Memory looked up at the mare in front of him in awe. She was tall and dignified, her hair billowed in a invisible wind and her eyes beamed as bright and intense as the noon sun in summer. In her gaze he felt tiny, and her expression told him she would rather be anywhere but there. Still, he had found her and he did have a request.

"M..my partner could not make the j..journey, so I came in her p..place. P..pl..please we would like a blessing for our children." the buck managed to stammer out. He'd never been the bravest sort, but his mothers and siblings had harassed him into making the trip himself. It was taking all he could do to not cry in front of her as the waves of her powerful aura overwhelmed him.

In Harmony sighed. The quaking male in front of her was soft and not looking for trouble. His terrified look made her feel a little bad, so she twisted her neck and shoulders trying to change the mood into something more casual.

"Don't be so scared." In Harmony said in a slightly more gentle voice. "I'm not going to eat you."

"Oh..Oh!" The overwhelming feeling of power and annoyance had lessened and Memory felt he could breath. His heart was still trying to just out of his chest however, and he swallowed hard. "Thank you so m..much!"

"I have done anything yet." Harmony said flatly.

"SORRY!" Memory squeezed his eyes closed, head ducked down.

In Harmony sighed again, this time deeper and long. "Hey, kid, look at me."

It took a moment but Memory raised his head and looked up at In Harmony. The mare was slightly disatisifed and blew a puff of breath into his face, blowing his bangs away from his eyes. Memory in Ruin's eyes were captured immediately by the mare's golden eyes and he was transfixed. In his head flashed images, his siblings and he laughing, his mother Lotus Blossom doting on him while he was in tears, Roaming Star and her hair streaming behind her in the wind.

"May the beauty of children be equal the beauty of your familial bonds." The sound of the mare's voice boomed in his head.

Memory blinked, his eyes readjusting from being locked in an intense and nearly blindly bright gaze. He looked around, but the mare had vanished. A light breeze tickled his hair and his bangs fell back into place.

"T..thank you." he whispered into the air.

A couple meters away, In Harmony watched the buck in her ermine form. She worried a little, he seemed very...delicate. But, that he made the effort when his partner could not showed that he had at least, a little courage and strength in him. Maybe this would help to strengthen his confidence in the end. Nothing like a few little ones running around to help someone grow into themselves.
