Most of childhood contained questions in which the answers must always be asked for thoroughly explained, or determined from the bottom of your heart. Young Altessa had a curious mind, the tip of her tongue filled with dozens of things she had always wondered about. Her mother had always told her that a good little girl must not poke her head into places where she wasn't supposed to be. In other words, Queen Camellia had suggested her to not ask so many questions. Curiosity killed the cat, after all. Despite her mother's warnings, Altessa couldn't help wonder why this was so and why that happened. She'd even share a few questions with Bright to see if he could give her an answer.

Altessa loved asking Bright anything, because he was the only one who actually listened to her. Much as she loved asking her older brother, she also liked to guess to make sure she was correct. Most of the time she was wrong, but hey, she wasn't the best thinker in the world.

When it was nighttime, the sun had casted its light westbound, and taking its spot was the golden moon. Altessa sat next to her brother on the soft plush pillows as he flipped through yet another book, this time about the legends of nature. As he read about the separation between the sun and the moon, Altessa stole a glance at the bejeweled midnight sky.

"Onii-sama, why is the sun gone?" Altessa asked.

Bright followed her stare up to the shining org hanging lightly among the dark blue. "The sun is shining towards the other kingdoms as we speak."

"How did the moon come out so quickly?" Altessa pressed.

"The Moon Kingdom's moon is on the other side of the Sunny Kingdom, where the Sun's Blessing is."

"Ohhh." Altessa continued staring, and then found another thing to ask.

"How did the moon appear? Did someone find it or something? Wait, it's Moon Maria-sama, the queen of the Moon Kingdom, isn't it?" Altessa cautiously placed a finger on her temple, continuing to think about the mysteries of the kingdom she rarely knew about.

"It came into existance way before our time on the Mysterious Planet,"answered Bright solemnly, thoughtfully juggling the question in his mind as though he couldn't place his finger on it. "We could look it up in the library tomorrow, if you want. It's too late right now."

"Okay,"responded Altessa. She had come to a dead end, where she was out of things to ask and didn't want to bother Bright anymore. Bright returned to his story about the sun and the moon. Tomorrow would wait.
