"Do what is right, not what is easier,"

"Tobias calm down, you're gonna have a panic attack before you even reach the throne room," Seto said trying to calm Ty down who was freaking out.

"What if something happens?! What if I trip and make a fool of myself?! What if I forget what I need to say?! SETO HELP ME!" Ty shouted.

"Did you write it down? What do you need to say?" Seto asked looking around for a piece of paper.

Ty's eyes looked away from Seto. "W-Well...I..."

Seto looked at Ty. "You didn't write it down?! Also! Why do you have your sword on you? Must you carry it everywhere you go?" Seto asked.

Ty looked at him. "Don't be a hypocrite, Seto!" he said before pointing at the sword strapped to Seto's hip. "You carry your spellbook and sword with you everywhere you go as well!" he said.

It's been a week since the victory against Vincent Magi and the preparations to bestow kingship onto Prince Tobias are almost complete. Everyone has been hard at work to conduct a coronation that won't be forgotten since King Tobias's coronation will be the start of a new age for the Kingdom of Dragons. Right now, it's thirty minutes before the crowning and Ty was getting ready...until the gravity of what he is about to do finally set in and he started freaking out over it.

Sky pushed Seto and Ty apart, coming between the two. "Okay, we all need to take a deep breath and calm down. Nothing will be solved by yelling and screaming at each other," Sky reasoned before he looked at Ty. "And how do you not know your own coronation paragraphs? Haven't you been practicing them for the last week?" he asked.

Ty nods. "I-I have been! But I just...I don't think I can do this! Can't we delay the ceremony for a few more days?" Ty begged.

Sky shakes his head before he turned to Ty. "No, Ty, no more delays and no more stalling. This is going to happen in half an hour and you can't stop that," Sky said before he grabbed Ty's arms. "You can do this, Tyler. I know you can! You need to take a deep breath and calm your nerves--"

Seto nods before crossing his arms. "Yeah, it's just a kingship you are being bestowed, no big deal--"

Ty looked at Seto. "You're joking, right? Is that supposed to make me feel better? Because I'm not feeling better, Seto! I'm about to be made a king in half an hour! How can you say it is no big deal?! It's a very big deal!" he shouted. Sky shook Ty a big, gaining the princeling's attention back away from the sorcerer.

"TY! Listen to me!" Sky shouted as he shook him. Ty looked at Sky. Sky let go of Ty. "Seto just feels like not being very helpful right now, so just forget everything he said," he said. Sky gives him a small smile. "We've been practicing your lines all week now, you've been working hard. I helped you write your speech and helped you practice it. You have all the tools you need to do this, you just need to use them," he told Ty. Ty stared at Sky as if he was expecting more, but when Sky didn't continue, he grew more nervous.

Ty looked away from Sky. "N-No offense, Adam. But that was a bad pep talk. I still feel like I'm about to have a heart attack. You know how I get in front of crowds and there's the largest crowd out that window right now!" Ty exclaimed. It was true, there was a large crowd waiting, the entire palace courtyard was filled up with people awaiting to witness the start of a new age and renewal of a monarchy. People from not just the Kingdom of Dragons have come to see, allies and old friends have come as well. People like Queen Jessica and King Max have come to see their new ally of a friend they have known for years.
