“Hope!” Elise was definitely more energetic about it then the more reserved of the princesses.
“Duty.” Sakura clutched her staff close to her chest.
“Love!” Elise raised her staff up into the air.
“Tenderness.” Sakura’s eyes lowered to the floor, though a surge of confidence did pulse through them.
“Compassion!” Elise twirled her staff and the two of them spun around to stand side by side, facing outward with their healing rods brandished forward.
“These are the hallmarks!” Sakura’s voice raised an octave with this newfound determination.
“These are the pillars!” Elise’s own stayed steady and already full of energy, matching the cherry blossom princess.
