aurel did she give this to you?"

Sylvia asked causing the young prince to then worriedly nod causing Sylvia to then immediately fume in anger.

"She knew! I remember when she gave you that 'friendly' warning but I didn't think much of it before! Celes has some explaining to do!"

Sylvia angrily mumbled surprising both Lilly and the young prince.

Before then immediately opening up a golden rift to Celes's Dreamworld underneath all three, after all three arrived to Celes's Dreamworld.

Surprising both Aurora and Celes causing Sylvia to then immediately march over to Celes.

"Explain! You knew this 'Hanah' would hurt Aurel!"

Sylvia angrily demanded surprising Aurora, Celes, and Lilly causing Celes to then adorably remember something as well.

"Right, that was her name.. I knew she looked familiar. And how would I have known she'd put Aurel into this 'voluntary' coma? All I remembered before was that she was.. 'unstable' and I even gave him a 'friendly' reminder beforehand!"

"I won't 'baby' him to the point that I'd completely ignore his wish to live a somewhat 'mortal' life, if anything it gave him a lot of real-world experience!"

"I can also understand why you're so upset! I hate the idea of him getting hurt too but that's also a learning experience!"

"Even gods get hurt.. so it'll be for the best that he learns from it and decides the rest from there himself! I won't be the one to take that away from him.."

Celes surprisingly reprimanded causing Sylvia to then quickly calm down.

'Now if he was both purposely almost killed or seriously tortured then I'd take it seriously.. Hanah's tantrums don't count as either of those things'

'Not knowing one's strength and being mentally tortured for such a long time can obviously change a child..'

'The fact that she was sane enough to regret it and even send him away to get immediate help confirms this and reassures the fact she isn't fully gone'

Celes seriously thought causing the young prince's eyes to then immediately sparkle with curiosity after hearing Celes mention Hanah.

"I-I want to know more about Ha-Hanah!"

The young prince excitedly asked before then adorably pouncing on Celes causing her to then playfully smile before then playfully flipping him over.

"Seems like your doing better then.. ok then! Everyone take a seat!"

Celes joked before then playfully extending the elegant golden leather sectional after snatching the idea from both Sylvia and Lilly.

Before then carefully laying her head on the young prince's chest.

"Right! That Hanah is actually a Celestial Princess! To be more specific a Celestial Imperial Princess!"

"Her full name is Hanah Claret Vale! And that insignia you showed me originally belonged to The Celestial Empire during one of those Dark Ages"

"Back when they allied themselves with The Dragons and had a 'little' war with The Elves at least until me, Clare, Selphie, and that one Serpent hussy came up with a mutual agreement.."

Celes lazily explained surprising everyone causing the young prince's eyes to then adorably sparkle even more.

"Making both The Elfin Empire and The Celestial Empire short-lived, and only about maybe one hundred to two hundred years before making them revert back to The Kingdom of The Elves and The Kingdom of The Celestial Vale!"

"Hanah was actually a Celestial Imperial Princess the last thirteen years of both Empires meaning she was originally supposed to become The Celestial Empress in her later years"

"However all of that changed when she disappeared making her younger sister Luna the next in line to the throne after their older brother had suddenly given up the throne after making it public he was the one behind Hanah's disappearance.."

Celes helplessly added causing the young prince's heart to then immediately drop before then adorably becoming teary causing Celes to then helplessly wipe away the tears.
