"I'm sure he would," Dusk replied. "The countryside is lovely this time of year, and Sunlight seems to enjoy...pretty things, I suppose you'd say."

Reaching the nursery, she opened the door quietly and stepped inside. The children's nursemaid looked to the doorway and gave a low curtsy when she saw the royal couple.

Twilight smiled and gave a bow of his head in greeting as he looked around to see how his children were all doing.

Mist was cuddled up to a large pillow, looking half asleep as she just gazed at everyone else, yawning a little.

Roan smiled immediately and began to babble loudly until Twilight walked over and picked him up.

"They've been well, I trust?" Twilight asked the nursemaid.

[Darastrix]

The nurse, whose name was Verena, nodded. "Of course, Majesty."

Dusk settled on the floor next to Mist, tucking her feet behind her. "At least we have plenty of time before Star begins flying," she said as she reached out to stroke Mist's hair. "Sunlight's wings have a ways to go, too."

She couldn't imagine the chaos if Wind wings were fledged at only six years.
