"Otik," she says, softly, "will you be my ------?"

The last word is too quiet to hear.

Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion, that violence has never solved anything, is wishful thinking at its worst.

Her face is bright red. "My mother."

"Y-Your..."

Otik hesitates. A little filly who had just lost her whole family? Of course, she wouldn't hesitate to take her in. But Friesden? She's a grown mare, that's a different matter entirely.

Isn't it?

She remembers her story. The cruelty of her father. The indifference of her mother. Nopony deserves that kind of life, least of all this mare. If she could give Friesden the family she deserved, why shouldn't she?

"A-Aye. Yes. Of course I'll be your mother."

"Thank you...thank you." She begins tearing up, so grateful is she.

Starkey approaches them, laying a hoof on her shoulder.

"No, Friesden. You've been through so much... too much. You're the one who's owed."

Friesden holds both of them close.

They all embrace.

"D'awww..."

A small knot of soldiers has been watching them from the doorway. A glare from Otik sends them scurrying.

Friesden just stays there, drinking in the comfort the two provide.

I wince at Bubbles' volume.

"I've burnt out again.  On purpose.  I doubt I'll be able to even light a candle or levitate a feather for a week.  Isn't it wonderful?"

"Burst out? But why.... Oh sisters... I was right..."
*Bubbles runs out, heading to the triptych.*

I tilt my head, puzzled at Bubbles' sudden exit.  After a few moments, I realize how insane I must have sounded to anypony who didn't know my plan.  I facehoof at my stupidity and try to think of a rational way to explain what's happening.
