The war with the Star Empress was finally over. All of the fallen stars had been returned to where they belonged, and the magical girls, Princess Elementine, and Prince Faren had returned. Faren. Her heart still clenched with the remembered pain of discovering that she had lost him and not even known about it. This was the first war when he had not been by her side, and the distance it had caused between them was a gulf that she had no idea how to cross. She wasn't the same foolish, naïve girl he'd left behind, but he was still the same idealistic, courageous boy she had loved, like he'd been frozen in time, and it was causing some unforeseen problems that both of them were dancing around, neither of them quite sure what to do.
