Continuation VII Balance Backlash V

The sound alone was quite reassuring and the humming belonging that of a loving mother full of infinite warmth.

Only now it was doubled and used to immediately extinguish the restlessness within their sweet baby prince.

Causing Holly to then adorably nod and allow the mommies to do the rest since at this point he only truly needed time to recover.

And perhaps the love of his mommies while also being joined by Noel who had joined in quite seamlessly and hummed as perfectly as they did.

While only truly complimenting such comfort? All the while all three comforted the young prince Holly couldn't help but adorably sigh.

"Lady Celestia is most likely fuming at the thought since abusing the balance's consequences, especially when doing so to target one of her Celestial Princes, which is no doubt seen as both a threat and an insult?"

"Normally there are safety measures for such a scenario however they didn't activate because they hadn't expected Lady Fate or whoever it was to ever do such a reckless thing! Especially to our sweet Aurel!"

"Because of this, chances are the gods who know of this would no doubt see this corruption as a threat and create enough 'safety' measures to allow enough detours to distort the balance for a time"

"And with such a realization the balance would no doubt be forced to punish the true perpetrator who allowed such a thing to happen in order to return the balance as it was?"

Holly adorably whispered with an adorably pouting expression since her sweet baby prince who she had played with so much as a baby had been absolutely bullied!

It was more comparable to him getting beaten up again! Neither of which is good!

Causing Silas to then playfully sigh having realized Aurora, Sylvia, Lily, Celestia, and maybe even Fluffle and Inari were furious enough to do just that.

Albeit Sylvia was probably the one looking for the real perpetrator?

She could hunt down Lady Fate without much of an issue so now imagine what'll happen when she finds out who did it?!

Causing Silas to then curiously notice something before then being cut off by the young prince's Unnamed Platinum Goddess coldly staring up to him.

As if she had appeared from nowhere without a sound and was visibly quite upset surprising Selphie before then being cut off herself.

"Lady Fate isn't involved in such matters, she never was, and you knew it? I will only involve myself just this once, do not force my hand or I'll 'remove' the threat at its source?"

"I am autonomous, and I will not allow such threats to threaten my lord's health more than they already have, my birth wasn't of that of impatience rather only action"

"Do not force my hand, you have two choices 'resolve' that matter or I will, I have my own domain to see to without being forced to enter yet another to assure my lord's safety from such significant threats, the weaponization of the balance is a significant threat"

She softly explained however despite appearing unhappy her voice showed known of it.

As if softly reprimanding a child for catching the cat on fire before then simply walking over to the young prince and gently touching the back of his neck.

Ultimately removing the remnants and even that of the minor mana illnesses as if believing the balance was wrong not to resulting in the young prince finally calming down and falling asleep cuddling both his mommy and Marjorie's tail.

Causing Aldra, Marjorie, and Noel to gently sigh with relief and her to then gently nod.

"He shouldn't be forced to endure such things, he is but a child, a good boy? I nullified as much as he would allow, please forgive me for not relieving his pain sooner Ladies Aldra, Marjorie, Noel, and Selphine, this is simply not my domain, and unless the threat 'warrants' it, I must attend to my other duties"

"And unless such threats are ignored once more I'm afraid this'll be the last time I'm seen in this domain, but before I return to my duties I must indeed compliment you all on raising such a truly precious child, I'd imagine his other siblings are also quiet precious"

"I truly wish I could stay and make memories with you all however my fate lies elsewhere, I wish you all a healthy lives and endless joy, and I wish you the sweetest of dreams young lord, farewell"

She softly whispered causing everyone to gently smile before then ultimately disappearing without a trace causing Silas to then playfully sigh and Selphie to then adorably pout.

"You big bully! Lady Shade is precious and she already overworks herself! So don't be a bully!"

Selphie adorably pouted up a storm having known who Lady Shade was but in truth she was the combination of a god like the young prince, balance, and fate all combined within his domain meaning she rarely has a break!

So until the young prince separates those aspects she'll remain overworked!

Of course, the young prince didn't realize to the extent she was being overworked because she simply didn't show it since she was quite the workaholic and barely spoke, meaning this was the most that came out of her!

Causing Silas to then playfully nod especially since he had realized what the young prince had actually done! To incorporate all three things into one was beyond impressive not to mention quite unexpected.

However, despite putting two and two together he knew nothing of her domain. Was he not a good big brother?! Causing Silas to then playfully sigh once more.

Soon enough after two hours Vulpes had returned to Lady Inari in the hopes of meeting his mother and sisters, Vinia returned to Lady Frostma's palace.

And everyone else had returned to their sleepovers leaving only Aldra and the young prince.

Causing the young prince having simply wanted to sleep to use those two hours to then do so.

Before then finally waking up and adorably noticing it looked to still be night resulting in Jade playfully sneaking in the time before then falling asleep as well? So apparently it was four AM?

Causing the poor young prince to then sleepily nod before then admiring the sky and the warm infirmary with a lit fireplace reminding him of his room in Lady Frost's palace on cold nights?

Causing him to then remember he wasn't in his room or Lady Frost's Palace.

