[He can understand the uncertainty between the two royals. It's kind of sudden, isn't it? For Elise to find out the prince was in love with him and to know that she was always destined to marry to someone who could never truly love her back. Whether it be Aether or another prince in some other far off land.]
Let's look to the bright future, alright? Princess Elise. I can say with confidence that after tonight, having your presence here with us at the castle is going to brighten the lives of many. And even if the arrangement is less than ideal, don't we have fate to thank that it brought us all together anyhow?
[He holds his and Aether's interlocked hands up, smiling to the prince now.]
And you will bring a bright future to the land as well. Think of this as more of a partnership, working together to make the lives of your subjects far better than the day previous. And, in turn, all of us will be able to live our lives with those who care for us, whether we've met them yet or not.

[He winks at Elise. It'll work out, he promises.]
