Axelius walked back with slow steps, swinging his arms lightly and stretching his shoulders.
He reached the seating area where his family sat, still completely frozen in place. No one spoke. Not the Grand Duke, not the Duchess Eloween, not Cedric or Cyruz. Their eyes were locked on him, wide and unblinking, unable to say anything after seeing something they never expected.
Axelius looked at them for a second then raised his hands in a light stretch above his head and said in a relaxed tone, "Now what next? I wanna rest,"
The silence remained, but Ellory broke it with sparkling eyes and an excited expression as she leaned forward in her seat, her hands clenched tightly together with joy.
"That was amazing Brother Axel! It's so cool! How can you move like that?!" she asked with so much excitement that even Owen was about to bounce again, but Axelius just gave a small shrug, placed a hand under his chin like he was thinking of something else, and said, "You can move like that soon."
