The day at Celestia Dreampark slowly came to an end.
The glowing rides still crossed the skies.
Cosmic fireworks continued blooming above floating islands.
Laughter still echoed behind them.
But eventually.
it was time to return.
A massive golden portal opened before everyone.
Beyond it stood the familiar sight of the Veyris Empire.
Infinite towers of crystal and black-gold metal stretched toward the heavens.
Floating continents drifted above star-filled skies.
Rivers of light crossed the air while dragons flew through distant clouds.
Home.
Lyra's Kaelry stretched her arms.
That was fun.
Kaelignis Veyris nodded excitedly.
Next time we're riding the dragon coaster again.
Five times.
Elyrion Veythera looked thoughtful.
I have concluded that fun is effective.
Umbrythra Veyliss tilted her head.
I understand approximately sixty-three percent of happiness now.
Veyloria Kaelthera quietly held onto her glowing dragon plush.
...I liked it.
The others immediately looked at her again.
Lyra pointed dramatically.
She said another sentence.
Kaelignis looked shocked.
Progress.
As everyone walked through the empire gates, Kael Veyris quietly looked over the city.
The empire was peaceful.
No alarms.
No dimensional tears.
No generals running around in panic.
Just calm.
Beside him walked Ignisia.
She folded her arms and looked toward the skies.
Not bad.
Kael glanced at her.
Then naturally placed an arm around her shoulders as they walked together.
Ignisia blinked once.
Then looked at him.
...You're being unusually relaxed today.
Kael answered calmly.
The day was good.
Ignisia stared for a second.
Then a small smile appeared.
I'll accept that answer.
Nearby, Lilith noticed and smirked.
Interesting.
From the side, Nyx looked over quietly.
The Dragon Goddess appears happy.
Ignisia immediately looked over.
I heard that.
Nyx closed her eyes peacefully.
I know.
Behind them.
the daughters walked together while talking and laughing.
For once there were no enemies.
No battles.
No beings threatening reality itself.
Only family returning home beneath endless stars.
And high above the Veyris Empire.
the skies remained calm.