Before then finally noticing a now awake Aldra causing her to then warmly smile before then lovingly kissing his cheek causing him to then weakly giggle and Aldra to then gently shush him.

"You shouldn't waste your energy, my sweet prince, I'd imagine you've suffered quite a bit even before such an awful incident."

"You needn't worry my sweet prince.. as your mommy, I will remain by your and your sisters' sides and love you more than the definition would ever allow?"

"Be it holding secrets, giving advice, simple comfort, a even simpler walk? Or anything else for that matter, I'd be willing to do so if it means my sweet children will never suffer from such loneliness or heartbreak, I will forever be your mommy my sweetest Aurel"

Aldra softly whispered causing the young prince to then sleepily become teary before then snuggling his mommy.

After snuggling for quite a bit the young prince couldn't simply take it anymore and finally broke down telling his mommy everything that happened.

Before then finally showing her the ornate jewelry box filled with those four crystals resulting in Aldra after looking through them to then reassuringly hold her sweet baby prince as much as a loving mother could?

Causing the young prince after finally calming down to then adorably hold his mommy as if he was scared to let her go and the same sentiment came from his mommy having seen the awful things he had experienced and the reasons behind his PTSD.

For a child to experience such things especially when it's your child.. It's simply painful beyond words and she was here for her baby no matter what he wished to talk about, vent, or anything else for that matter.

Resulting in the young prince after thirty or so minutes of this to then sleepily look up to his mommy before then adorably freezing time so he could spend as much time as he could with his mommy..

He simply loved his mommy so much and no matter how much time it takes it'll never be enough so the least he could do now was tell his mommy the truth.

Causing Aldra to then gently look to her baby prince and the young prince to then adorably nod.

"Mommy.. I want to tell mommy everything.. I want mommy to know because I love mommy so much! Mommy is everything to Aurel and I.. I can't hide things from mommy!"

The young prince tearily confessed causing Aldra to then gently nod believing no matter what her sweet baby prince should get everything off his chest causing the young prince to then tearily nod before then kissing his mommy's cheek.

"I.. I want to talk but it's hard. Aurel wants to say Aurel but for mommy, I need to be better.. s-so Aurel is sorry if Aurel sounds not like Aurel. I want mommy to know that I'm.. a god but only sometimes! I.. I want to stay Aurel an-and make sure both are separate!"

"An-And.. Aurel's god name is The God of Light. Aurel created Light Elves, Light Demons, and Bright Elementals, and accepted Vinia's and Vina's creations. The-They need heaven too.. an-and Aurel has a world for creations bu-but it's Aurel's biggest secret!"

"An-And Aurel has a list like daddy? I-I don't like Wood Elves and Dark Elves for betraying Void Elves and killing innocent demons.. I-I love sister and big sister Amelia s-so Aurel doesn't hate? And Aurel can stop time.. Aurel stopped time to spend with mommy"

The young prince adorably confessed before then shyly handing his mommy his list surprising her.

Before then surprisingly adjusting quiet quickly and simply accepting everything he had said as fact.. she also had the bloodline lie detector and even without it she would've believed her sweet baby prince.

Especially since it seemed as if he wished to tell her this, and perhaps even more for such a long time.

Causing her after being told all this to then gently nod and allow him to continue causing him to then adorably snuggle his mommy by doing so.

"Big sister Vina gave Aurel The Blighted Spears of Senex as a birthday present? Three hundred and fifty Sacred Realms an-and six hundred and fifty Legendary Realms.. big sister said it was comparable to a Mage Chapter?"

"Bu-But presents are too much! I-I like dresses, makeup, jewelry, an-and what mommies and sisters wear.. I-I don't want to change.. I want to stay with mommies, daddies, and sisters forever.. I want nap time in the garden and to play with sisters?"

"I want to stay with mommy.. I'm scared Aurel will lose these precious things.. all I wanted when Aurel experienced those nightmares was to stay with mommy and daddy and play with sisters.."

The young prince tearily cried even further before then telling her quite literally 'everything' that he believed would never endanger her or mention Stella.

Essentially getting everything off his chest and remaining in the blissful embrace of his mommy.

Causing Aldra having patiently listened and absorbed all this with the utmost openness, warmth, love, and understanding, to then gently nod.

Having understood everything even if it required her to use her previous knowledge from Selphie, Silas, and Elfinia so she could truly understand her sweet baby prince when it came to these matters?

And in truth despite appearances and her simply never speaking of such things, she had indeed known quite a bit.

As a child, she used to play with Selphie in her dreamworld and with Lady Inari's tail on occasion.

Much like the young prince she loved tails quite a bit but had even more self-control now resulting in such displays never truly being seen.

Causing Aldra after gently rubbing her nose on that of her sweet baby prince's.

And adorably kissing his cheeks time and time again while he remained in utter bliss to then finally give her thoughts while still doing so in a motherly manner as all mothers should!

"My sweetest Aurel.. I'd imagine at times I'm truly unable to contain myself at such preciousness be it Rory, Elisabet, Stella, or any other of my precious daughters. To be able to give birth to such a precious baby boy was always a dream of mine, let alone twins I believe?"

"Laurel is truly precious, be it bloodline aspect or not to finally have a twin for my sweet prince is truly precious beyond words?"
