𝐅𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐘 // 𝒕𝒐𝒍𝒅.

gwyn had been spending an extended amount of time in the castle library, poring over tome after tome with any indication of magic or magical practice. the continued cropping up of portals to other worlds unnerved him, and he had an unending need to understand just what the nature of the portals were, and why they might be continuously developing.

he felt he was on the verge of a breakthrough with the latest book, heavy in its leather binding, so much so that he was entirely engrossed in the words, eyes poring over the words on the page until the world around him faded into an inky blackness.

he hadn't heard merlin come up behind him, but the moment the wizard spoke he started, and took all of his willpower not to chuck the book at the wizard as a kneejerk reaction, opting instead to narrow his gaze at the other man over his shoulder.

"is that what they're for?" he asked coolly, "and here i was under the impression that the court magician was little more than a glorified babysitter for the king." a perfectly shaped brow raised at the other as he closed the book, exhausted from reading for nigh on three hours straight.

The magician lifts the book out of Gwyn's hands, flipping through the pages as if he doesn't know what it was about. "Portals, huh? You know you're talking to an expert in planar travels, right? I brought an entire country here with my amazing magic." He points at himself with the thumb and grins, "I'm never too busy for you, Gwynedd, especially if you're interested in magic." Out of habit, he motions his hand to stroke his long beard... and then remembers he doesn't have those anymore. "So what do you wanna know about the portals?"

gwyn knew that there was a particular degree of deference that was owed to merlin. the elder wizard having experienced far more than the noble could ever dream of. at least, that's what all the books said. and, with the man standing before him now, gwyn was inclined to believe the tales. "sounds like you're quite responsible." gwyn pointed out, a slight smirk beginning to curl on his lips. okay, perhaps he was capable of witty banter with the wizard, even if there was a slight inclination towards maintaining formalities. "i have heard you make your own entertainment."

Aurelius was always happy to see visitors in his kingdom, as such he spent a lot of time around the portal to Corona. Why not? As a prince should he not be greeting diplomats from foreign lands? He thought it was appropriate. The golden haired prince sat on a low hanging tree branch and looked up from his notebook where he had been sketching birds and flowers with colored pencils he had gotten from his father.

corona. beaux was sure he had heard the name before. perhaps somewhere in passing? or was it on a map he had seen recently? his mind began racing a mile a minute that he neglected to respond to auri right away, his attention pivoting instead to the world around him. corona. he could say with absolutely certainty that he had never been here, but it was beautiful. it's name did it adequate justice, everything was bright and vibrant.

beaux caught himself spinning on his heels to truly take in the sight, wanting to commit them all to memory, as to never forget the first time he ever lay eyes on another kingdom. perhaps, one day, he'd bring the beast here and they could share the view together - but that was for another time. slowly, he came to a stop and only when he lay eyes on the blond again did he remember the two had been speaking. he mind reeled briefly to recall what the prince had said his name was. "aurelius." he liked the feel of the name on his tongue, the way his lips curled around each syllable before they curved upwards into a smile. "it's a pleasure to meet you, auri. my name is beaux." he offered a small bow in deference.
